Welcome to Adventures in Retail, the first official blog from Riley’s Trick Shop.
What we’ll attempt to do here is keep you up-to-date with what’s happening here at Riley’s. We’ll let you know about new products and services as they become available. You’ll find links to videos and websites of interest to our customers.
We’ll also bring you stories of dealing with the public. As anyone who’s worked on the front lines can tell you, every time you pick up the phone or open your front door can be an adventure. Of course, names and other revealing information will be changed to protect the innocent–mainly us.
If you have an interesting retail story from behind the counter please feel free to send it to jim@rileystrickshop.com. We want to hear from anyone who’s had to deal with a customer who’s been a challenge, a delight, or who just ruined your day. Do not send us your stories of dealing with a bad clerk. Start your own blog for that.
Please check back often. This is a novelty business. Novelty comes from the Latin word for new. There is always something new here at Riley’s Trick Shop.
Life at the interface between merchant and consumer.
