* we are already working directly with brands, business specialists, and providers to help refill shops with better margins, have the skills to be noticed, and grow their businesses.
* we want to connect refill shops with brands who truly care about the two main things we care about, non-toxic ingredients and environmentally responsible packaging and business practices. Our goal is also to find those brands who will not sell on major online or corporate brick-and-mortar stores, but will make refill stores a priority to sell in.
(Hey there, @Dipalready.....we see you!)
Those are the brands our customers want to know and need to know about so we can rise the tide of responsible business and shop local mentality.
*we want to connect start up refill stores with things like solid insurers who understand our business, economically and eco-friendly store display companies, best practice hints and marketing hacks that will save owners time and money, just to name a few. There are so many things to think about when opening a refill shop, so as experienced owners who have been through the ups and downs, we want to help refill shops quickly get to being profitable. It doesn't mean we want to make all the decisions for you, but we have gone down the path and are leaving breadcrumbs for others to follow. You can take it or leave it. If you have already started your refill shop, you will become even more profitable by lowering costs through our partnerships.
