Event Details

For emerging designers, finding the right sales strategies has become an on-going conversation. Wholesale poses challenges for several reasons, but it also provides credibility and brand awareness. Going direct-to-customer through pop-up shops, private events and even Instagram sales are being used to breakthrough, but also require resources, a marketing budget and content creation. Many designers are left asking what will work for my business and how can I thrive.

Our conversation will allow the audience to learn from designers that are navigating their own path by trying new sales methods for retail success. We’ll also open it up to the audience to ask plenty of questions in the spirit of knowledge share and conversation.

Attendees will walk away with a better understand on:

Different ways brands are trying to sell and gain awareness
Pros and cons of various sales strategies
How to determine what’s right for you
Designer insights and learnings
Social selling and resources
Q&A and information share

Speakers include

Melissa Hall, Founder of The Emerging Designer
Tim Joo and Dan Joo, Founders of Haerfest
Vanessa Perel-Panar, Founder of Vanessa Lianne Jewelry
Deanna Ansara, Founder of Vincetta Studio and Owners
