Why I Ditched My Book (and My Old Business) for Playbooks That Actually Work

MP3•Episode home

I built my business on conferences and bestselling books — until the world changed and suddenly, none of it worked anymore...

Welcome to Retail Reckoning. I'm Clare Bailey, founder of Retail Champion.

Lockdown forced me to rethink everything. Instead of republishing my old books, I created something that actually fits the way people learn and work now — short, practical Playbooks.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I made that leap, what I learned, and why it’s been the most relevant thing I’ve ever done for modern retailers.
