Each month, members take part in a live, facilitated clinic conversation focused on real challenges from real retail businesses.
You can bring your own questions for discussion or listen as other business owners work through theirs. These conversations often surface wider commercial, leadership, and positioning issues that many owners are facing - not just the person asking the question.
The value comes as much from hearing how others think and decide as it does from direct input. It’s a practical way to step back from the day-to-day and sharpen your judgement as a business owner.


Each month, members receive a focused retail insight session built around a single commercial theme.
These sessions are designed to raise your level of understanding, not overwhelm you with tactics. They explore what’s really driving performance in independent retail businesses and help you think more clearly about how to apply those ideas in your own context.
The aim isn’t to turn you into a “retail pro”, but to help you develop stronger judgement, better priorities, and more confidence in the decisions you make as a business owner.
Members have access to regular conversations and interviews with experienced retail operators and industry figures, alongside real-world success stories from within the Club.
These aren’t promotional interviews or highlight reels. They’re practical discussions about what’s working, what’s changed, and how experienced retailers think about their businesses.
Hearing how others approach similar challenges provides perspective, reassurance, and ideas you can adapt - without feeling the need to copy or chase every new trend.


Members are part of a private peer discussion space where they can share experiences, ask questions, and learn from other independent retailers facing similar challenges.
The emphasis isn’t on constant posting, but on having access to the right people when perspective or reassurance is needed.
It’s a place for practical conversation, shared insight, and occasional celebration of progress - without the noise of public forums.
Members have access to a curated library of practical resources drawn from real-world retail experience.
This includes selected video sessions, business tools, and team-focused materials that can be used when relevant - not as a course to work through from start to finish.
The emphasis is on having the right resource at the right time, supporting better conversations with your team and more confident decision-making as a business owner, rather than consuming content for its own sake.
