•Would you like some ideas for quick, easy, workshops?
We have lots of them and are willing to share. It may be hard to believe, but we are retailers helping other retailers.
•Do your customers come into your store carrying mail order catalogs?
We've all been there. Keep on smiling and give them a good reason to come back to your store.
•Does it seem like you're the last to know about a new product?
We have access to the latest news and information about products. Your customers will appreciate it.
•Have you run out of new ideas for getting people into your store?
Our members generously share their ideas to motivate you and your customers.
•Do customers tell you that they can get it cheaper on the Internet?
OUCH! We know what that feels like. Explain why it ain't necessarily so.
•Do you sometimes need some help finding an out-of-print book, and obsolete tool, an odd piece of glass for a repair or a customer?
RAGS Members help each other - every day, all the time.
