You’ve built your brand online. Now you’re ready for shelves. I’ll show you how to go from DTC to dream retailers like Nordstrom, Target, and CVS—without wasting years figuring it out alone.
Our Services
You’ve built something from scratch. You’ve made sales on TikTok, connected with real customers, and proved your product has legs. But retail? That’s a different world.
Here’s what no one tells you:
Retail buyers don’t just “discover” you. They need to feel your product, see where it lives on their shelves, and understand why it’ll fly off them.
That’s where I come in.
With over 62,000 retail doors opened—and 40+ brands placed nationwide—I teach you how to show up like a top-tier brand, pitch like a pro, and close deals like a CEO.
Because retail isn’t luck. It’s strategy. And you’re ready.
I’m Michelle Manningham, Retail Strategist, Deal Closer, and the Founder of Pink & Associates. I’ve helped over 40 brands secure placement in 62,000+ retail doors… and I’m just getting started.
From selling direct-to-consumer on TikTok to dominating shelf space at trade shows—I teach you how to go from founder to force in the retail world.
Because your brand deserves to be seen. To be sold. And to scale. Let’s make that happen, together.
