Question from Ashby Cummings, Owner of MI-Fillosophy in Plymouth, MI (and from Episode 15): if you could go back to the beginning and change one thing about how you opened your store, what would you change?

Question to the next refill store owner(s): we have our core customers and the biggest challenge is getting new customers... We have loyal ones that have been refilling the same bottle for 7 years… How are you getting new customers? What is the process like? What the real strategies? How can we get more people to make the switch?
