Testimonials

"Working with the retailers of Tweed City over a number of years, Debra has built a great rapport and enthusiastic following amongst business owner and store managers. Presenting inspirational Visual Merchandising, Marketing, Sales, and seasonal sales material ensures full classes on each visit, while retailers are keen to book one-on-one sessions to have Debra visit in store with more targeted advice. Debra’s service presents an excellent tool for centre management to assist stores who may be struggling with performance, and to further enhance businesses to maximise their turnover potential. I have always found Debra to be personable, professional and knowledgeable plus full of energy and enthusiasm for retail possibilities."

Marketing Manager
"Debra was very flexible in working with a number of the retailers at Stockland Caloundra. We first held a Visual Merchandising Workshop which received high participation, then one-on-one store consults with Debra. The feedback from the retailers is that they found Debra’s advice refreshing and relevant to their individual stores. I can’t wait to have her back!"

Rhyannon Preston
Stockland Marketing Manager
"I was fortunate to attend the 'workshop' at Anton's this week and although I am not a fan of these events, I owe Anton's a lot since the loss of my business in the floods and felt it was the right thing to do to support their events. However, I have to admit I was very impressed with the presentation and took away a few pointers from the evening so I thought it would be appropriate to send a email of thanks. The information shared this week certainly showed me a couple of areas I can have a go at fixing on my own."

Steve Rainbow - small business owner
"I worked with Debra over a three year period. This involved reviewing our business practices with regards to the running of the 750 square metre souvenir shop & F&B. The business had become static and needed a new lease of life with regards to product selection/deletion, merchandising and the need to grow sales. The expertise and experience that she provided made it possible to address all the critical aspects of the business, by providing the tools to succeed and assisting in the implementation of key strategies. Feedback in the form of one on one meetings, emails and quarterly reporting were an important part of this process. Our business saw very large sales growth in key areas: unit sales, revenue and profit margins and we have created the platform towards continued growth which resulted us achieving store of year! we are thrilled."

"I had the pleasure of working with Debra when I was the Marketing Manager at Calamvale Central Shopping Centre. Debra took the time to understand the project and develop a strategic plan. She ran workshops as well as worked one-on-one with the retailers and the improvement in sales reflected the quality of her work. Debra is a delight to work with, her positivity is infectious and the knowledge and advice that she provided was above and beyond expectations."

“Donald Buckley Photographic stores” have used Debra from Boom for the last 3 ½ years and during that time, she has been an enormous help in changing and improving our stores. We have been amazed at how her simple and straight forward ways of merchandising have had such positive results. Debra understands the needs to work within a budget and has given us great, cost-effective ways of making changes that don’t break the bank. The difference in sales was almost instant, and her positive and enthusiastic manner is contagious, even with the most resistant of staff. Actioning the changes Debra has suggested, resulted in a much huge increases to our bottom line as well as playing a significant part in two of our stores tying for the top honour of NZ Kodak Express Store of the Year. In today’s highly competitive retail marketplace, her ongoing willingness to offer advice after she has visited and positive feedback is very unique – anyone who has the opportunity of working with Debra should grab it with both hands – it could be the best retail move you will ever make!”
