MY FASHION MARKET

FORTE

Great ideas? Plenty here! I'm a fashion focused market consultant and merchandise analyst who merges hands on industry experience, educational insight and customized consumer preferences for the forward thinking fashion business. Case building for fashion startups with sustainability & transparency at the forefront of planning. Revitalization strategies for established fashion concept store from popup to brick & mortar retailer. You've found a fashion retail concept store optimizer who has literally walked the walk. Gain next level fashion marketing solutions to stay ahead of the competition.

Your superpower is proprietorship! You are passionate about what you do and focused on being the best at it. But if you're anything like me, you just need a task'pert to do their thing so you can do yours better.

Busy is an understatement, the bucket list is rich. You're prioritizing your mission, the function and customer first focus. Kudos! It's those "get to's" like proof of concept data, ideating an interior revitalization, optimizing fashion merchandise mix or formulating customized consumer preference data post event or season to gain topic specific conversion tactics . You need a fashion marketing expert to give you some communicative scope for the competitive edge that you aim for. When you don't have all the answers, delegate this fact-finder to research, prepare & action plan them for you.

I'm ready to take your call.

She knows the right questions to ask to harvest even the ones you dared not to dream and factors them into the end result. My biggest aha moment was how taking this step toward hiring a professional elevated me to the level I was hoping to accomplish without compromise.
