Retail

We grow Retail Businesses like we grow any other business, through the Great Performances 3-Cycle approach. Some of the opportunities and challenges unique to retail that we address include:

Recruiting, staffing, and training. A huge part of retail success, especially in a bricks-and-mortar business, is conditional on the behaviour of your employees. We help you hire the right people and train them to provide the best possible experience for your customers.

eCommerce. It is becoming increasingly difficult to remain competitive in a purely bricks-and-mortar incarnation. Extending into, or moving entirely to, online sales is critical for growth and even survival. We help you prepare your business to succeed online and can provide you with all of the tools to build a profitable eCommerce presence.

Inventory and Cash Flow. Retail can be one of the trickiest places to grow aggressively because of the cost of inventory and expansion. We help you develop inventory, pricing, and cash flow strategies that allow you to grow without falling into the trap of ‘growing too fast’.

Marketing. Where B2B (Business to Business) and retail are most different is in their marketing challenges. The incredibly competitive world of attracting consumer eyeballs and footfall means that your marketing must return real and profitable returns. We use both traditional and online tools to drive growing traffic through your door.
