Start your retail business off right for 2019. Owning and operating a store remains one of the best opportunities. It much more than simply leasing a space, adding products you like and the consumers will magically flock to your store. Instead, it is primarily about understanding your local target audience and how to move product and manage staff.

The class is designed for anyone who is in the retailing business and/or interested in opening a retail store. The class covers all aspects of retailing best practices and real-world marketing.
