October Half Term here in Scotland is over and out.

Gone in a flash.

How do you all juggle the store, family life and everything in between? We get on with it don’t we?

Do you have your village of support nearby?

Tonight’s meeting let’s check in and openly talk about how we balance life at your Safe Space meeting. 7pm Monday 20th

Tonight’s Safe Space meeting is at 7pm for Retailers to join and speak safely about their week.

Reach out if you are unsure if it’s for you or unsure of the format.

We go over rules at the beginning of each meeting and everyone has space to speak. If you don’t feel ready to speak; a lot of people find it cathartic to just listen and sharing can come later.

Drop in tonight or any Monday at 7pm

Take care of yourselves 💛

RATE•MY•PLATE

Not literally but let’s look at what we have on our plate.

We have:

⭕️ Really long hours:- we service the public 16-24 hours a day. Our business never sleeps. Do we?

⭕️ Staffing issues:- no matter how wonderful our team is we often experience staff absence, holiday cover and the unexpected.

⭕️ Increasing costs:- We face the cost of living the same as a consumer and often weigh up absorbing some of the cost to keep footfall and custom coming.

⭕️Tax:- the never spoken about subject. We face it at every angle

⭕️Family:- whether it’s balancing our intertwined home life or navigating family working together in business

⭕️Competition:- we are constantly styling new competition. Battle of who is the strongest

⭕️ Our own selves:- we really do put ourselves last. It’s not being heroic or selfless but the sheer extent of sometimes not alway business feeling like survival.

Tonight we will be discussing exactly what’s on our plates. How we manage or maybe how we aren’t just now. Both are fine. Let’s normalise talking it out.

7pm tonight. Retailers only

Tonight at 7pm let’s catch up and see how you are all doing.

Kids are all firmly back to school in all of the UK.

Weather has been up down and all over the place. Challenges continue with Shoplifting abuse and forever proposed changes in legislation.

What has been grinding your goat? Let’s lay it all out on the table. There’s more of us going through the same thing than we think.

Now more than ever it has been highlighted to one of the founders the importance of talking and support.

Whilst we ARE retailers, we have families and the balance between it all and managing the business which has to keep going and our life is challenging.

Join us tonight at 7pm to hear how YOU are getting on
