Why Use The Business Academy (consulting)? Here are 4 Reasons! Inventory Management “Edge Retail Academy’s counsel –particularly on inventory management- has been very beneficial to our store’s business. Our business advisor has provided us the tools to carefully monitor our inventory levels by category, vendor, and age. When our inventory is out-of-balance or aged, we have developed processes with Edge Retail Academy to work closely with our vendors to rebalance. This focus on healthy inventory levels and aging has resulted in a double-digit revenue and profitability increase over the last year.” Kristin Laughter Parker’s Karat Patch, NC
Business Growth + More Success “We have received many benefits from the Edge Retail Academy. The Edge Retail Academy brings ideas, critiques, and a whole host of advice and recommendations that most businesses, and particularly jewelry stores just don’t have access to. We continue to use them in many areas as we streamline, improve, and grow our business. Two things among many that were a direct result of engaging the Edge Retail Academy are: 1) increasing our gross margin by 20% and 2) a highly effective plan for moving old inventory. If you aren’t using the Edge Retail Academy, you are really missing out on the true potential of business.” Joe Thacker Thacker Jewelry, TX
Strategies For New COVID-19 Era “Our Business Advisor at the Edge Retail Academy has been awesome! During the Covid-19 crisis, she stayed in touch with me while we were closed. She offered many tips, encouragement and even taught me how to clientele from home! I have learned so much using the Edge Retail Academy. We are back open again and reaching our aggressive goal, which is amazing! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to improve their inventory numbers as well as cash flow.” Annette St Romain Bijoux Fine Jewelers, LA “Since working with The Edge Retail Academy, we have gained new insight and a clear perspective of our business. Their advice and counsel have helped us navigate these unchartered waters of COVID-19 with a comprehensive plan for sales and safety. Most importantly they do this with encouragement, support and a sense of humor. We are so grateful to have The Edge Retail Academy in our corner and highly recommend them!” Valerie King King Jewelers, MA Edge Retail Academy is available to provide guidance and strategies in all areas of your business, including properly adapting in these challenging times.
