Publisher's Summary:
My name is Julie Hoffman. I am a 44-year-old mother of two. I was an A/R supervisor for an oil company for 21 long years until the day they outsourced my job, and I suddenly found myself unemployed. I was devastated, heartbroken and felt betrayed all at the same time. I had $18,632 in my company retirement account, and they paid me two weeks of salary as a severance payment.
After recovering from the shock, I started to apply for any and all jobs I could find online, but sadly didn't even land one interview. Around this time I read a success story about a lady who owns three thrift store business in Kentucky. I became inspired by her success and found a way to contact her.
We spoke for a while, and she seemed genuinely nice and helpful as I told her my situation. She explained to me that this is one business which doesn't require many skill sets but only some serious dedication and passion to be successful. She said anyone could do it. She gave me some pointers and told me to work on them and to call her if I needed any help.
A week after we first spoke, she called me up and offered to start a partnership venture with me, I was delighted, a little shocked and very happy to have her as my partner. So our journey started.

Great Book For Entrepreneurship
Julie Hoffman, author of the book âHow to Start Run and Grow a Successful Thrift Store Business On and Offline,â writes a great book about entrepreneurship at its best. It is a step-by-step guide. However, the added component of online sales is an excellent aspect of the book. It is a fascinating story coupled with knowledge and encouragement. I strongly recommend this book for any one venturing into the thrift-store business.
Good basic understanding of what it takes to open this type of shop
I believe this type of book is meant as an opening towards an understanding of what it takes to get into this business. It contains great information. I admit that the author is not a writer and it would help a bit to get more sales if there was someone reviewing it in order to give it more details and formulate the sentences differently, as well as attract more readers. That being said, I don't want to put down the fact that the book is meant to make us learn exactly what it takes, and that's what the book did: tell me what I had to have ready before, during and after the process of opening a thrift shop. I don't see why some people called this book a scam when the information in it is all about how to prepare, what paperwork needs to be done, the contacts that have to be made, and so on.

Not sorry I purchased it, I did get a few ideas from it, but I read it in about 15 minutes and most of the info was very basic and mostly common sense.

This is a terrific book. CSB Academy's books for new businesspeople always have a ton of great information. And the information doesn't just apply to the specific topic of the book (in this case thrift stores) but to business in general.
