Retail Solmate


One popular idea you often entertain as your business grows is about getting into retail.  While starting out creating inventory can be an overwhelming task from the initial investment to picking the right products to fit your practice it all boils down to trying what works and what does not work for your clientele and quite frankly there is no way of telling.  You can score big with things like  candles or essential oils or not.  In the end, if you take some of your profits and reinvest it  into  products you are always taking a risk that may or may not pay off.

One company we wanted to feature is Solmate Socks all their products are knit form pre-consumer, recycled cotton yarn.  They collect remnants from t-shirt factories that would normally go into a landlfill, grind them down and re-spin them into their own yarns.  How cool is that for a talking point with your clients about zero waste.  Textiles take up nearly 8 percent of our country's landfills so you can rest assure by partnering with a company like Solmate you can make a little money and do your part in reducing waste.




 

Back to normal, are we really?

If you are in the personal services business and miraculously managed to stay open after Covid, you may find yourself back to business as us...
