RETAILER'S ROADMAP

$19 USD

Launching a brick-and-mortar business is an exciting yet demanding journey. The thrill of transforming an idea into a physical space where customers engage with your products or services is unmatched. However, success isn’t guaranteed—many businesses struggle without a strong foundation. According to the Small Business Administration, nearly one-third of new businesses fail within two years, and more than half don’t survive beyond five. While these statistics may seem daunting, the right preparation and expert guidance can significantly improve your chances of success.

That’s where the Retailer’s Roadmap comes in. Subject matter expert Robert Caruso provides a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to successfully launch a brick-and-mortar business. Through his Project Launch Methodology—a simple yet effective 7-step process—he guides you from concept to grand opening.

Whether you’re planning a restaurant, bakery, café, or retail store, this book serves as a comprehensive guide. You’ll discover how to identify the ideal location, negotiate lease terms, and navigate the buildout process with confidence.

Drawing from over two decades of experience developing millions of square feet of retail space, Caruso shares proven strategies once available only to franchisees paying hefty fees and royalties. Now, these tools are accessible to entrepreneurs at any stage.

Whether you’re a first-time business owner or a seasoned entrepreneur, Retailer’s Roadmap equips you with the knowledge, strategies, and resources to launch your retail business efficiently—helping you save time and money while minimizing risk.
