THE CONSULTANCY KTCHN
Product decisions add up.
So do the consequences.
If building or scaling feels harder than it should, it's usually not the volume.
It's the structure.

Where I step in
I’m most useful when:
-
You're holding too many product decisions in your head and nothing is moving cleanly
-
The range feels scattered or overbuilt - styles are getting approved but the commercial logic isn't there
-
You're on your 4th sample round and the design still isn't confirmed
-
Brand vision isn't translating into product - what you're building doesn't reflect what you're selling
-
Your launch dates & timelines keep slipping and air freight has become a line item, not an exception
-
The range is expanding, but your margin is being eaten by reactive decision-making.
-
You're still the bottleneck on every decision and the team is waiting on you
This is the moment where effort increases but clarity doesn't.
That's where I come in.
What this work covers
This is where the product depth lives, across the full apparel development cycle.
-
Apparel product strategy and range architecture
-
Range planning and assortment logic for scaling collections
-
Brand positioning clarity - making sure your product range reflects a clear, consistent brand identity that gives customers a reason to choose you
-
Customer and consumer clarity - defining who the product is actually for, what they need, and whether your range is solving the right problem for the right person
-
Development processes, critical path, and launch readiness
-
Team structure, decision ownership, and hiring clarity
-
EU regulatory readiness and DPP compliance risk
Design direction and technical support are part of the work when they serve the strategy - not by default.
How brands work with me
This isn't freelance execution-for-hire.
It's senior product thinking - decision support, structure, and direction you can actually run with.
Most brands start with the Commercial Clarity Audit - a week-long diagnostic that identifies where the product system is breaking before the next production cycle locks in the cost.
From there, some founders implement the findings themselves.
Others continue with advisory support or a full consulting engagement.
The audit determines what comes next.
You don't have to decide that now.
