The 2025 Wrap Up!

This final episode of the year is a chance to stop, take a breath and look at what actually shaped 2025 for independent retailers and service providers. I’m sharing the patterns I saw across client work, audits and conversations—what worked, what held businesses back and the areas that consistently created momentum.We walk through the lessons worth carrying into 2026, the customer experience advantages independents must hold onto, and a real-life online shopping experience that reminded me exactly why human-led retail still wins. I’m also talking about the shift I saw this year in retailers finally allowing themselves support, and why that mindset is going to matter even more next year.To wrap up, I outline the priorities that will set you up well for January and February, so you can walk into 2026 clearer and more focused.Instagram: @theretailmarketersWebsite: theretailmarketers.comYouTube Channel: youtube.com/@theretailmarketers
