Description

ARE YOU A FEMALE CREATIVE WHO’S READY TO TAKE YOUR LUXURY DESIGN, FASHION, OR LIFESTYLE BUSINESS TO THE NEXT LEVEL?

Have you ever imagined your brand being in a premium location with thousands of dollars and potential customers walking into your shop daily, but can’t quite afford the massive overhead costs of being positioned in a high-end luxury mall?

Are you a designer who has your brand polished and shiny, but could use some help getting your product in front of your dream clientele?

The Gild is a brand new retail, education, and pop-up concept that was created specifically to help you overcome these and other obstacles that we as female creatives face in a fast paced and ever changing retail environment.

Breaking through that glass ceiling to enter into an exclusive, top-tier luxury market, can be daunting and almost impossible for smaller artisan businesses, even for those who have an incredible product.

When you join The Gild, you’re not just opening another shop where you have to go it alone. You’re being welcomed into a group of successful, driven, women who genuinely care about your success and the success of others.

The Gild is all about helping women get ahead and we do that not only through classes and workshops, but also through organizing and participating in community outreach and donating a portion of proceeds to worthwhile causes that address important issues that affect women.

THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE BENEFITS YOU’LL RECEIVE BY JOINING THE GILD:

* The opportunity to sell in a top-tier, luxury retail market, with heavy foot traffic and proven financial success, at a non-prohibitive cost.

* No additional effort or cost to organize sales help, PR, or press.

* Free access to supplemental business and design classes that cover topics like how to take your brand to market or design a stunning website.

* The ability to hold in store, paid workshops, boosting the visibility of your brand.

* The opportunity to be grandfathered in to the initial price structure.
