Merchandising Mastery

Become the go-to brand for your ideal customers

Your dreams CAN become a reality – let’s pave the way for your growth and expansion

The most expensive mistake to make in retail is treating every product the same way

Stop assuming that what has got you here so far is also what will take you where you need to go.

Alison McAleavy, ZIG&STAR

“Working with Anna essentially pays for itself. She looks at your buying patterns and finds ways to deliver more sales and profitability rather than just trying to figure things out on your own . Anna is a specialist who is also pragmatic, hard-working and adaptable. She understands strategy and what works commercially, but also can get down into the detail... I can't recommend her highly enough.”

    “As a small business owner I often find myself having to be jack of all trades. I asked Anna to help me with pricing my new collection and, by the questions she asked me, I instantly knew I was in safe hands. She helped me completely restructure my costings in a way that made much more sense to my business model and my customer. Anna was patient and professional from start to finish and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services.”
