In this episode of the Thoughtful Entrepreneur, your host Josh Elledge speaks to the Founder & Principal of JHL Solutions, Juli Lassow.
As a retail consultant, Julie shares her wealth of expertise on how retailers can provide their customers with high-quality products that exceed their expectations. She emphasizes establishing strong partnerships with suppliers to achieve this goal.
Building solid partnerships starts with understanding customers' preferences and expectations. By doing so, retailers can identify products that will sell well and ensure their suppliers can meet the demand.
Regularly sharing updates and feedback with suppliers ensures that both parties are on the same page and can address any issues quickly. Retailers should also focus on creating a welcoming and enjoyable shopping environment by paying attention to small details in-store.
To achieve the best results, retailers can seek the help of an independent negotiator to evaluate their interests and position objectively. This can lead to more impactful results and ensure both parties feel satisfied with the final agreement.
With a positive and collaborative approach, retailers can establish strong partnerships with their suppliers, resulting in high-quality products that meet and exceed customer expectations.
