“All corporate employees should be required to work retail first.” You truly don’t know what it’s like to be hands-on, customer facing, unless you experience it. And it can change the course of your ability to show up and succeed - because a brand’s central identity is about elevating their consumer’s experience.

All corporate employees should be required to work retail first. …… When I started my role at Cotopaxi as the visual merchandising manager, there was no visual merchandising department. For the first few months of my job, I wanted to work the sales floor. It was imperative that I get to know the product, the customer, the space, the fixtures, and the overall Cotopaxi experience. After all, the retail store is where the brand lives and breathes. Most importantly, during that time I had the opportunity to work side-by-side with the retail staff before moving into a full leadership role. If you haven’t worked a customer service position and your company has a corporate and retail presence, I highly recommend getting some floor time. You will gain an even greater respect for the sales associates. They are the front line workers— not only are they experts on product knowledge, they often take on the burden of handling unavoidable encounters with the general public. Most customers are great, but not all are best behaved. It can be a demanding job in ways you may not expect. I formed a connection with the retail teams in those initial months on the sales floor, and that connection continued and sustained even as more and more stores were built. In order to develop a program from scratch it required building a new foundation of standards and best practices. Teams were expected to execute and maintain these new visual directives. This took a lot of training and practice to form a strategy that was successful and consistent across multiple doors, especially without the aid of mapping software. It was a very manual process and there was a constant stream of communication. Being hands-on and showing the “why’s” rather than telling the rules was always my method to teaching. I’d like to think we had a mutual respect. The retail fleet grew from five stores when I started to twenty stores when I finished. The timing never feels great with a lay off, but it was especially hard right before a seasonal flip and being the only visual merchandiser for the entire company. My immediate thought was, “what about the retail teams? I can’t leave them hanging.” And then I remembered the foundation that we built together. The teams have shown me time and time again how capable and empowered they are to create consistent and compelling visuals. If I am proud of anything, it is working with the retail teams— learning from them, and in turn watching them learn, grow, and do great work. ❤️ #retail #leadership #opentowork #visualmerchandising #management #training #collaboration

You know—-I show up differently. I know that. I know I show up with confidence, with the skill set and with the willingness to learn, adapt, and provide space. I know who I am, and that realization took more than a decade to come to. I am here to provide context through a creative lens, to assist in a vision with precision and an inclusive mindset. I am here to elaborate on a vision set and to uncover the misaligned segments that do not tell cohesive stories and provide impactful experiences. Visual merchandising is a science, a skill, and a solution. What it is not, is just a pretty diagram of clothes on a floor. What it is not, is just a executional relationship provided for teams. What it is not, is just the icing on the cake. We bake the cake and we provide the ingredients to be shared, understood, and incorporated, sifted even, into larger bodies of work, concepts, and strategies. Let’s not…
