Consulting delivered 100% remotely — from Bayonne, NJ to Bozeman, MT.

The squeeze

Running an independent store has never cost more or paid less attention to.

You're not imagining it. Independent retail is under real, measurable pressure — and most of it compounds if it goes unaddressed.

01

Rising rent and labor costs

Operational costs now rank as the #1 challenge for independent retail and grocery operators, cited by 83% of owners.

02

Big-box and e-commerce pressure

77% of independent operators name big-box competition as a top concern — and it shows up first in your margin, not your foot traffic.

03

Thin, inconsistent margins

Inflation has been the #1 challenge for small businesses for 17 straight quarters, quietly eating the margin you thought you had.

04

Inventory that fights back

68% of independent operators cite inventory management as a top concern — overstock ties up cash, understock loses the sale.

The My Retail Experts approach

One operator, three ways to get hands-on help — matched to how ready you are.

No enterprise consulting fees, no jargon-heavy decks. Just a clear sequence: find the leaks, fix them, then keep the system running.

01
Audit

Retail Health Audit

A focused, two-week review of your merchandising, pricing, inventory turns, and margin leaks — delivered as a prioritized action plan you can start using immediately, with or without further help.

02
Sprint

90-Day Profit Sprint

Hands-on implementation support to actually execute the fixes: inventory optimization, pricing corrections, and a lean marketing calendar your team can run without you micromanaging it.

03
Ongoing Support

Course & Membership

Once the fundamentals are in place, The Retail Profit Playbook course and the My Retail Experts Circle membership keep you sharp with templates, monthly coaching, and a peer group that gets what you're dealing with.

Who this is for

She's squeezed by rising rent and labor costs on one side, and big-box and e-commerce competition on the other — and her margins move around more than she'd like.

She wants practical, affordable expert help — not enterprise consulting fees — and she'd rather implement fixes herself with her existing team than hand the business to an outsider.

She's done the deep-dive strategy session before and watched the deck collect dust. This time she wants something she can act on in the same week.
