Business development of a clothing company
The apparel industry can be a place of inspiration, creativity, and aesthetics, but it is also a highly competitive, global industry. To survive in the competition, apparel companies need to find their own specializations and workable business models.
A clothing business coach is a help to a company when direction is lost, goals are unachievable, or dreams have new patterns. Often, the situation requires an outside perspective, industry experience that cannot be found by searching on Google, or detailed knowledge of the secrets of the clothing business.
