OVERVIEW
Retail Entrepreneurship Development Program – REDP is a program of the Retail Academy designed for individuals who are considering starting and running their own retail businesses and individuals who are already running a retail business but are not really achieving the goals they set out to achieve and desire a turnaround. Non-retail SMEs will also benefit from the program.
Your dream of starting a retail business is set to become a reality. It may take a lot of initial work as you start your own business, but with the right foundation, planning, and support systems, success can be achieved! – Joseph Ebata
This program will answers such questions as: What can I profitably sell? How do I raise capital? How many staff do I need and how do I get them? How can I serve the different types of customers? How can I ever compete with already established retailers? How do I set my prices? What are the possible problems that I may encounter and how can I overcome them? Where will I source my products? Where will I source equipment and which equipment are the best for my type of retail business? Should I sell online?
It will also provide answers to business challenges such as I don’t know what is happening to my business. I am just pumping in money and there is no commensurate result. My sales staff are just stealing my goods and I am thinking of closing it down. What can I do? What must I do?
Whether you are thinking of starting a business or seeking a turnaround, REDP is the perfect program for you. It will provide you with the “how to” of starting and managing a retail business and/or achieving that turnaround you so much desire. REDP will give you a strong foundation for developing the requisite knowledge, skills, and attitude for starting and running a successful retail business.
Attending the REDP of the Retail Academy, therefore, is an investment in your future. Our mission is to provide you with the highest quality of education, the best preparation for your retail entrepreneurship success, and the greatest opportunity for an exciting, fulfilling, and rewarding retailing life.
REDP is a Certified Program.
