As a domestic or foreign Brand exhibiting at LFW (London Fashion Week) or PWF (Paris Fashion Week), you must have built the right foundations before you go there.
Do you remember rejecting a proposal, a product or just speaking to somebody because your first impression was negative?
Let's share a few top tips and a few mistakes we have seen this season when foreign Brands exhibit in Paris (hopefully it has and will not be your case)
• Not speaking a little French to break the ice with French Buyers
• Not having several price lists (different documents) to accommodate different Buyers from different regions
• Only having one currency (your own and not €, £, $ ...)
• Lookbook/line sheet not fine-tuned for the European market (or other regions – you can also possibly plan 2 different teaser lookbooks)
• Inappropriate shipping terms or payment terms
• …
So your next top tip is to ensure you prepare and you use ann expert to guide you.
Make sure you challenge the Expert as much as he/she challenges you.
Never buy blindly a solution. Understand the process and logic behind the action you must take.
For the rest and much more, give us a call. Our values of honesty and transparency are well appreciated by Brands and Buyers we work with every single week.
