Behind the scene of a retail shop .....
I always thought setting up a Business is quite manage-able when you have the passion in it. Apparently, its too early/wrong to say that. A good friend of mine own a retail shop and occasionally i will drop by to give him my support and help. The workload is crazy! You've got to deal with so many stuff like managing your workers, coordinating with suppliers , checking inventory system , designing , mailing out items , tagging , microsoft office , satisfying customers which are always so demanding ( In sales line, customers are always right ) , travelling for work purposes... etc You have to make sure the entire system works well so things will process smoothly. Its not easy at all, really! Heavy reponsibility where you have to account in every single mistakes you make. And there are absolultly no excuses when things go wrong.
My dearest boss, I know it must be tough and stressful for you to handle so many things. But, i'm certainly sure that you can pull it through because you're really capable =) Afterall, What that doesn't kill you makes you stronger ! Don't let the suppliers affect your Biz, these china suppliers are really unethical. Just bear with them and the stormy days will be over soon.
You know i'm always here to lend a helping hand and feel free to pass me some work load if you need help.
Cheerios and wishing you great sales ahead. Strive on!
Thanks for teaching me / sharing with me the 'secrets' and giving me the oppurtunity to learn =) You bring the word selfless to another level!
falling in love~
