outfit (both classes are necessary) Each class is $60.
The
Jacket
Get an overview of what it is to own a boutique and wear the
jacket of owning a store. Learn unique ways to find out if you
are ready for this lifestyle event you are creating. Begin the
step by step approach you need to get a store open and stay
in business for years to come.
The
Dress Underneath
Learn the nitty-gritty in the numbers and terminologies that
will become your new language for starting and running a business.
Things like open to buy, cost of goods sold, turn over and variable
expenses will change your life. Feel good knowing your facts
and figures are ready to wear when you open the doors to your
public, in your new dress.
