Steps to Cautiously Build Food Sales when Opening a Dollar Store
It’s often hard to know which merchandise to add after opening a dollar store. It can be confusing since dollar store sale levels can change on a daily basis during those first few weeks. Yet somehow you must make sense from what is happening to minimize the time until dollar store profits begin to appear. Fortunately there is one dollar store merchandise category that can be depended on to quickly begin to grow. That category is groceries and snacks. Yet it is important to move forward cautiously as you begin to add products to the grocery mix. There is some level of risk, and you cannot afford to make a mistake during those early days of business.
If you are opening a dollar store be sure to start with just the basics unless you have prior grocery experience. Canned good, spices and other grocery items with long shelf life are a good place to start. As customers become aware you carry these items they will ask about plans to add more. They will even offer their suggestions about items they would purchase. As a consistent message emerges you can slowly add items to the dollar store merchandise mix with lower risk. Just remember most food items come with regulations regarding handling and dating issues.

Turning Around Under-performing Public Companies in an Overcrowded Public Market
According to Colin Wallace at Publex Ventures, over 5,000 public companies in the U.S can be classified as small-cap or micro-cap “orphans” that don’t benefit from a liquid market. While they have the obligations of being public, they don’t have effective access to the public capital markets. Publex introduced an interesting solution to this problem — the fund strategically engineers mergers between early-stage private companies and under-performing public companies, to accelerate liquidity while preserving the superior returns of early-stage investing.
Publex invests before, during, and after merging these companies into an operating public company that is under-performing or is in need of new technologies, business lines, or management to maximize its growth potential and attract market attention. “While there are many funds that invest in both public and private vehicles, Publex is unique in its business model of investing in private companies with the express purpose of combining them with an under-performing public company, then investing further in the combined public entity,” said Wallace.
Another interesting solution is offered by Silicon Valley start-up www.IdeaMamaClub.com, founded by a serial entrepreneur Olga Kostrova. IdeaMama’s unique virtual IP incubation platform offers a pre-assessed micro-cap deal flow, co-developed by its user community. IdeaMamaClub.com facilitates innovations in various industries including biotechnology, commerce, education, energy, entertainment, environment, finance, health, information technology, materials, space, transportation, and others.
The Media Mantra: Prepare, Prepare, Prepare
Because our Public Relations company is known to the media as a resource, we continually receive calls from print and electronic media looking for story ideas. These calls usually come when the media is on a deadline and need something – now! In those situations, the appropriate client has to be ready to move in a flash, which means he or she has to be prepared and ready to go. Although media placement usually takes some time, there are also those instances that a press release immediately hits the jackpot. We have emailed a press release on a client at 9 a.m. and have had that client doing a live TV interview at noon that same day. You have to be ready. Remember; don’t unleash the power of the media until you’re prepared to control it. Public relations can be tricky because you have to be both patient and prepared. If you’re not prepared to do an interview, it could turn out to be a dismal experience. You can end up feeling depressed and embarrassed, the media will feel cheated, and you will have wasted an incredible opportunity.
So prepare. Review the image you want to convey - small town and friendly, authoritative, professional, humorous, avant-garde, formal and business-like - whatever. But make sure that your image matches your personality. If you are basically shy and retiring, don’t try to come off like a rock star. It ain’t gonna work. You may have to learn to project more and become a bit more forceful with your responses, but those are simply tools you learn to utilize when needed. Keep your voice modulated. Be dynamic, but not frenzied. Your mission here is not to alter your personality, but to enhance it. Have both your information and your delivery ready to go. That way, when the media does respond, you’ll be ready.
