Following a successful visit in early 2017, Katoomba-based Ms Bagaric will return to help businesses wow customers and boost their bottom line with a series of free events.

A free Women in Business breakfast next Monday will showcase Ms Bagaric’s journey to becoming one of the country’s fore-most authorities on retail space design, customer flow and visual merchandising.

Ms Bagaric will also highlight her work with regional communities who have built their reputation as a retail destination.

Council mayor Paul Harmon says is also an invaluable opportunity for women in business to connect with others.

“The event has received an excellent response from local women, including those working in small business, shop owners and women passionate about progressing Inverell.”

Ms Bagaric’s week long visit also will provide local business with an opportunity to receive a free in-store consultation, which encompasses all aspects of visual merchandising, including store layout, signage, shop-window design and also how customers flow within the premises.

“Last year, Carol worked with moteliers, the food industry and of course retail businesses in the CBD, so her expertise is also on offer to service based businesses, including accountants, offices and medical practices”.

“We also have several businesses that Carol worked with last year who have opted in for a follow up consultation to build their business further”.

Ms Bagaric has worked with top end retailers such as Myer and also consulted to the likes of Westfield. She has also worked extensively with leading regional centres such as Mudgee, Wagga, Byron Bay and Orange.

Business owners and managers can receive a free individual consultation with Ms Bagaric by calling Council on 6728 8288 or emailing council@inverell.nsw.gov.au.
