Edge Retail Academy Offers New ‘A La Carte’ Business Classes
The mentorship-focused program is providing jewelry retailers with specialized classes in over 30 topics.
Omaha, Neb.--The Edge Retail Academy is offering new, specialized classes for jewelry retailers under the umbrella of its A La Carte Business Solutions Program.
The program was designed for jewelry store owners and/or senior management to be able to pick and choose a tailored curriculum for their needs, as opposed to enrolling in a full mentorship program.
Jewelers can choose from one or any number of A La Carte’s mentored courses led by industry professionals.
Courses cover topics within finance, inventory management and staffing. Some of the offerings include Cash Flow Analysis, Review to Debt Reduction, Optimum Inventory Level, Gross Margin Return on Investment, Hiring for Success and Effective Team Management.
In total, there are over 30 A La Carte mentored offerings.

“Many of our retail clients work with us in our Mentoring Program and have bigger needs and look for our expertise each and every month. They want us to work with them on a myriad of business problems,” Co-Founder and President David Brown said.
“However, many retailers have very specific needs and this allows them to work with a team of experts specifically for the one need they have. And, as always, there are no contracts with the Edge Retail Academy, so there is no risk.”
