visual merchandising workshop

IS your brand top of mind with your customers, do you stand out in the crowd of retail competition, is the presentation of your product reflective of the DNA of your brand?

With so much competition brought on by innovation in the online space and increasingly rapid changes in consumer mindset; it can be tough to stay ahead of the game in the traditional retail space and have your product talk to your consumer in a visual way that influences traffic, sales and loyalty.

In partnership with the Douglas Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Port Douglas and Daintree, Douglas Shire Council is hosting a workshop with Mon + Co Agency; a national visual merchandising agency led by Monique Haney who works with exclusive and premium brands such as Anaconda, Helly Hansen, Columbia, Mr Simple, Herschel with strong ties to leading department stores including David Jones.
