Retail Merchandising

Identify and implement the appropriate tools to have the best offer in store in order to boost the sales and ensure a qualitative customer experience:

1- Maximise the sales : prefer in-depth stock on a limited number of best-sellers SKUs

2- Focus the teams energy on the customer experience and the preparation of tomorrow’s growth segments (buyings, VM consistency, staff training)

3- Reduce the stock level per store : animate the slow-movers, get a central e-commerce stock….

4- Analyse the sales and the collection plans to make collection plan briefings, taking into account both performance and brand identity.

How it works : 2 to 6 months missions (2 to 3 days a week)

Omnichannel Strategy

The customer expects from the luxury brands an experience as qualitative as their products. In those organisations where the retail and the digital are not always king, and where the habits are deeply rooted, the challenge is to move forward and to convince the teams at the same time.

1- Audit of the current omnichannel experience

2- Recommendations taking into account the brand identity

3- if necessary, project management to implement new services, such as the store to web, the click and collect, or the e-reservation.

The topic will be taken as a whole, compensations & benefits, training, IT follow up…

How it works : 2 to 6 months missions (2 - 3 days a week)
