Our Experience

Retail marketing specialists

We understand how unpredictable and challenging retail is, with endless decisions to be made about how best to reach and serve customers. Consumer expectations are at an all-time high and loyalty less guaranteed.

And when the pandemic hit everything ramped up another notch!

With over 20 years’ experience working with some of the biggest retail brands in the southwest we can support your retail business by acting as a strategic advisor to share ideas, discuss concerns, and create opportunities.

Our approach

We work at Board level to provide our clients with direction on how best to future proof their proposition. We challenge them on how they demonstrate being a purpose-driven retail business and how well they really understand and engage with their customers.

We help with visionary planning, branding, store, category & own label development, audience analysis and customer engagement strategies. And then once the strategy is agreed we work with the marketing team to implement plans which deliver results.

Retail logistics & operations

Through Chalk + Ward Management Consultancy we are also able to advise our retail clients on their business performance & logistics. We provide resource and capacity to directly co-ordinate strategy execution across the business, removing functional barriers and silos.
