"Beth has been helping Young Soles with business development for the last 6 months and has quickly established herself as an integral part of our team.

She has done an amazing job of reaching out to new and past retailers, opening doors and making connections not just in the UK but also internationally. Her enthusiasm and positive outlook combined with tenacity and determination has been perfect for securing appointments and orders with hard-to-reach retailers.

She is a joy to work with a fresh and friendly rapport that relaxes and disarms the most difficult of retailers. Her communication skills make staying on top of things a breeze and she is only a phone call or WhatsApp message away.

We would highly recommend Beth to anyone looking to build or expand their retailer base."

Stu Anderson, CEO of Young Soles London

"I am thrilled to share my experience working with Beth, who joined our team as a business development consultant for three months. From the outset, Beth demonstrated an exceptional ability to bring in new retail business and connect us with invaluable contacts that have significantly contributed to our company's growth. Her passion for her work is evident in everything she does, and her tenacity in pursuing new opportunities is truly inspiring.

Beth has a natural talent for building rapport with new clients, making them feel instantly comfortable and valued. Her excellent follow-up and strong communication skills ensured that nothing fell through the cracks, consistently delivering impressive results. Her friendly demeanor and approachable nature made her a pleasure to work with, and she was always just a phone call away whenever we needed her insights or assistance.

I highly recommend Beth to any organisation looking to expand its business horizons, as her expertise and enthusiasm make her a tremendous asset."

Emma Weldon, Co-Founder of Bumbles & Boo

Helen Wetz, Co-Founder of Avery Row

"Beth recently supported us on a project to grow our stockists in the UK. We were struggling to get replies from any of the Buyers we were contacting, and needed a new approach. Beth did an amazing job of opening up doors for us, making connections with retailers we had never been able to get a response from, and in many cases, securing appointments.

Beth also attended a couple of our more high profile meetings and was great in helping the meeting flow and feel relaxed. Beth has some great contacts from her previous experience, but was also really resourceful in reaching out via different methods to eventually get to the right person and make an introduction.

Would highly recommend working with Beth!"

"Beth was highly recommended by a good client of mine. When we started working together, she checked all my presentations to make sure they were retail ready and then within two months, I was sitting in front of the nursery buyer for Selfridges with Beth there for support. Since then, I have had meetings with a whole host of retailers and recently just been accepted into Fenwick.

Beth not only is great at getting you in front of the people you want to but also preparing you and supporting you through the whole process. Often when working with consultants they keep contacts to themselves... not Beth; she is fully transparent at all times, I am cc'd on every email and there is a table with full status report that I can revert to at any time

I love working with Beth, she brings fresh eyes, she is fast-moving, hugely knowledgeable about the retail and really buys into your brand. I cannot recommend her highly enough!"

Nicole Fletcher, Founder of Baby Bare Bubbles

"This is the 3rd brand that I have worked with Beth on. Why? Because I have never met a consultant that buys into a brand so much and is always looking for fresh angles and approaches.

I was mistaken when I thought that Beth just dealt with retailers; she will get you in front of pretty much anyone and has been working on corporate spas for us as well as luxury retail. Beth's ability to grasp the concept of your brand and find a way to pitch it is amazing. She managed to get me in front of people whose first answer was no and then suddenly they are looking at taking our brand.

Trust in her, it definitely pays off!"

"We have really loved working with Beth. Her knowledge and insight into the industry is so valuable. Beth has been really instrumental in helping us to secure meetings with the most prestigious stores and having her there as a sounding board to help prepare our buying pitch has been so great. We see Beth as an integral player in our wholesale strategy and hope to work with her for many seasons to come".

"Beth understood how unique Hyclo was straight away! Her enthusiasm was so genuine and within a couple of months we had met with everyone from Nordstrom to Holland & Barret, she just managed to get those meetings, and for those that didn't want to meet at least I could cross them off my list.

Beth is always pushing me for the next angle, the next product, I believe she truly wants this to work. I would have been so nervous going into a lot of the meetings but once I did one with Beth I now feel confident and excited going into each as her support is invaluable.

I really recommend Beth, if you are retail-ready, she should be your 1st call... and even if you are not, call her anyway as she will help you get there."
