1hour call with The Fashion Expert® on launching a fashion brand

I'm Michelle Ramsay - The Fashion Expert® with over 20 years of experience as a Fashion Designer & Consultant, I have a vast wealth of knowledge in all aspects of the fashion industry. Over the past 7 years, I have specialised in helping people who are not from the fashion industry start and launch successful brands. If you want to start up a fashion business it can be pretty tough to find out information on how to go about this but I'm here to help.
This hourlie provides 1 hour with me to discuss your fashion brand via video or audio call.
Whether you are a fashion start-up that needs general guidance, mentoring and support, or an established brand looking to improve your business model, each session is tailored to you.

Consultancy is available to anyone on an ad-hoc basis, whatever stage you're at in your business, pre or post launch.

If you need a designer to help take your raw idea and translate it into a format that a factory can understand then I can help out with this too.

I look forward to helping you launch your brand and make your idea a successful reality.
