Lunch and Learn: How to create trust with manufacturers

I’ve had the privilege of working in our fashion industry for 25 years. In that time, I’ve seen the good and bad; the scaling and the failing. The connection between product excellence, ethical development, and a flourishing independent brand, is vital. For the last 14 years under my business Source Lingerie, I have single-handedly designed, developed and manufactured thousands of products for my cherished, small independent brands. What I learned quickly, was many founders felt held back by the complexity of developing their product ideas. The constant trial and error can slow the pace of results and push out that all important launch date, indefinitely. This kills confidence, eats away at the finances and motivation stalls to carry on. So I coach founders in how to tackle the process clearly and responsibly to put the joy into the journey.
