1: Useful reference
The book is a well laid out reference for anyone wishing to get into the retail clothing business. As a budding fashion designer looking to create her own outlet shop to sell my line of clothing this book was helpful for getting a start. I would recommend the book to anyone looking to get into retail!

2: Helpful
I thought that this book was realistic, rather than discouraging. Unlike some other books about retail startup, it assumed some previous reatil knowledge on the part of the reader (which makes sense... you probably shouldn't think of opening a store if you have no retail experience at all!) Cost startup worksheets were particularly helpful.

3: This is a good book
I really liked this book.
It was very Descriptive & resourceful.
It taught me everything i needed to learn about the clothing retail business.
If your interested in opening your own clothing business this is the book for you!

4: Good summery. nothing more
Its a good summery of what the typcial clothing shop is like and gives a lot of general information but doesn't explain how to do those things. Example, the books says a computer system can help me track inventory but doesn't tell me how, what i need, where can i find such a system or what are some good software to do that
|
5: Good starting point
I have to disagree with the previous poster. The book doesn't try to discourage the reader from getting into the retail business, it just points out that the retail business is a risky one that may not turn a profit for years. This book gives some helpful advice for would-be retailers as well as established ones, and also points you in the direction of some associations that can help (i.e., S.C.O.R.E. ). I definately reccomend it.
