Now Sheila feels that she knows how to deal with salesmen, how to deal with customers, how to deal with losses. "At The Arbor the first time someone shoplifted I cried. I took it so personally." Sheila has tough ambition goals for he.r men's wear business. Her concept for the store is to provide superior quality clothing with a young fashion look appeal for men in the 25 to 50 age bracket. She refuses to agonize over the business lessons she learned at The Arbor. Sheila flatly states that she'll give the men's wear store three years to make a profit. "I enjoy retail. If this doesn't work, I'll probably find another store."

There's the time involved in the store's hours of operation. There's time involved in buying stock, rearranging merchandise, decorating windows, maintaining the shop, keeping up on the bookwork, worrying about the business. Carolyn estimates that she has less than five hours of leisure time at home each week. Some weeks she may only have one free hour to spare. "They -also say that if you succeed at business you marriage won't," she notes. Carolyn realizes however that there are limitations in the amount of time that she can devote to her business. She stresses, "There has to be a point where you stop. You can only do so much." Is her business venture a success? Carolyn says, "Ask me in five years....Women generally succeed in business because they don't expect too much too fast. They're willing to make it grow." Carolyn's next phase of her lifetime pl. is to do just that. 1 0 TWANG LE DISCOUNT..,.. i PRE - sALENov. 26 - Dec. 10/86 10 Roll Christmas Paper 26" x 500"2 Only Silver Icicles 1000 Strands Braun Electric Razors 99 Large Assortment of Boxed Christmas Cards 250,„ Off Only 159 Maybelline Great Lash Mascara or Lip Colour 49 Only 2• 2S0/ Off Brut 33 Gift Sets 99 Only 5• Bic Disposable Twin Mini Lighters Buxton Leather Wallets Only 13.99 Old Spice After Shave 125 Mi.
