From the<br />

PUBLISHER<br />

Here’s To A Prosperous New Year<br />

OVER the last 41-years that I have<br />

published this magazine, there were<br />

probably about half a dozen times that I<br />

started out the <strong>January</strong> issue with “Good<br />

Riddance to Last Year!” I have to recycle<br />

that sentiment for 2021 and hope I won’t<br />

have to use it again!<br />

RETAILERS had a tough run for<br />

the last couple of years, albeit 2021<br />

was considerably improved over its<br />

predecessor. With the pandemic, that<br />

we are hoping will be reclassified an<br />

endemic soon, many of our businesses<br />

ran on fumes. We’ve lost many retailers<br />

and wholesalers who will be missed.<br />

Those who toughed it out have figured<br />

out ways to make their operations run<br />

lean and mean.<br />

THE best news in our market is that<br />

there are so many new businesses<br />

opening up. Many displaced workers<br />

are starting their own merchandise<br />

businesses. Some are online, others in<br />

their local neighborhoods. I personally<br />

see this by the uptick in mentoring<br />

requests I am getting from my local Score<br />

SBA that I volunteer with. We also see<br />

that there were more new store openings<br />

than closings which is a great indicator<br />

that we are getting back on track.<br />

OWNING and operating an<br />

independent business is one of the<br />

things that make this country great.<br />

While we’ve spent the last two years<br />

fighting archaic covid restrictions and<br />

recently find ourselves fighting to keep<br />

the “American Way” lifestyle, we have<br />

survived. The future is looking bright and<br />

>> ON-LINE SOURCING<br />

according to all forecasts we should see a<br />

greatly improved <strong>2022</strong>.<br />

WITH the new year should come a new<br />

look at your business. It is time to restock<br />

your shelves and website offerings with<br />

new and exciting products. Reach out to<br />

make connections with new suppliers.<br />

The trade shows are restarting and<br />

there is no better place to rekindle the<br />

enthusiasm for your business.<br />

MANY wholesalers are also changing<br />

over their lines and that is a great time<br />

to get some great deals on merchandise.<br />

Just buy smart. Sometimes a closeout<br />

means that demand is gone. Other times<br />

it only means that the wholesaler needs<br />

to liquidate to raise funds or if they have<br />

overstock. Take advantage of the markets<br />

and buy smart for your business.<br />

TIME to dust off your unsold goods<br />

and mark them down to clear them out.<br />

You can also donate merchandise to<br />

charity and take a full deduction. Keep<br />

this mantra in mind, “if it didn’t sell last<br />

year, it probably won’t sell this year.” Turn<br />

your old goods into funds to buy new<br />

goods.<br />

WE’RE proud to be media sponsors for<br />

almost three dozen trade shows for <strong>2022</strong><br />

and will be circulating our magazines<br />

freely and promoting our wholesalers.<br />

Please patronize our advertisers who are<br />

some of the best in the business. And be<br />

sure to come by our trade show booths<br />

to say hello and pick up the latest issue.<br />

ONWARD and upward. Let’s make <strong>2022</strong><br />

our best year ever. Happy New Year!<br />

to ask about this month’s HOT item, dog breed spinners to increase<br />

your sales and margins!<br />

CLOSEOUTS MEANS PROFITS<br />

EVERY business needs to have great margins and this rings true<br />

especially for retailers of general and variety merchandise. It;s tough to<br />

make high margins on most items which is why smart retailers and online<br />

sellers watch the closeout markets to add merchandise into their regular<br />

lines. Closeouts can often be purchased for pennies on the dollar and<br />

make for extra profits for your business.<br />

CLOSEOUTS are not damaged goods - they are simply overstocks,<br />

overruns or merchandise that comes from closed stores, discontinued<br />

lines or packaging changes. When you buy closeouts you can mix these<br />

goods into your regular lines and make 200-500% margins while still<br />

selling at a discount. Our updated Closeout Directory teaches you how<br />

and where to buy them. $29,.95 print/PDF.<br />

RETAILING NEWS<br />

Pandora Chooses Physical Stores Over Amazon<br />

JEWELRY brand Pandora, which is a $12.3 billion brand operating 2600 stores globally says that it will be<br />

investing in physical stores rather than join e-commerce platforms like Amazon or Farfetch. They feel that<br />

they already have an audience and do not need the exposure from those sites and feel that opening the<br />

physical stores will connect better with their buyers.<br />

WITH over 2600 stores globally, Pandora does around 62 percent of their business at brick-and-mortar<br />

stores. This decision to invest more in physical stores is certainly encouraging to all retailers in that realm.<br />

Wayfair To Open Three New Physical Stores<br />

IN more exciting news for the brick-and-mortar retail scene, Wayfair, one of the largest furniture and<br />

home goods sellers in the USA becomes the latest online retailer to expand their physical presence. Wayfair<br />

will be making their biggest move ever on expansion as it opens three new stores. At the moment Wayfair’s<br />

outlet store in Florence, KY remains closed due to covid and the reopening date is being determined now.<br />

THE new stores that are being set will showcase furniture, bedding, housewares and other home items.<br />

Shoppers will have the option of having their purchases delivered directly to their homes after making their<br />

buys.<br />

WAYFAIR had been experimenting with brick-and-mortar stores as far back as 2018 when it opened<br />

several pop-up shops followed by a full service store in Natick, MA. That store closed permanently in 2020.<br />

The company does over $14.1 billion a year and feels this shift back into physical stores is necessary as<br />

shoppers want to touch and feel items before making their purchases. Additionally, shipping from a store is<br />

often less expensive than shipping from a warehouse as well as physical sites being a much less expensive<br />

way to acquire customers versus digital marketing.<br />

THE retail industry has gone through a major shareout over the last couple of years, during which<br />

traditional retailers closed thousands of locations. In <strong>2022</strong> we will see retailers open more stores than they<br />

close for the first time since 2017, which is quite encouraging for all brick-and-mortar businesses.<br />

MOST of the new growth is coming from dollar stores, convenience stores and off price chains, but<br />

we have seen that many other retailers are retrenching kike department stores and mall-based apparel<br />

chains which are closing fewer stores. Perhaps the end of the brick-and-mortar apocalypse has come.<br />

Everything’s Bigger In Texas<br />

RETAILERS are heading to Texas in a big way. New clothing, fragrance stores are opening in NorthPark<br />

along with the new look of Levi Strauss. The resurgence of retail is on the way and its first stop appears to<br />

be NorthPark Mall where many well known top brand retailers are opening shop, including many start-ups<br />

who are dabbling in brick-and-mortar and seeking their fortunes at this fast growing mall that has seen a<br />

tremendous growth of selling space. Hopefully a sign of the times for us all!<br />

Continued from last issue...<br />

YOUR ELECTRONIC EMPLOYEES<br />

THE FAX MACHINE<br />

The fax machine is already as basic to the office<br />

as the telephone. If your store sells anything<br />

more than the morning paper, the business will<br />

benefit from a modest investment in a fax machine.<br />

In an age that thrives on instant access to<br />

information, the fax sets up a communications<br />

link with anyone, anywhere, anytime. You<br />

wouldn’t think of telephoning a supplier at<br />

midnight when you finally finish your inventory<br />

check to place next month’s order. You can<br />

fax it in, though. That same convenience applies<br />

to your customers. They can place orders<br />

with you around the clock, or when your voice<br />

phone is busy, by fax.<br />

As valuable as the fax is for ordering, it’s a<br />

uniquely useful tool for transferring printed information<br />

whenever it’s needed. Suppose your<br />

distributor is out of stock of the product you<br />

order, but suggests something similar. As soon<br />

as you’re off the phone, you can be reading the<br />

specification sheets on that item, sent via fax.<br />

And think of the promotional possibilities. Suppose<br />

your store’s specialty is industrial cleaning<br />

supplies. Your latest stock check reveals<br />

you’ve over ordered and have an abundance of<br />

Brand Z vacuum cleaner bags sitting on your<br />

shelves. You’ve got to unload them, and free up<br />

those inventory dollars. You work up a special<br />

deal, and distribute it via fax to customers who<br />

are big users of that particular bag. They take<br />

advantage of the deal, ordering by fax. Within<br />

2 days, you’ve reduced the inventory to the appropriate<br />

level.<br />

In the smaller office with limited needs, the fax<br />

can also do double duty as a copy machine. You<br />

wouldn’t want to run off hundreds of sales flyers<br />

with it, but when you need one or two<br />

copies in a hurry, the fax machine’s copying capabilities<br />

serve well.<br />

Before you head out to purchase your fax, determine<br />

how it’ll be used. Then decide how<br />

many phone lines you’ll need installed in your<br />

shop. You’re already paying the phone company<br />

to have one phone installed; there’s no<br />

reason to pay for another service call. If your<br />

fax usage will be limited to business management<br />

chores – correspondence with suppliers,<br />

placing orders, and the like – you can probably<br />

get by without a dedicated fax line. If you use<br />

the Call Waiting feature on that line, make sure<br />

you can disable Call Waiting service or you’ll<br />

lose your fax transmissions whenever another<br />

call comes in. On the other hand, if you plan to<br />

publish or promote your fax number, and encourage<br />

customers to use it to reach the store,<br />

you’ll need a separate line for the fax machine.<br />

SELECTING A FAX MACHINE<br />

THAT’S RIGHT FOR YOU<br />

Even the most inexpensive fax<br />

machines offer more features than<br />

the retailer is likely to need.<br />

FORUM WORKSHOP<br />

If you plan on using the fax as a promotional<br />

tool, announcing special sales to a select group<br />

of customers, look for “broadcast” capability.<br />

Faxes with this can be set to automatically dial<br />

a list of fax numbers and transmit a document<br />

to each, unattended. Models with a “delayed<br />

calling” feature let the user set the time to make<br />

these calls, say, after hours when the phone<br />

rates drop. A built-in memory is a valuable feature<br />

if you’ll rely on the fax as an electronic<br />

order taker. Should the machine run out of<br />

paper, it’ll store any received documents in<br />

memory until it’s reloaded with paper. Without<br />

a memory, you stand to lose the orders.<br />

<br />

The main decision you must<br />

make is whether to buy a plainpaper<br />

or thermal-paper fax machine.<br />

This is where the price<br />

your<br />

Page 32 JANUARY <strong>2022</strong> | RETAILERS FORUM MAGAZINE<br />

breaks occur. Most fax machines use special<br />

heat-sensitive “thermal” paper. These cost far<br />

less than plain-paper fax machines, although<br />

prices on the latter continue to fall. Plain-paper<br />

faxes deliver a higher-quality document, are<br />

easier to load, and work with regular paper. If<br />

you decide to go with a less expensive thermal<br />

fax model, make sure it has a built-in automatic<br />

paper cutter. Without it, you’ll spend a lot of aggravating<br />

time with scissors cutting up documents<br />

and orders.<br />

THE RETAIL COMPUTER<br />

Wouldn’t you instantly hire someone who<br />

could identify every customer by name, address,<br />

buying habits, and number of visits to<br />

the store; manage your inventory; handle all<br />

computer terminology that will help you<br />

through your search for the right system.<br />

A computer is hardware. The computer keyboard<br />

is what you type on; it’s laid out like a<br />

typewriter. A mouse is a pointing<br />

<br />

device that allows you to manipulate<br />

the cursor indicates on the<br />

screen where you are in the document<br />

you’re working on.<br />

The program, or application, is software. If you<br />

think of the hardware as a record player, the<br />

software is the record. But software does much<br />

more. It allows the computer to perform specific<br />

tasks the software is written to accomplish.<br />

Word-processing software transforms the computer<br />

into an electronic typewriter and more.<br />

A spreadsheet program offers the software<br />

equivalent of a financial spreadsheet, with report,<br />

graphics, and interpretive functions built<br />

in. A database is a file of information, called<br />

data, that can be organized by category or an<br />

attribute.<br />

Software is sold on computer media: either a<br />

floppy disk or CD-ROM. Floppy disks are a<br />

form of magnetic media, while a CD-ROM,<br />

which holds hundreds of times more information,<br />

is a laser-based technology. Software sold<br />

on disk may also be loaded and stored on the<br />

computer’s hard drive, a large-capacity disk.<br />

Hard drives may be internal – built into the machine<br />

– or external – connected by cable to one<br />

of the computer ports. The storage capacity of<br />

a hard drive is measured in megabytes or gigabytes.<br />

For simplicity’s sake, think of one<br />

forumworkshop<br />

FORUM WORKSHOP<br />

megabyte as equal to the amount of information<br />

stored on one floppy disk.<br />

<br />

1,000 megabytes equal one gigabyte.<br />

A port is where you connect other devices to<br />

the computer, by plugging their cables into the<br />

port. These devices are called peripherals, of<br />

which printers are the most commonly used.<br />

Several types of printers can be connected to<br />

the computer. A dot matrix printer is a low-cost<br />

unit that produces serviceable quality text for<br />

most purposes. A Laser printer produces much<br />

higher-quality images. Laser output represents<br />

today’s business standard for official correspondence.<br />

Another peripheral, the modem,<br />

enables the computer to communicate with another<br />

computer over telephone lines. Taken together,<br />

hardware, peripherals, and software<br />

comprise a computer system.<br />

The Computer Is A Tool For<br />

Information Management & More<br />

As a toll for information management, the computer<br />

frees the retailer from may of the lesser<br />

chores that go with being in charge. In the<br />

process it also delivers the power to accomplish<br />

things once considered too labor-intensive for<br />

the individual store owner to accomplish. Consider<br />

your need to know customers as an example.<br />

In the past, everything a store owner knew<br />

of customers, their likes and buying habits, was<br />

kept in that gray filing<br />

the right computer system,<br />

you become master<br />

at the science of knowing<br />

each shopper.<br />

You can use database software to create a detailed<br />

profile of every customer. The first time a<br />

shopper comes into the store, you or your clerk<br />

enters what you deem appropriate information<br />

into your database. For example: name, address,<br />

phone number, family members and<br />

ages, the purchase, and how that customer<br />

learned about the store. Next time the customer<br />

makes a purchase, you pull up that file onscreen<br />

and enter the new information. The<br />

process is the same for every customer in your<br />

store.<br />

You know how wide an area the store is serving,<br />

and, if needed, which day of the week, and<br />

the hour of the day, You’re selling the most<br />

products, by category. And that’s only how the<br />

system helps track customers.<br />

Software enables you to balance your books,<br />

track profits per department and item, and pay<br />

the bills without lifting a pen to your checkbook.<br />

You can use the system to set up your<br />

business plan and annual budget, project realistic<br />

goals based on past performance, and<br />

compare year-to-year sales growth by category<br />

or product. Then, with a laser printer and desktop<br />

publishing software, you<br />

can produce professionalquality<br />

➠<br />

The Computer Is A Tool For<br />

Inventory Management & More<br />

The system also brings features and functions<br />

that streamline inventory management. If,<br />

when you take delivery on a product, you assign<br />

it a code number, you can track its history<br />

from arrival to when it moves out the door. Use<br />

the system as your electronic cashier, and upto-the-minute<br />

information on every item in<br />

your inventory is there at your fingertips: your<br />

cost, selling price, an item description, supplier,<br />

number in stock, whatever you decide it will<br />

help to know. Connected with a bar code reader<br />

and software, the process is even simpler once<br />

the bar code label is affixed to the product.<br />

(Some of the more progressive suppliers will<br />

now handle this chore at their warehouse, before<br />

they ship the goods!) continued...<br />

FORUM WORKSHOP<br />

The customer selects the item, steps up to the<br />

counter. All your clerk does is pass the magic<br />

wand over the code. Even as the sales receipt is<br />

being printed, the system updates information<br />

on inventory levels and the day’s sales. The inventory<br />

management system can be set to alert<br />

you when stock is dangerously low, or point<br />

out a sudden surge in sales that means opportunity.<br />

Sound enticing? It should. Today, a computer<br />

system makes good retail sense.<br />

DETERMINING YOUR NEEDS<br />

Selecting the right system for your store demands<br />

time. It’s not a decision to rush. A computer<br />

system is a relatively expensive<br />

investment. If not carefully thought out, it can<br />

prove a frustrating waste of your limited resources.<br />

The search begins with an honest evaluation<br />

of your own computer skills, then your<br />

needs. If you’ve been working on a computer<br />

system for years, and are comfortable with the<br />

platform, you’re already ahead<br />

<br />

in the game. You don’t need any<br />

convincing on how a computer<br />

can help manage a business.<br />

Assuming you’re satisfied with the system you<br />

presently use, your search comes down to deciding<br />

which software best addresses your<br />

needs. You may even be proficient enough to<br />

modify some off-the-shelf database, accounting,<br />

or business management software to your<br />

particular needs. The practice is definitely not<br />

recommended for the novice computer user,<br />

however. There’s enough to learning your system<br />

without fiddling around with software.<br />

Novices should concentrate their search on<br />

software packages that specifically addresses<br />

retail management in your history and<br />

product category. More on that in a moment.<br />

WHAT IF YOU’RE NEW TO<br />

THE WORLD OF COMPUTERS?<br />

If you’re entirely new to computers, selecting<br />

the best system begins with the software. You<br />

may think of computers in terms of hardware,<br />

but the software is the key that unlocks all the<br />

power for you. The computer will only prove<br />

as useful a tool as the software allows. Many<br />

software programs are available in different<br />

versions for different operating platforms.<br />

Some are published only in versions for one<br />

type of machine. A few years from now, compatibility<br />

won’t be an issue. We’re not there yet,<br />

though. The software you decide best services<br />

your needs will dictate which hardware you<br />

buy. You can purchase an integrated package of<br />

software, hardware, and technical support<br />

from a single vendor, but it’s not always the<br />

most cost-effective way to go about it.<br />

More likely than not, there’s already<br />

a software program on<br />

the market for your particular<br />

needs, specific to your retail industry.<br />

Over the past decade<br />

many entrepreneurs made careers for themselves<br />

developing software programs for every<br />

conceivable application, including retail management.<br />

If you browse the smaller ads and<br />

classifieds in the back of the trade magazines,<br />

you’ll probably come up with the names of a<br />

few of these programs.<br />

Before You Buy, Make Sure To<br />

Speak With The Real Experts<br />

Before you contact any computer dealer or<br />

manufacturer, and your name gets in the hands<br />

of a salesperson, talk to other retailers in your<br />

business about what programs they use. Take<br />

notes on what they share about their experience<br />

with the software and how it helps manage<br />

stores. You'll find the satisfied ones pretty<br />

chatty. People take pride talking about how<br />

much they’ve been able to accomplish with<br />

their computers.<br />

➮❦<br />

You need to know the name of the program<br />

they use, how long they’ve had<br />

it, and what computer hardware they<br />

run on it. Get the names of the program(s)<br />

used for information and inventory<br />

management, and the name and number<br />

of the vendor and publisher. Ask all if<br />

they’re completely satisfied with what they use,<br />

and if they would recommend it. Always inquire<br />

about other programs used in the past. If<br />

they used any others, why did they switch?<br />

Some of those programs may still be on the<br />

market, and the retailers may provide you with<br />

good reasons to avoid them.<br />

Next, contact your industry trade group or the<br />

appropriate retail organizations. Inquire if<br />

they’ve tested any software, and is so, could<br />

they recommend any particular program. Some<br />

trade groups publish software guides, with reviews<br />

of what’s currently being sold. Request<br />

or purchase a copy. Your next best bet is to ask<br />

for the names of industry contacts well versed<br />

in the available software. continued...<br />

Another source for leads should be the trade<br />

magazines specific to your retail category. Contact<br />

the editors, ask if they’ve done any software<br />

reviews, and request copies. Again, ask<br />

for contacts who know the software.<br />

With all these calls, you’re looking for recommendations.<br />

If you keep hearing good things<br />

about the same program, it’s probably worth<br />

investigating first. Contact the publisher and<br />

ask for some information, including a demonstration<br />

disk if one is available. If you’ve<br />

searched this far and still come up empty, it<br />

may be that no one has written<br />

on general retail<br />

You Could Enlist A Hired Hand<br />

In Your Search For The Right System<br />

You can proceed along these lines, or turn for<br />

outside help at this point. If the idea of the<br />

search overwhelms you, avoid the process by<br />

soliciting the help of a computer systems consultant.<br />

They go by a variety of titles, including<br />

developers, systems integrators, business “automators,”<br />

and value-added resellers. What<br />

each will do is sit down and talk with you to<br />

determine your computer needs. The, based on<br />

that conference, they’ll recommend a “turnkey”<br />

system of hardware and software. It’s usually a<br />

system they’d like to sell you, by the way.<br />

That’s why, with computer consultants, as with<br />

insurance agents, your interests are best served<br />

by the individual who represents several comproducts.<br />

That way you’re more likely to end up<br />

with a recommendation that’s best for you,<br />

not the consultant.<br />

MAKE SURE TO BE SPECIFIC<br />

IN OUTLINING YOUR NEEDS<br />

Whether you hire a consultant or go it alone, be<br />

as specific as possible when determining your<br />

computer needs. That makes selection of a<br />

computer system another project for your now<br />

dogeared and tattered notebook. Think in<br />

terms of how you work now, and how you<br />

want the computer to help you work smarter.<br />

Start with information management. Write<br />

down every responsibility with which you<br />

think the computer will help you do a better<br />

job: accounting, bookkeeping, scheduling,<br />

record keeping, payroll<br />

<br />

taxes, billing, correspondence,<br />

mailing, etc.<br />

Then turn your attention to inventory.<br />

Would you like an electronic cash register that<br />

automatically adjusts inventory levels? What<br />

about tracking transactions from delivery to<br />

shipment, processing orders, and monitoring<br />

sales trends at the cash register?<br />

Finally, write down the things that will help<br />

you know and reach your market better: a<br />

breakdown of your customers by zip code, the<br />

ability to produce reports on buying trends and<br />

monthly activity, automated mailings, and the<br />

potential to produce all advertising materials<br />

in-house.<br />

Your list in hand, contact the consultant or<br />

begin calling on software publishers for information<br />

on their programs. Compare the features<br />

of the programs against your needs,<br />

narrowing down the selection to the closest<br />

match. Note the recommended hardware configuration,<br />

as it relates to upgrading your system<br />

or as a shopping guide. And ask for the<br />

price of each program and what it includes.<br />

A PROGRAM CAN SEEM DECEPTIVELY IN-<br />

EXPENSIVE IF YOU MUST PAY FOR TRAIN-<br />

ING AND TECHNICAL<br />

SUPPORT. These services<br />

can prove as important as<br />

the software itself. During<br />

your learning curve you can<br />

spend a lot of time on the<br />

phone with tech support.<br />

☎— Wholesale —<br />

Never buy a specialty software application<br />

without seeing it in operation and talking to<br />

present users. If a particular program seems to<br />

meet your needs, ask for a demonstration by a<br />

company representative, and get the names of<br />

retailers using that program. Call for their critiques,<br />

and if possible, drop by and see the system<br />

in operation.<br />

Only when you’ve settled on the software<br />

should you begin considering your hardware<br />

purchase. That’s an easy process when there’s<br />

already a machine on your desk or if you’ve<br />

hired the computer consultant for a turnkey<br />

system. If not, and your software of choice is<br />

available in more than one format, ask the publisher<br />

which computer platform is recommended.<br />

If they make no recommendations,<br />

you’re on your way.<br />

FORUM WORKSHOP<br />

SELECTING THE HARDWARE<br />

As it’s sold, a computer hardware system actually<br />

consists of several basic components and,<br />

depending on need, several more peripherals.<br />

The basics include the central processing unit<br />

(CPU), which is the brain of the machine; the<br />

monitor or screen; the hard drive; and the keyboard.<br />

Attached to that CPU may be a mouse<br />

for manipulating the cursor around the screen,<br />

a modem for communicating with another<br />

computer, a printer, and supplementary disk or<br />

CD-ROM drives. The basic recommended<br />

hardware configuration for managing<br />

a business by computer<br />

today includes a CPU, monitor,<br />

hard drive, CD-ROM drive, keyboard,<br />

mouse, and laser printer.<br />

If you aren’t directed to a particular hardware<br />

platform, you’ve a couple of choices to consider.<br />

Most small store owners will find their<br />

needs adequately served by either of the two<br />

personal computer formats available in the<br />

marketplace: the Macintosh equipment currently<br />

made and manufactured by Apple Computer,<br />

and the much broader selection of IBM<br />

PCs and compatible machines from many other<br />

computer makers.<br />

The success of the Macintosh owes much to<br />

the ease of use of its operating system. Users<br />

of the Macintosh owes much to the ease of use<br />

of its operating system. Users of the Macintosh<br />

have no need to learn any codes or letter commands<br />

in order to run the system. They direct<br />

its activities by clicking on icons – graphic elec-<br />

tronic buttons on the screen.<br />

This advantage has been countered in the PC<br />

world with an operating system called Windows<br />

from Microsoft, which facilitates the ease<br />

of operation in a comparable way. Whatever<br />

the hardware format, any new user can expect<br />

to master the basics of operation in a very short<br />

amount of time.<br />

MAKE SURE TO SHOP AROUND<br />

BEFORE BUYING<br />

If there’s no computer consultant on contract,<br />

it’s worth your while to spend time shopping<br />

around for the hardware. Computer hardware<br />

is a hotly contested market, prone to fierce price<br />

competition. Typically the computer is sold as<br />

a package of the basic system configuration described<br />

above. Most ads will mention the size<br />

of the monitor; a name or number identifying<br />

the microprocessor that drives the computer;<br />

the amount of RAM (internal memory) standard<br />

with the machine, measured in<br />

megabytes; the size of the hard drive, again<br />

measured in megabytes; any expansion boards<br />

included with the system; and its overall expansion<br />

capabilities. All of this is important,<br />

and as a general rule, the higher the numbers,<br />

the better your buy.<br />

<br />

✔ Amount of RAM<br />

✔ Processor<br />

✔ Storage Space<br />

✔ Display Size<br />

✔ Video Support<br />

✔ Audio Support<br />

BUT TAKE NOTE: One of the<br />

most frustrating things about<br />

the computer market is the<br />

pace at which new innovations<br />

appears. Microprocessors continue<br />

to get more powerful,<br />

driving new capabilities that require more<br />

RAM and greater storage capability if they’re<br />

to be utilized.<br />

Computers evolve so fast that any machine you<br />

buy today will seem obsolete when compared<br />

with the capabilities of machines offered at the<br />

same price point 2 years from now.<br />

It May Make More Sense To Lease<br />

Rather Than Buy Hardware<br />

making an investment. There are companies<br />

that specialize in leasing hardware. Some companies<br />

that market software also lease hardware<br />

as part of the software sale. If you’re<br />

looking for the best in a computer system, both<br />

today and tomorrow, leasing is an option that<br />

warrants your close consideration.<br />

That’s one reason why leasing equipment may<br />

make more sense for the start-up retailer than<br />

outright purchase of the hardware. Leasing offers<br />

advantages, especially if you planned on<br />

financing your system anyway. A lease<br />

arrangement allows you to trade up to a better<br />

system when you decide you need it. Most<br />

leases include service contracts as well, so you<br />

never need worry about doing without your<br />

computer if repairs are necessary. Leasing is<br />

also a good way to sample the system before<br />

GET THE BEST SYSTEM<br />

YOU CAN AFFORD<br />

Whichever way you go, get the<br />

best system your budget allows.<br />

Computer technology moves so<br />

rapidly, you’ll extend the useable<br />

life of the hardware by<br />

buying the most powerful com-<br />

➧puter you can presently afford.<br />

Even if you can’t conceive of filling a 200-<br />

megabyte hard drive, you will, and then you’ll<br />

want even more space. Look for the system that<br />

offers the most expansion options in terms of<br />

RAM upgrades, expansion slots, and ports for<br />

connection with other devices.<br />

LOOK AT THE SUPPORT<br />

AFTER THE SALE<br />

A one-year warranty with a toll-free number to<br />

reach the publisher should be regarded as a<br />

basic right by anyone purchasing hardware.<br />

With software, you need to investigate technical<br />

support and the company’s policy on upgrades.<br />

Software publishers continually<br />

improve their programs, and remove bugs, as a<br />

response to what they hear from customers. Before<br />

buying, ask how far the publisher is from<br />

Build Your Own<br />

the next version of the program,<br />

and what it will cost for<br />

the upgrade. It should be free<br />

or offered to the new buyer at<br />

a substantial discount.<br />

✔<br />

The new buyer should also be entitled to a period<br />

of free technical support. It Takes time to<br />

master a program – manuals are not always as<br />

informative as they should be – and you’ll have<br />

questions about running the software. As a registered<br />

user who spent hundreds or thousands<br />

of dollars for a software solution, you shouldn’t<br />

need to run up your phone bill to figure out<br />

how to get the program to print your reports.<br />

Your store is a highly specialized business, and<br />

the software that will allow you to run it more<br />

effectively should be just as sophisticated. Time<br />

spent sitting down with an instructor is time<br />

well spent. It’s much easier to learn how to navigate<br />

through an application, and get it to do<br />

what you want, once you’ve watched someone<br />

else run the program. Depending on the publisher,<br />

you may or may not pay extra for the<br />

training. Even if you must, it will prove money<br />

well spent. It’s much easier to learn how to navigate<br />

ALLOW YOURSELF THE TIME<br />

NEEDED TO MASTER THE SYSTEM<br />

Even with training, there’s a definite learning<br />

curve for hardware and software. It will take<br />

time to set up the system that serves all your<br />

needs, even as a start-up operation. Trying to<br />

rush the process will only breed frustration.<br />

That frustration could prevent you from gaining<br />

all you can from the system.<br />

The time required to learn and master your<br />

computer system depends on what level of<br />

computer skills you bring to the project. If<br />

you’ve been working on a computer for years,<br />

you’ll have the system running as soon as you<br />

learn the nuances of the software. A computer<br />

novice will need to allow extra time, weeks at<br />

least, in order to get comfortable<br />

with the operation of hardware<br />

and software. All users will only<br />

begin to discover the full power of<br />

the system after using it to manage<br />

the business a few months.<br />

⧖<br />

DON’T BE AFRAID TO EXPERIMENT<br />

Once you’ve mastered the basics of running<br />

the software, try to devise new ways of using<br />

it to gain added insight into the business. Try<br />

all kinds of reports, from day-to-day sales performance<br />

to seasonal trends by category. Your<br />

computer hardware has many more capabilities<br />

than the software that runs your business<br />

allows. Sample your options. You could invest<br />

in a desktop publishing program and try your<br />

hand at designing ads.<br />

You could even use presentation software<br />

to dazzle the banker when you<br />

go in with your loan request.<br />

Speak With Other Computer Users<br />

☞When you make your purchase,<br />

ask the seller or publisher<br />

for the names of<br />

other users of the system.<br />

Talk with them about what<br />

they’ve learned about the<br />

hardware and software.<br />

Some suppliers promote<br />

users’ groups for the interchange of ideas.<br />

There should be such a group in your area. It<br />

could prove a good resource when it comes to<br />

troubleshooting or exploring the capabilities of<br />

your machine.<br />

Take The Long View On Technology<br />

Start thinking of your computer system as an<br />

electronic assistant manager, and you’ll get the<br />

most from it in the years ahead. Your system,<br />

and its contributions, can grow with your retail<br />

business. The system can teach you about your<br />

business and guide you to the right decisions.<br />

Consider the computer as something at the core<br />

of your long-term strategy for expanding your<br />

market.<br />

You may, for example, eventually decide to distribute<br />

a store catalog on CD-ROM, complete<br />

with color photos, video, and descriptions of<br />

the selection available in your store. If your customers<br />

are scattered over a wide area, and sophisticated<br />

enough, on-line sales & service may<br />

eventually figure in your plans.<br />

Already some telecommunications networks<br />

carry advertising and conduct sales for<br />

specialty retailers in select categories.<br />

These networks represent an entirely<br />

new sales outlet for the spe-<br />

✆<br />

cialty retailer. The promised<br />

“information superhighway” will<br />

be as pervasive as today’s telephone network.<br />

On-line services will enable specialty retailers<br />

to serve the electronic neighborhood mentioned<br />

earlier. Consumers will have electronic<br />

access to stores in another city or another state.<br />

This is already happening through Prodigy,<br />

CompuServe, and America Online. A few specialty<br />

retailers already use these services to sell<br />

to customers and make the computer connection,<br />

people will become increasingly reliant on<br />

shopping by modem, checking the on-line service<br />

for listings of the latest sales, & browsing the<br />

catalogs of retailers connected to the service.<br />

The computer can provide you with yet another<br />

chance to differentiate your store from<br />

its competitors. Many retail specialists now<br />

employ field sales forces, calling on customer<br />

accounts where they live or work. Equip them<br />

with laptop computers and they can work as<br />

effectively as if they were in the showroom.<br />

Your representative can make a presentation at<br />

the client’s site, and connect to the office to<br />

place the order. Or he can check on the account’s<br />

payment history and the status of the<br />

last order. Large businesses already employ<br />

computers in this way; in tomorrow’s competitive<br />

retail market, the winners will be those<br />

who also tap the full potential of mobile computing.<br />

Computers and related information technologies<br />

are now fixtures of the commercial landscape.<br />

Together, they’ll fuel an evolution that<br />

promises to change retailing as well as all other<br />

aspects of our lives. The store you start today<br />

and the retail business you operate tomorrow<br />

may sell the same products but differ tremendously<br />

in structure: how you sell and distribute<br />

products, and how the customers access you.<br />

Consider the promise of the computer technology<br />

already seen in point-of-purchase technology.<br />

Touch screens and interactive video can<br />

already guide a shopper through an electronic<br />

version of the store, right to the Peg-Board with<br />

the selected item. A digital mirror allows<br />

women to try out different hairstyles or mascara,<br />

even eye color, before deciding what to<br />

buy. Tomorrow’s customer may be able to try<br />

An easy and convenient way for consumers to be connected with<br />

a personal loan through our network of lenders and the other<br />

third-party lender networks we use.<br />

Our online service can help you to get a loan of between<br />

$1,000 and $35,000.<br />

on a jacket that doesn’t exist,, in a choice of colors,<br />

or road test a car and the smoothness of the<br />

ride from an electronic simulator in his own living<br />

room.<br />

⌫<br />

The full power of technology belongs<br />

to those who understand it.<br />

Understanding follows familiarity.<br />

You simply cannot afford to be without a computer.<br />

It’s the tool of the present with the most<br />

to contribute to building your store’s future.<br />

WORKING RELATIONSHIPS<br />

& RESPONSIBILITIES<br />

Every store depends on the owner’s ability to<br />

establish solid working relationships with<br />

everyone the business depends on: suppliers<br />

of products & services, staff, & shoppers.<br />

As we move into the 21st Century, these relationships<br />

will take on more of an aura of multiple<br />

partnerships, cooperative ventures that<br />

function to the best interests of all involved.<br />

You’ll be your customer’s partner in that you’ll<br />

accept it as your responsibility to make sure she<br />

gets exactly what’s right for her. As a partner to<br />

your supplier, you’ll do all you can to get its<br />

products into the hands of consumers. In return<br />

for your effort, you’ll expect the loyalty and<br />

support basic to any partnership.<br />

You are your business. Certainly the team that<br />

surrounds you, inside and outside the store,<br />

contributes to your success. Were it not for your<br />

own dreams and aspirations,<br />

<br />

though, there would be no store,<br />

no team, and no retail career for<br />

grasp<br />

you and those you employ.<br />

IT’S NOT ENOUGH TO BUILD YOUR<br />

TEAM, YOU MUST GET ALONG WITH<br />

THEM AND INSPIRE THEM AS WELL.<br />

BE PREPARED TO LEAD AND, WHEN<br />

IT’S BENEFICIAL, TO FOLLOW.<br />

Obviously you already crave the responsibility<br />

of entrepreneurship, in all its forms. Retailing<br />

stands as one of the more competitive industries<br />

in this or any era. You’ve charged yourself<br />

with beating the odds, with making your ideas<br />

work in a business arena that historically witnesses<br />

more defeats than victories. As long as<br />

you wield your responsibilities in ways that<br />

will allow you to make the most of each working<br />

relationship, success will prove easier to<br />

and hold.<br />

FRONT MAN ON THE FRONT LINE<br />

Your biggest responsibility is to make sure<br />

what the public sees in you is likable. All<br />

types of relationships and perceptions rest on<br />

that foundation. Recall the neighborhood stores<br />

of your youth. What do you remember most<br />

about those places? More likely than not, when<br />

you think of the store, the owner comes to<br />

mind: his personality, accent, laughter, or<br />

frown. The successful store owner is virtually<br />

inseparable from the store. The<br />

<br />

two create an identity, a unified<br />

whole. A store may change<br />

hands and be regarded as the<br />

same store. But with each new<br />

owner, the business assumes a<br />

new identity, a reflection of the<br />

owner’s personality.<br />

That’s something lost to the larger stores, the<br />

impersonal places that seem to dominate so<br />

much of modern retailing. Some retail chains<br />

try to reclaim this identity through advertising,<br />

using the company founder as a spokesperson<br />

espousing the store philosophy. Noble as the attempt<br />

may be, it’s just not the same as walking<br />

in and seeing that person stacking shelves or<br />

standing behind the register. That’s the kind of<br />

personal connection, the sense of one-on-one<br />

contact, that makes shopping the small store so<br />

special. People want to see and hear from the<br />

expert, the front man or woman who is the<br />

store.<br />

Personality is part of the appeal of the<br />

specialty store in today’s market. Every successful<br />

store provides an experience for the<br />

shopper, separate from the buying process.<br />

FORUM WORKSHOP<br />

forumworkshop<br />

If the store owner is obsessed with 1960s memorabilia,<br />

his shop called My Back Pages could<br />

be an emporium for all that defines a shared experience<br />

to a select age group: the records,<br />

posters, clothing, colors, and paraphernalia<br />

evoking that time. The people who visit the<br />

store expect the owner to know and be eager to<br />

share everything they’d want to know abut<br />

every item in the store. It’s your enthusiasm for<br />

what you sell, and your caring manner, that<br />

wins shoppers over so they want to return. You,<br />

the store owner, become the symbol, the frontman,<br />

for the store and all it sells.<br />

To a certain degree, that identity lends itself to<br />

nonstore selling as well. What matters most<br />

there is creating an aura around yourself as the<br />

expert. Don’t provide mail-order customers<br />

with a catalog that simply lists products and<br />

prices; tell the story<br />

behind the merchandise.<br />

How did you<br />

find those one-of-akind<br />

items you’re<br />

promoting? Why did<br />

you select these particular<br />

flowers for<br />

the Happy Birthday<br />

arrangement shoppers can send anywhere? In<br />

the store, the retailer’s identity is built through<br />

interaction with customers. In catalogs or promotional<br />

material, it’s the words and pictures<br />

used, and stories you tell, that create an identity<br />

for the store. Your enthusiasm for what you<br />

sell – be it about great prices or great features<br />

– and your eagerness to share it motivate the<br />

shopper to place an order.<br />
