NARTS Director and Immediate Past President, Bonnie Kallenberg, is offering a power-packed package of mentoring in Atlanta, Georgia OR in your own store, if you prefer. Bonnie owns Finder Keepers, Inc. which is now four stores strong—plus a processing center—with one store dedicated to home furnishings and décor, a menswear location, a designer boutique, and the main store which sells ladies' and plus-sizes.
unning shoes on and the coffee brewing and you will be ready for Neil Abramson, NARTS President, of ECI Stores—along with his "pink calculator"—to spend the day consulting with you in your store helping you focus on your operation and on all the numbers. Everything in your store converts back to numbers... knowing those numbers (number of items processed, average $ item, cost per item, payroll, rent, lights, etc). Knowing and understanding these numbers will allow you to make slight edge changes and supercharge your business.
She’s the energetic, enthusiastic marketing mogul who packs the room at her NARTS workshops and now you can have her all to yourself for an entire day of marketing!
