Small shop owners manage all aspects of the business, from the physical purchase of merchandise to the final sale. AI allows them to compete through the use of digital management tools and low-cost social media marketing. However, the core of their success in Spain is physical proximity, personal knowledge of the clientele, and the daily manual effort at the point of sale.
