Our Mothers' Day outpost was 40% better than last year while shop sales had about 10% improvement.
Overall cards sales increased 22% over the 2 weeks period while gifts improved by 25% while customers number was up 8%.
We've grown our newsagency business by over 40% over the last 5 years (during one of the biggest retail slumps in ages). We've achieved this by diversifying, moving out of low margin lines and improving overall margins. Focus on being a retailer, not an agent. Don't rely on others to make your decisions. Try new things, get rid of what doesn't work and try again.
