"I've worked with Margo Kopman for ten years, and in that time we've doubled my sales volume twice and increased my margins by six points. But the numbers only tell part of the story. Margot is one of my most trusted and most loved advisors. She's gone above and beyond for me at every turn, and she cares about my business like it's her own. That kind of partnership is rare, and I don't take it for granted."

Founder & CEO, Skirt
"Lenore has felt like a true partner in building this. No question is too small, her expertise is always spot on. She approaches everything with a steady hand and invaluable knowledge.
I am growing at a rate I never could have imagined and there is no way I would be able to keep up if it weren't for Project Retail. They are the advisor, mentor, and safety net everyone deserves in life. Opening a business is one of the scariest things you can do but with Project Retail in my corner, it made me feel like I was in the best of hands."

If you don't measure it, you can't improve it
"The best decision I've ever made! I've worked with project retail from the beginning and I attribute a lot of my success to that decision. I was 22 and looking for guidance. I wanted someone with experience to guide me through the process. I pay them to be my 'boss' and it's amazing!
I can’t choose one thing that’s been the most valuable, because the answer is 'everything.' I get so much from my consultant. I can ask her almost anything business related and she has an answer for me or someone to reach out to."

"What made Project Retail feel like the right choice was their genuine understanding of the retail business and the challenges retailers face every day. From the beginning, their approach felt practical, personal, and tailored to our business rather than one-size-fits-all. We felt they truly listened, understood where we needed help, and could give us the structure and guidance we were looking for. Most importantly, there was a level of trust from the start, we felt like they wanted to be a partner in our success, not simply a consultant.
Their knowledge, guidance, and accountability have helped us make smarter decisions and stay focused on the areas that have the greatest impact. They don’t just give us numbers — they help us understand what those numbers mean and how to use them to improve our buying, inventory, and overall performance."

Your Most Valuable Customer is the One You Already Have, Not the One You Aspire to Reach
"Joining Project Retail was the best business decision I have ever made! For almost four years, I was flying ‘blind.’ My POS system gave me no real inventory control or customer database to work from.
Alex walked me through transitioning to a new POS system, and now I have complete control of my inventory, access to valuable customer data, and a loyalty program that keeps me connected with my customers. Being able to see the history of my inventory as well as my customers’ shopping history has been invaluable to my business.
My weekly meetings with Alex keep me on track, help me plan ahead, and give me confidence in the decisions I’m making. I cannot express how much working with Project Retail has helped me and my business."

"I came to Project Retail for growth, fewer markdowns, and insight into franchising. Working with Margo has increased our bottom line and helped us better curate the right product mix.
Project Retail takes away the guesswork and has been so helpful with the side of the business that I do not enjoy, which is numbers! They’ve relieved some stress and added work from my to-do list so I can focus on what I enjoy most: working with my customers."

Markdowns are Your Friend, Not Your Enemy
"Working with Margo has given me better inventory control and more awareness of my business. She provides an in-depth look at my business, and different perspectives on managing inventory and improving profitability."
Bruce Levitt

Lynbrook, NY
"Working with Project Retail is like having a head buyer armed with lots of important statistics! I really appreciate Margo’s perspective, and the fact that she won't back down when I push back on a recommendation. This turned out to be a perfect fit. I feel more hands on with the buying now."

Love What
You Do
"Working with Project Retail has been the best decision we’ve made for our small business. In just a year's time our sales increased by 34%. We’re now in our eleventh year, and we always tell people we wouldn’t still be in business if it weren’t for Natalie. We have a calculated monthly plan that helps us make strategic decisions based on inventory and previous sales. I love having the monthly retail budget so we don’t overspend. It’s kind of like a third eye making sure you don’t make bad choices.
We no longer purchase items aimlessly or hold on to stock that isn’t profitable.
Natalie’s knowledge and expertise takes the guesswork out of ordering. But she’s also incredibly easy to work with and feels more like a close friend than a hired consultant. We are forever grateful!"
