FTR 066: Carm Capriotto – Struggling Shops and The Rule of Holes

Key Talking Points:

  • Where are the struggling shops? They are hidden. They don’t want to be discovered. But you know who they are. Just look at their shop you can tell. Knock on their door. Or better yet, if you are struggling, ASK, yes ASK. You will easily find help.
  • YES, it is highly personal to admit you need help, but it can be cathartic and the best first step you can make. 
  • I saw first hand at ASTE this weekend people that put their hands up and said ‘Im’ Struggling and I need Help’ It was an awesome sight. I met a few and they are making the first steps to recovering their business.

  • PRIDE prevents asking for help. But we know that and you need to accept your circumstance and ASK
