Method 1 - Sales strategy.
A successful brand is reactional to both good and bad sales. Let Unzipped set up sales planning meetings to manage stock planning and pricing, such as mark-downs/promos for your brand.
We are connected to the industry leaders and trends to ensure your brands one step ahead. To define a successful sales strategy we must;
- Design the right product for the right market and timing
- Critical path management to ensure each collection is profitable and on-time
- Pricing strategy to ensure you have priced your product vs its market value and not a guesstimate
- Seek new partnerships & ventures to increase your reach to new audiences, therefore, increase your revenue stream
- Plus much more.

- As experts of the European eCommerce market, we proposed competitive pricing that also delivers our clients GM% in that region.

- We have successfully run black Friday events with our clients, proactively reacting to the market’s needs.
Method 2 - Customer experience.
Customer data is as valuable as diamonds! You need to treasure it and learn from it. We will help your brand to run email campaigns, surveys and suggest marketing improvements. With the end goal to drive engagement and sales for your brand.
A key metric we focus on is onboarding value; what is the average spend of your new customers within their first 90 days. Data shows this $ figure has a dramatic effect on their Annual Value per Customer (AVC).
We will teach you how to nurture a new customer and make them feel special whilst building brand affinity in their first 90 days.
Examples of how this service is currently helping our clients:
* We have helped brands set up their essential email sequences covering welcome series, purchase series including reviews and cart abandonment emails.
* We have trained clients to invest time in sending personalised product recommendation emails, to all 1st time and repeat buyers.
* We have helped brands to set up and define their community. Covering reward schemes, blogs and newsletter and community events all increasing engagement and trust with the brand.
Method 3 - Strategic partnerships.
- Are you wanting to launch in new markets, but don’t know how?

Through 3rd party eCommerce, wholesale or marketplace, we will connect your brand to global or local platforms. We will cover everything from the connections, 1st sales appointments, commercials and all comms. The goal is to launch your brand onto numerous new sales channels.

Method 5 - Fashion brand setup success.
A lot of brands launch quickly and maybe overlook the fundamental building blocks of running a fashion business; critical path management, seasonal option plans and sales budgets. Even branding is often overlooked. Have you truly defined who you are? What’s your USP? And what are your brand values?
We will fix that and build a solid fashion business framework for you to operate in, ensuring your future success.
