It is not fame or fortune that motivates you to run your own business.
 
Your inspiration runs deeper.
 
It’s a desire to express your unique aesthetic to the works, a need to connect with your community, a drive to fill a void in the marketplace, a hope to provide your customers with a remarkable experience.
 
You are inspired by passion.
 
Isn’t it time for us to come together and celebrate our shared passion?
 
SHOP/08 is a conference to celebrate, inspire, and educate independent business owners of all stripes. Whether you’re a newbie still figuring out the nuts and bolts or a veteran needing fresh ideas, we’d love to spend that day with you.
