"French Thompson" (C) 2012 Miachelle DePiano. |
Running a
business in the Phoenix region is only for the strongest and hardiest of people.
Small business owners take advantage of a very distinct tourist and transient
resident season to survive. Those small business owners who provide necessary
services and products stand a chance of surviving. Small business owners who
provide a luxury and endure the financial droughts are indeed the hardiest of
them all.
French Thompson
is an example of survival in such a fiercely competitive environment. The
15-year owner of French Designer Jeweler
on Main Street in Scottsdale, he survives while a multitude of art galleries
and boutiques around him have come and gone. Thompson's gallery provides an
array of fine art jewelry, catering to those desiring to find something more
deeply personal and expressive.
