Our long-time author Jean Wells is one of those people who accomplish so much that you have to wonder how they find enough hours in the day to cram everything in. In addition to writing more than a dozen books with C&T Publishing, she has founded two successful retail stores (The Stitchin’ Post quilt shop and The Wild Hare gift shop, both in Sisters, Oregon), organized the wildly popular Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show, and teaches and lectures all around the world. Whew!
Now Jean has taken on a new challenge—helping quilt shop owners prosper in a very difficult retail environment. Jean’s new online club for shop owners, Jean Wells’ Secrets to Retail Success, distills everything Jean has learned about merchandising, shop management, hosting events, and running classes, into a 12-month club, complete with monthly articles, photo gallery, and question-and-answer forum.

What a marvelous resource! I rushed right over to sign up for my shop. Her first article about displays is timely - we got a new fabric collection in this week and did a creative display for it. I’ll have to send Jean some pictures. Creating displays is just about my favorite part of retail.
