Top Tips For First Time Store Renovators

It’s the beginning of the New Year, which is the perfect time to determine what enhancements your store should enjoy in 2018. Looking to improve foot traffic, curb appeal, or employee productivity? If so, a renovation may be in the cards for 2018.

•                  Update The Visual Presentation Of Your Store - The New Year could be the perfect time for a store renovation. Consider creating a seasonal accent wall to display new or trendy products. Next, use color-coordinated signage to make them really pop off the display. Finally, light up areas differently to give a unique new look to the different sections of your store.

•                  Be Creative With Your Store Design - Remember, your only limit is your imagination! Create a design that best suits the needs and goals of your retail location. When renovating your store, it should not only accommodate all your store’s products, but also offer space for your customers to walk around and find things easily. Try to align design with your customers' goals and in addition to your own.

•                  Create A New Entrance - Your store’s entrance is the main area that decides whether the customer would like to enter your store or not. If your store has a flat front, construct a small decompression zone.  In order to highlight your store, you need to devote extra effort towards decorating your shops’ display windows and entrances.

•                  Decide Where To Place Your Products - It’s time to rethink your old fixtures and decide where to put your products. When deciding where to place certain products, look for ways to maximize wall and floor space. Use effective product placement to show customers more of what you have to offer, drawing them deeper into your store.

•                  Optimize Your Space - Renovate your store this New Year to maximize the space that you do have. Replace bulky display cabinets with sleeker more modern fixtures that will bring a more open feel to each area.
