Here are 3 salient examples of why we need to constantly thank the veterans in our industry for their support, service and generosity. (I thought this post would be fitting for today, since it’s Veteran’s Day).
Recently, my wife & I visited a store in Ohio and asked the owner the one big reason for her growth, to which she replied, “Connecting with other veteran store owners at the industry events and expos. Period.”
According to the book, Retail 101, by Nicole Reyhle & Jason A. Prescott, among the top 10 action guides to grow one’s business include the following: “Do you actively seek outside, external resources to help you learn more about managing your business, possibly including a consultation, education course, or other learning scenario?”
And finally, my store’s example is perfect too. Without seeking help from the veterans in our industry, we could not have grown, planned to grow or properly marketed our business model to the outside world.
So today, I would like to thank all the veterans in our industry for their service, support, kindness and generosity in helping fellow store owners achieve their true potential, whether it’s in merchandising, marketing, retail or wholesale opportunities.
Thank you to our Veterans as well, for their service to our country, for their unparalleled bravery and for their unyielding patriotism.
With gratitude, kindness and effervescence,
