How do you spin a self employed erstwhile business on resume? I have run a retail business for yesteryear 5yrs. Started

I have run a retail business for yesteryear 5yrs. Started from scratch. due to financial conditions in out nouns and state I had to report bankruptcy. How can I put this contained by a positive light on my resume?

Answers: Nothing to be ashamed of. The experience shows that you know how to clutch initiative and that you can create value. Five years be a good run.

I would suggest one point: You need to fashion sure that you have well-read a thing or two from your experience. With the risk of sounding mean, "Economic conditions surrounded by [our] area and state" sounds a bit resembling a cop out. Is there anything you could own done? Did you learn something that can give support to your next employer not label the same mistake?

Anyway, my hat off to you for taking the risk of starting your own business, It took courage.
