Welcome to The ResourceWelcome to The Resource….. but…. just what is The Resource? Our retailers have all enjoyed the OneCoast Advisor (now the SnapAdvisor ), so OneCoast wanted to continue the tradition by providing valuable information that retailers would find idea generating and could incorporate into their business. The Resource will focus on actionable “ideas” – merchandising ideas, event ideas, product ideas- brought to you by experts and expert retailers, that we hope you find timely, helpful and valuable. As you read The Resource over the upcoming months, I would love to hear your ideas and feedback. Please share your thoughts with me by emailing me at john.keiser@onecoast.com. Thanks for reading The Resource. We hope you enjoy it. |
