    The first step to a successful fashion line

    Syama is incredibly knowledgeable about the industry and always stays on top of the latest information. She helped me get my fashion brand up and running in record time, and prevented me from making many mistakes. If you are starting your own line, or want to take an existing brand to the next level, Syama should be your first stop.

    A Super Smart Investment

    Syama is awesome! I am the sole designer and creator of an organic streetwear fashion brand. However, having zero fashion experience, little money, and in pre-launch mode, I was building my brand without an overall plan (like driving without a map). From the start, Syama got straight to the heart of the matter to understand the core components of what I’m trying to achieve, then build my plan out from there, the right way. It’s super helpful to get to unload my avalanche of ideas on Syama and then filter them together in order to refine the brand vision. In general, there’s a lot of info and feedback to absorb, plus actions to take, so she definitely keeps me on my toes, which is great and challenging. It’s also comforting to feel like there are no stupid questions around her, since I have plenty. Best thing is the sessions can be recorded, so I always discover new gems of advice every time I re-listen to them. Ultimately, I think Scaling Retail is a super smart investment in the future of anyone's company, and Syama is an awesome asset and friend to have on your side.
