I offer two decades of experience in branded merchandise. I have worked with Fortune 500 companies, small businesses and everything in between to develop premium branded merchandise strategies. My companies have sold 10s of millions of dollars in branded merch. I am currently a Partner at the branded merchandise agency, WABII Branding. During my time in the branded merchandise space, I have attended hundreds of events around the globe. I am well versed in what works well and what does not. I help clients enhance their brands, increase marketing ROI and get more out of event initiatives through well-planned, creative merch. When you put your company’s logo on merch and give it to someone it is a representation of your company. If this is done well branded merch can be a powerful marketing tool. If it is done poorly it can be detrimental. I am here to share my deep knowledge working with some of the world’s most recognizable brands to develop winning branded merch strategies.
