Local retailers looking to sharpen their skills and strengthen their business are being encouraged to take advantage of a free hands-on workshop later this month as part of the Lithgow Emerging Economy Plan (LEEP) Speaker Series.
Taking place on Tuesday, 28 July, the Retail Masterclass with Marguerite Bell has been designed specifically for local retailers and shopfront businesses, offering practical strategies that can be implemented immediately.
Rather than focusing on theory, the masterclass will explore what really works on the shop floor, giving business owners and retail staff the opportunity to learn from an experienced industry professional who understands the challenges facing bricks-and-mortar businesses in today’s changing retail landscape.
Whether you’re an established retailer looking to increase sales, improve customer experience or refresh your approach, or you’re new to business and keen to build confidence, the session promises valuable insights that can make a real difference.
Adding even more value, a limited number of participating retail businesses will also have the opportunity to access a free one-on-one consultation with Marguerite Bell following the workshop. These personalised sessions will allow businesses to receive tailored advice specific to their store, operations and goals.
The workshop forms part of the ongoing LEEP Speaker Series, which aims to support economic growth across the Lithgow region by providing local businesses with access to high-quality professional development opportunities at no cost.
With retail continuing to evolve as customer expectations change and competition increases, workshops like these provide an excellent opportunity for businesses to stay ahead of the curve while connecting with other local operators facing similar opportunities and challenges.
Places are expected to be in demand, particularly given the complimentary one-on-one consultations available to a limited number of attendees.
Businesses interested in taking part can register and find out more by visiting the LEEP events page or scanning the QR code on the promotional material. Early registration is recommended to avoid missing out.
