What We Do

Upward Curve

Business Development

While we are fully focused on sales and profit based results, it is how we deliver that matters.  Our connections at Target can quickly identify the categories and teams that are a good match for your products.  We will help position you to show up for Target at the right time, with the right team, and with the right products to maximize success.

Analytics

Being a high performing vendor is measured in several ways, and not just sales, margin, and turnover.  Instocks, on time shipments, and collaborative forecasting are a must to be successful.  Our team is well prepared to help you deliver on these metrics.

Global Approach

Our team is experienced in working with global manufacturers and design houses.  We will coach you on how to be successful not only with the Target US teams, but also with their global teams.  We understand global supply chains and how to align them to Target's requirements.

Missing Piece

Issue Resolution

While our top goal is to prevent them, potholes and hurdles can occur on either side.  We are solution-oriented.  Our team is able to triage problems, and partner with the right individuals to get back on track.  Our team works hard to "see around corners" to prevent surprises in the first place, and steer the way through.
