Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Unlike other books on retailing, Specialty Shop Retailingis aimed at the reader who has a dream of opening a store, but little background in this type of business. The book takes into account the fact that their motivation is often not primarily monetary, but rather the intangible benefits of creating your own business and working with people and products that you love. This new and improved 3rd edition includes material about selling on the Internet, including eBay storefronts; online marketing and customer service improvements; and changes in the retailing field, such as competing with big box retailers and the demise of the sales rep system.

Contraportada:

New tools and innovative ideas for retail success

"This book should be required reading for anybody considering opening a retail store. It helped me formulate my idea and became my retail bible for my first years in business. As I read it, I began to highlight sections that I felt were most relevant, however, that meant highlighting almost every page—and now that somewhat raggedy book is a luminous green on nearly every page."
—Mark Holmes, Baba's House, gifts & home décor, North Vancouver, BC
