Hi There!

I'm Tarnia

Most people who advise on retail have only sat in one seat.

Okay. Maybe two.

...But I've sat in all of them.

Maker. Buyer. Store owner. Distributor. Supplier. Operations lead. Developer. Marketer. I've been in the backroom and in the boardroom. I've been on the product side trying to get onto shelves, and on the retail side deciding which products earned their place and which quietly disappeared. I've stood there arranging and re-arranging products wondering where the customers are. I've been the one up until wee hours of the night taking and packing orders.

I've lived every angle of this industry.

Which means when something isn't working, I'm not guessing. I recognise it. Because I've been there, from all sides of the equation.

For Food Brands & Packaged Goods Creators

If you’re creating a physical product and exploring retail or wholesale pathways, clarity here matters more than speed.

Retail buyers aren’t mysterious, (okay - some are!) But they are ruthless with their time.
If your product isn’t signalling “ready” fast enough, it gets passed over.

I work with food and product brands to understand what retail buyers are actually looking for, and whether your product is communicating that clearly.

See if your product is genuinely retail-ready (from compliance and labelling expectations to how it presents off the shelf and in a buyer’s hands)
Understand what buyers need to say yes, and what’s quietly causing hesitation
Clarify your pricing, margins, and wholesale setup before you pitch
Identify the right retail and distribution pathway for your product (not all pathways are created equal)
Avoid expensive rookie mistakes that burn time, confidence, and cash

Let's make sure the right things are clear, credible, and UNMISSABLE to the people who matter.

Retail isn’t about convincing buyers,
it’s about removing the reasons they hesitate.

If customers can’t tell why you’re different.. they’ll default to familiar.

For Specialty Retailers Ready to Grow

Growing a retail business isn’t about doing more, it’s about making better decisions under ever changing real-world constraints.

I help independent retailers strengthen performance, improve commercial clarity, and compete confidently without copying bigger players.

I spot the blind spots that stop people from buying, returning, or talking about you. But we can change that by;

Identify where operations, stock, or staffing are quietly creating friction
Understand why customers browse… but don’t always buy
Get clear on the stock mix that supports sales and cashflow (without drowning in dead stock)
Make your store, offer, and experience more intentional, so you’re chosen, remembered, and talked about

This isn’t about working harder or shouting louder.

It’s about removing the noise, strengthening the signals, and making your business Unmissable for the right customer.

Morning Tarnia, I want to thank you for all your support for helping us grow over the last couple of years. What can I say except 'right back at you', ditto. It is always rewarding to work with people like yourself, esppecially another women. "to accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream. Not only plan but also believe."
