​​​​​GET INDIVIDUALIZED SOLUTIONS

​We won't hop into problem-solving right away. We need to study the puzzle and get clear on what you'll want to accomplish in 2021 and beyond... without sacrificing even more of yourself.

​Then, after I've asked you questions and listened, I'll formulate personalized remedies backed by 23+ years of industry experience.
​​RECEIVE A STEP-BY-STEP ACTION PLAN

Rather than pile on even more work, we'll identify pivotal decisions that make the most of your money, time, resources, and holiday inventory.

​You'll know what actions you can take, why those moves connect you to your 2020 recovery + 2021 success, different ways you can make things happen, and when to start the work so you can reap the benefits when you need them.

Merchant Method Client Faye Ziegeweid, Queen Fayzel
"My business is very new and everything I had planned was based on a pre-pandemic world. I wasn't sure where I needed to focus my time and effort for the remainder of 2020. Merchant Method took time to assess the current state of my business and talk through my challenges and concerns.

​
I like that Chris encourages experimentation, and provides ways to then assess the experiments. Her approach is one of curiosity combined with tons of knowledge and experience, so she can really quickly figure out what's going on for an individual business, and then apply her wisdom to the situation."
"The way Chris communicates information is easy to grasp. Not only she was able to show me systems to address my questions but also worked with me to find the direction I needed & drove my thinking process beyond my initial questions.

Every piece of advice Chris offers is something that you can implement in your business practices again and again. Thank you Chris, I am really grateful & really look forward to work with you again in the future."

Hi! I’m Chris, Founder of Merchant Method.

When I first began Merchant Method, I realized something interesting. While there are fundamentals all inventory-based businesses must know, there are exceptions to every rule. That’s why personalized guidance — not a course, not a book, not one-size-fits-all education — is often the only thing that really works. 

But not everyone has the time or funding to invest in a long-term partnership. So, I needed to find a way to provide retail coaching without the big commitment.

Enter my one-time VIP business coaching sessions, Retail Relief. High-touch, no commitment —​ with an ROI you can measure.
