Retail, Reimagined: The Story Behind Pre Loved Geelong with Lou Hammer
Manage episode 478718010 series 3482730
In this episode, I sit down with Lou Hammer, the powerhouse behind Pre Loved Geelong—a thriving secondhand and consignment store that started as a pop-up hustle and now boasts a bricks-and-mortar location, thriving online sales, and a fiercely loyal community.
Lou gets real about:
- 💼 Starting from scratch while juggling life, kids, and a side hustle
- 🛍️ How she scaled from eBay to Instagram to a full-on retail store
- 🧵 Why curation and customer avatars matter more than ever in fashion
- 📈 The systems that save her 10+ hours/week in admin
- ✨ The mindset shift that helped her thrive through Covid chaos
- 🔁 Why “done is better than perfect” is her north star
If you’ve ever thought about opening a retail space, selling pre-loved products, or you just want the behind-the-scenes of a heart-led, data-backed fashion business—this one’s for you!
