It’s been a year. We’ve all been hit by one crisis after another, and it’s fair to feel pretty burnt out.
We need inspiration. We need stories. We need something to help us hold it together in the middle of these interlocking crises.
Enter: Resilient Retail. Shopify’s brand new virtual event series is all about connecting retail industry experts and operators to share the tips, tactics, and cutting-edge knowledge they’re using to weather the current storm.
加入我们星期四,9月3日美国东部时间下午1点our debut conversation- life raft included.
It was already a tough climate for retailers before the global pandemic hit. Now, surviving—much less thriving—is a daily battle.
The retailers left standing when the dust settles will be the ones that are able to flex and change, adapting their businesses to the new normal.
And it’s so, so important that small retailers survive. Your businesses are the foundation of your local economies and communities. Your neighbors know they can rely on you in good times and bad. You’re part of the culture that makes your home, well,home.
So how do you keep the dream alive, even in the chaos of 2020? Well, that’s the foundational question for Resilient Retail.

So what’s coming up?
OnSeptember 3rdI’m sitting down with powerhouse duo Coco & Breezy for a conversation on running a Black-owned business in 2020, designing glasses for Lady Gaga and Prince (yeah,thatPrince), and more.
Then, onSeptember 10th, DTC expert Nik Sharma and Retail Brew writer extraordinaire Halie LeSavage are coming on the show to talk about what's bound to be one of the strangest BFCM seasons in history. It’s everything you need to prepare for the holidays and beyond- including new retail moves like curbside pickup, shop ‘n ship, and so much more.
