During our first call, we will ask some questions about the project goals, audience, budget, timeline, and other essential details. Of course, we realize we will be discussing sensitive info, and we would be more than happy to sign an NDA if necessary, but our standard is to always treat all client conversations as confidential. Please feel free to contact other consultancies to compare their prices and brand approach. While many branding and luxury retail consulting firms work by the hour, we try to estimate the project cost as precisely as possible before we start. After the call, we may request various documentation such as a brief, project requirements, past reports, etc. Our proposal will include a detailed description of our brand approach, project phases, activities, deliverables, and relevant case studies.

What process should I expect from your retail consulting agency?

Our process is based on the design thinking methodology, which allows us to be flexible, adapting to almost any project type and collaboration model. Of course, each engagement is unique, but we always go through the following key phases:

Discovery & Research

We will also review competitor approaches, gather references, and document best practices.

Digital Strategy & Concepts
Based on the discovery & research results, we synthesize a digital strategy and define the approach to drive our process. Because we are a user experience agency at heart, we will explore different concepts to establish such core elements as information architecture, interactions, and future engagements.

How much does a retail consultant charge?

Most retail consulting firms charge an hourly fee for each engagement with the motive of making as much money from their clients as possible. At G & Co., we detest this model as it becomes easy for these retail consultancies to deceive their clients by falsifying the amount of hours they worked – ultimately causing the client to pay for work that was not actually performed. Instead, we price each engagement fairly depending on the scope of work for a particular engagement and agree on intermediate payout points throughout the project. By charging our clients in this way, the amount of money each engagement costs is negotiated up-front and our clients can rest assured that they are receiving quality retail consulting without being charged for additional work.
