When asked what indie retailers need to do differently in 2018, Dave says:
“Stop waiting for something to bring shoppers back to your store and start innovating. Taking advantage of the creativity and entrepreneurial roots that prompted an independent retailer to launch their business has once again become a necessity. I believe there are three ways to discover breakthrough innovation:
1) Invent something entirely new;
2) Adapt something from another business; or
3) Partner with a complementary service or product to meet an unmet customer need.”
