I had a hard time coming up with a way to organize the tiny storage area of my store. I could get it together but then more inventory comes in. Melissa asked a lot of questions to find systems that made reordering & restocking a million times easier. Honestly I can’t even remember how it looked before she came. I was wasting a ton of space with broken equipment (including a non working refrigerator) & she had everything hauled out the same day.
