I’m a Shoe dog. The term is an industry slang word given to a veteran of the shoe industry. I have worn the badge with honor since 1980. This is my journey in the footwear industry and the lessons I learned along the way. Some were easy lessons and some were tough. I'm sharing my journey to help others who have either decided a career in retail or managing others. My passion has always been to help others find success in their careers and to improve business in the best possible way. I am in the process of updating my blog site at : https://solemanstudios.com
