Smart Retail: Turn Your Store into a Sales Phenomenon

This book not only taught me all I needed to know but gave me confidence and passion to go ahead and be a great team member. I made notes all over it as by page 2 I knew I wasn´t going to be passing it on to anyone else!

Easy reference, interesting to read - I took it on holiday - excellent section on people management and lots of information and advice that would apply to most office jobs, work teams and managers everywhere, not just in the retail industry. Also written by a normal guy who has had a long and successful career in retail, not a stuffy professor with a PhD. Thoroughly recommended.

I bought this just as we were opening our first shop. It's quick to read, makes sense and is easy to remember. Even so, I still have it by the bed and go back to it when I need some new ideas. I just wish there was a number 2 version with more detail. Loved it.

I read this book on the recommendation of a friend who had just opened a shop called The Nice Cream Company in Shrewsbury, she read it, found it essential reading for a new business and then passed it onto me. After reading it, and passing it back, I found I could not live without it and purchased a copy myself.
It is rare to find such a amount of excellent advice in a format that just made complete sense and would help me make my own business, Sportology, a success, Or at least give it a fighting chance.

A must read book for any new business with no experience of how to turn your great idea, into working success.

thanks for the advice
