Ciara Stockeland is a speaker, author, 4x Ironman and Fractional CFO for inventory based businesses. Ciara has owned and operated a business since her early teens. As a serial entrepreneur, her business mindset and tenacity led her to opening her first store in 2006 which she then franchised. Her vast experience in both retail and wholesale industries led her to launch the first to market wholesale subscription box for boutique retailers, which she built and sold within 18 months. Most recently Ciara has launched the Inventory Genius, a consulting program for inventory-based business owners and has published the books Inventory Genius and Profit Genius, both of which give practical steps for creating more profitability in an inventory based business.
