Don’t set yourself up for failure!
In This Episode:
“Baby steps!” It’s what everyone tells us when we are
trying to achieve a big goal. Maybe aren’t getting there as fast as
we’d like, or maybe when we are trying to make progress more
quickly than is realistic.
Episode 191 of the Creative Shop Talk Podcast is about
just that: growing and managing our retail businesses through small
(baby) steps. I’m here to remind you that 180 degree changes
don’t happen overnight.
“Success is the product of daily habits – not
once-in-a-lifetime transformations.” -James Clear, Author of Atomic
Habits
What’s one small habit or step you can change or take
right now to start making progress in your business?

About your host, Wendy Batten
In case we haven’t met yet, I’m Wendy, a small
business coach and founder of the
Retailer’s Inner Circle, where I help other independent shop
owners learn how to gain the right business skillsets to see more
profits, paychecks, and joy as they navigate running their retail
business.
Through online classes, business coaching programs,
speaking, and a top-ranked podcast,
I’ve helped hundreds of retailers around the globe reclaim their
dream and see the success they want from their beautiful shops. My
signature private coaching community, The
Retailer’s Inner Circle, has helped retailers around the world
build their retail business skill sets and confidence.
I am proud to have been featured in several major
publications, including my own business column in What Women Create
magazine. I have been
privileged to be a guest on top-ranked podcasts
and sought-after as a guest speaker and teacher for several brands,
associations, and communities that are passionate about the success
of independent retailers.
When I’m not coaching, you will find me either DIYing
and renovating my very imperfect old crooked cottage by the sea in
the UNESCO World Heritage town of Lunenburg, NS, or blogging about
our travel and RVing adventures and the weird fun things we get up
to in our coastal village. I’d love to invite you to check out one
of my free resources for real retailers at https://wendybatten.com/free-resources/
