A New Era Needs a New Kind of Shopkeeper
HOW I CAN HELP YOU
When you’re working in your business every day, it can be hard to see what’s working, what’s being missed and where things have gone a little stale.
I bring a fresh pair of eyes, a big injection of energy and more than 35 years of hands-on retail experience. I’ll look at everything from your layout, storytelling and retail basics to the way you connect with your customers, your community and other businesses.
Every business is different, so my ideas will always be shaped around yours. I combine instinct with a strong understanding of modern retail and changing customer behaviour to spot practical opportunities that can make a real difference.
Let’s begin with a free 30-minute discovery call to see how can I help your business thrive.
Client Testimonials
Adrienne and I had an informal chat which was then followed a few weeks later by a very professional presentation, including slides and ideas that she had collated specifically for Isabella. The presentation was ‘eye-opening’ and gave me so many ideas for moving forward in the future, it renewed my interest, which may have waned somewhat over thirty years, educated me regarding how the customers today want to experience a retail environment and gave me new product ideas and layout ideas.
Micaela, Isabella Flower ShopAdrienne truly is the ultimate retailer! During our 8 years together at her shop she used her impressive retail arsenal to create the most incredible experience (for the customer and the team), teaching us how to tailor our shopping experience to each customer we served with amazing attention to detail and leading us with energy and passion for creating a memorable high street in person buying experience.
Whether it was creating show stopping window displays together, working with other high street stores to create in store experiences or creating the most fun and engaging social media content Adrienne brings it all 110% - her energy is truly unmatched and every retailer has something to learn from this powerhouse!
Penny, Work ColleagueI am an advocate for my local high street. I’m always searching for ways to help local businesses and to make my high street thrive. In these difficult times, Adrienne’s advice and expertise has been invaluable. She’s approachable, knowledgeable and really takes the time to understand both you as an individual and your business. She gently but firmly re-introduces you to how your business is perceived by others. She then follows up with advice, specific to your business, offering you both short term and long term steps to improve and adjust your business to respond to what today’s customers are looking for. I cannot recommend Adrienne more highly.
