What Clients Are Saying

  • We could not have launched our brand into the Australian market without Susie. She helped us with our strategic positioning, pricing strategy, and merchandise plan. Her feedback on our fashion collection was and continues to be crucial. Many of our tactical decisions were made based on the strategic foundation that Susie helped us build. She also led our rebrand, ensuring our identity resonated with our target market, and continues to guide our ongoing marketing efforts, helping us grow and refine our presence. She has my highest recommendation.
