Hi There! I'm Amanda

Let's get to know each other better

I'm passionate about all things retail and have spent my entire career developing brands in the retail space. I have experience working with multiple online marketplaces such as Amazon, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe's, Target ,and more. If you are a brand looking to get started or expand online, I'd love to chat.

A BUSINESS CONSULTANT THAT CARES

I've spent the last 15+ years working for corporate retailers and brands in Buying, Merchandising, and Digital Strategy positions. Call me crazy, but I love the ever-changing, fast-paced environment that retail provides. Let's just say I was hooked from day 1.

​

In my past roles with retailers like Ross and Amazon, I worked with hundreds of vendors and managed millions of dollars. In order to effectively grow my business, I had to learn how to quickly identify top opportunities and manageable ways to implement them. Even with a business generating over $100M in revenue a year, I was still a team of one.

​

Creating strategies became my superpower. I love digging into the data and finding solutions to a problem, and I hate wasting time. My programs were designed with a small business owner in mind- someone who has the drive to grow their business but lacks the time and resources to put a strategy into place.

​

 Oh, and it shouldn't break the bank to find a teammate that can help you grow. Instead of pitching high monthly retainer fees like most consultants, we will work together for 6-12 weeks and you will leave the program with clear direction, actionable tactics, and automated reports and processes to continue to make change.

​

As a small business owner myself, I understand how important community is. I would love to help you build your dream.

​

I reside in beautiful Asheville, NC and am available for in-person meetings in WNC, Asheville, and Greenville. For those outside of the area I work with businesses all over the US and Canada virtually. Let's chat! I would love to know more about your business challenges and see how I may be able to help.

Nothing Is More Precious Than Your Time

Time is our most precious resource, and it is not unlimited. I am a true believer that the things we put our energy into will flourish and grow.  But are you putting your energy into the right strategies?  After a day of unpacking inventory, working with customers, and trying to keep up with social media- we are often left too exhausted to create a plan.

Together we will identify the best metrics to track to keep your business healthy. I make a CLEAR plan on how you should be spending your efforts in order to drive the most impactful results.

I then create easy, automated reports specific to your KPI's and create easy processes for you and your team members to manage. Get your time back so you can focus on doing the things that you love.
