Retail Business in 2025 – Thriving or Surviving? | Business Minded with Angie B.

Hey all my billionaire friends!

Welcome back to Business Minded with Angie B.—your go-to podcast for real talk on business, branding, and entrepreneurship! I’m your host, Angie B., and today, we’re diving deep into the retail industry in 2025. With a new administration in office, what does that mean for small business owners? Should we keep pushing forward or adjust our strategies?

Here’s what we’re covering in this episode:
The Good: Consumer spending trends, the power of e-commerce, and the “buy small” movement.
The Bad: Rising costs, tax concerns, and the increasing competition from big brands.
The Uncertain: Interest rates, funding opportunities, and changes in labor laws.

Should you be cautious or keep moving? My answer: Both. Stay informed, stay adaptable, and never let fear stop your growth. In this episode, I break down actionable steps to help your business stay ahead of the game.

Key Takeaways:
✔️ Cut unnecessary expenses & focus on high-ROI investments.
✔️ Diversify income streams—e-commerce, pop-ups, collaborations.
✔️ Build a strong brand & loyal community around your business.
✔️ Stay plugged into policy changes & economic trends.

Collaboration Over Competition: Let’s shift from a scarcity mindset to a growth mindset. There’s enough business for everyone! I’ll share why working together beats working against each other.

Faith Over Fear: Fear and faith can’t exist in the same space. If God gave you the vision, He will also provide the resources to make it happen. Trust the process! Proverbs 3:5-6
