Let’s Talk Shop with Jo Johnson from Form SE15

In this episode of Let’s talk shop, I chat to Jo Johnson, owner of fashion and lifestyle boutique Form SE15. Jo opened her shop after she was made redundant with the help of a small business grant and we talk all about:

- Jo’s story and background.

- How social media helped Jo grow her audience and customer base even before she opened her doors.

- How Jo finds new suppliers, what’s important and how to build a good relationship with a retail buyer. 

- How it differs to buy fashion vs. lifestyle products.

- The challenges of running an independent business.

- The ever-changing retail climate and how independent businesses can stand out.
