All Things Retail #7: After Profit, Margin is the Best Word in Retail

It’s hard to believe we are on Issue #7 already. Please let us know how we are doing. If we are not adding value to your business, we need to do better. If we are adding value, please share All Things Retail with your friends and co-workers >>> Before we jump in to the content, I just wanted to share feedback I am hearing that the world of retail is getting better and better. While we are not back to “normal” quite yet, there are signs all over (consumer spending, retail sales results, shopping center traffic) that we will be there very quickly. What is most encouraging is that I am hearing these bullish comments directly from retailers, manufacturers and service providers and not just the news. Those merchants that are leading the way are doing a “mash up” of their best practices from pre-Covid and combining them with new learnings from during Covid. The result is a higher level of service and an improved consumer experience and it is working! While last year was hugely challenging, the future of our businesses is once again within our control. Let’s spread the word and have a superb remainder of 2021!
