Here’s a little glimpse into how we work: Summit → Roadmap → Results⁠

When we began working with Softies in March 2024, the brand was growing fast, but the systems behind it needed to catch up. We got inside the business, identified what was out of sync, and brought the leadership team together for the first Softies Summit to align priorities, timing + ownership.⁠

3 Summits later, that rhythm continues to support Softies’ growth.⁠

Let’s talk Faire.

This highlight is from a past Faire Office Hours with Lexie Robinson, who helped build Faire’s attribution model and knows firsthand how to make Faire work alongside rep groups, not against them. She breaks down attribution, marketplace customers, and what a successful Faire partnership can look like.

And if you missed the first course - Another one is on the books!

Meet Sara Lunt, founder of Curio Collab, with 20+ years of experience in the gift + apparel world.

We love Sara for her calm, methodical approach. She brings such a grounded, thoughtful perspective to the conversation, especially when it comes to building a product-based business, being a modern-day merchant, and what founders should realistically expect when they invest in systems and infrastructure rather than quick-hit growth tactics.
