"My brother and I have reimagined our marketing and promotional
calendar. We expect fewer markdowns and fewer advertising costs,
which our accountant loves. We have recently uprooted our business
and have moved across the state line. It's quite a bit different over
here, and we're still learning our way. But we have great hopes. Retail
shoemen always have hope."
— Mark Jubelirer, Reyers Shoe
