Success Stories

We love nurturing success for our clients. We can do the same for you!

"As a seasoned retailer specializing in apparel, jewelry, and home décor, we were on the brink of permanent closure due to COVID-19. Having been in business for over 30 years, with 17 of those in our current location, the sudden store closure left us facing mounting bills and the threat of bankruptcy. Running Great Stores provided invaluable support during this critical time, offering swift guidance that allowed us to reinvent our business model. Despite our physical doors being shut and without a website, we successfully sold through 80% of our spring inventory, introduced new product offerings, and expanded our reach to new customers. Through strategic use of social media, we saw a 140% increase in engagement, which enabled us to bring three team members back from furlough. Now, four years later, our store continues to thrive, with a growing customer base and consistent year-over-year revenue increases. Without Running Great Stores, we wouldn’t be in business today."

As a direct-to-consumer brand, we faced significant challenges in expanding into brick-and-mortar retail, especially without the internal expertise to navigate the process. The pandemic had closed many malls, and our expansion plans were on hold. That’s when we turned to Running Great Stores. They helped us build the entire infrastructure for our retail operations, which included developing a comprehensive location-opening handbook and a detailed retail playbook for store operations. Thanks to their support, we went from four pop-up locations to 58 stores nationwide. Their focus on standardizing processes, streamlining procedures, and enhancing customer engagement provided the solid foundation we needed for success. Rachel worked closely with our brand, immersing herself in every detail to ensure a seamless integration of our retail channel. Without their guidance, our expansion wouldn’t have been possible.
