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. Want to elevate your company’s branded merch? Get in touch
