Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Kayla Ashlee from Spexy.
Kayla joins me live on location at IDOC Connection 2024 to talk all things optical. Optical is admittedly an area of practice management that has always been intriguing because of the retail component—I feel like there are a lot of “retail 101” lessons that we can take from how other retailers manage their business. While practice owners may not have the multi-million dollar IT and inventory management systems that large, big-box retailers have, Kayla illustrate why it doesn’t take an incredible amount of time, energy, or expertise to significantly improve the way you run your optical, and thus the profitability of your practice. We talk about best practices for frame reordering and the common mistakes and missteps she sees opticals making, whether it’s beneficial to be “an inch wide and a mile deep or a mile wide and an inch deep” with regards to frame lines and designs, a case study on how one optical was able to increase their sunglasses sales, and how to think about showcasing different brands to increase sales of a particular line.
