Name: Kathleen Ruiz Business Name: KRW Consulting Location: New York ,United States Establishment (Year): 2017 Category/Industry: Advertising & Marketing Profession/ Specialty: Marketing Website: www.krwconsultingnyc.com Social Media: LinkedIn | Instagram Company Detail: Founded by luxury marketing and branding expert Kathleen Ruiz, KRW Consulting is a boutique marketing agency specializing in strategic brand partnerships and experiential marketing, particularly in the fashion and retail industries. In 2023, Kathleen formed an event production division, KRW Productions, providing global event strategy and management. Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage: Kathleen has kept her team lean, with a group of experts that have been with her for more than a decade, since her days at Neiman Marcus and Saks, a testament to her ability to mentor and inspire others. Outside of her core team she has a group of industry leaders that she brings in as needed for various client projects. This allows her to keep a small core group but also ensure that her clients get the very best results because the team is tailored specifically to the client and their objectives. This is what differentiates KRW Consulting from the rest. World class marketing experience with one-on-one service and impeccable attention to detail. Challenges Faced During the Journey: Kathleen, like many early executives and entrepreneurs, struggled from early self-doubt, as well as a business education deficit. While her peers all had college degrees, she did not have the same luxury. This, above all else, became one of her largest differentiators — as her work ethic far outpaced others in her quest for corporate learning. For this reason, she became more familiar working out of bounds than she did within the confines of any single role, learning more from the school of the hard knocks than a university-setting could ever teach her. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Starting an agency was never something Kathleen dreamed of but she often felt stifled by the corporate red tape and bureaucratic processes she juggled on a daily basis during her time at Neiman Marcus, Saks and Hudson's Bay. It’s not an exaggeration to say that Kathleen was leading the charge on some of the most impressive campaigns at Saks and Hudson's Bay. Her success was clear but as anyone knows who works “for the man” there is only so far you can take something that you don’t own. Like many entrepreneurs, there’s an aha moment when one realizes, I can do this better! And that’s exactly what she did. Kathleen formed a company of her own. One where she would call the shots and partner with brands she was passionate about. It sounds so cliche but Kathleen always believes if you can dream it you can do it and if you are passionate about it, you will succeed. Don't let the small stuff weigh you down. If you want it badly enough, you will find a way.

Name: Vanessa Shepherd Business Name: Vanessa Shepherd Location: St. Albert, Canada Establishment (Year): 2018 Category/Industry: Business Services Profession/ Specialty: Business Growth Strategist / Marketing Website: www.vanessashepherd.com Social Media: LinkedIn Company Detail: I help brands/companies tap into strategies and insight they don't have on their team. Company marketing teams are often very overwhelmed and caught up in the day to day, so they don't have time to stay on top of what's new or changing in marketing, especially digital marketing and e-commerce/online services. I step in to provide my insight and expertise, training, and ongoing Q&A access to tap into when they need it. It's like having a marketing expert on speed dial to solve problems they can't solve (or don't have time to solve). Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage: I help individuals accomplish business growth through simple marketing and operations strategies in a way that's sustainable for them and scalable up or down as needed. By simplifying and drawing in more consistency, they're able to attain results that feel massive to them. They also achieve more clarity, context and move through overcoming imposter syndrome and/or self-doubt. A lot of service providers and consultants prescribe one way of doing things, while I work with my clients to find an approach that truly works for them and their unique situation and goals. Challenges Faced During the Journey: To get where I am now I had to get out of poverty and move into the middle class, deal with a cancer diagnosis, go through an eating disorder treatment program, and battle the obstacles that came with obtaining a university degree while paying down medical debt and juggling a full time job and family commitments. There were also times when I tried to secure funding for my business and was told I'd need a husband or male partner to get one, or where I was told women weren't capable in business and that I'd never make it long-term as a business owner. Life has thrown a lot at me over the years, but with grit and determination (and the emotional support of others) I've been able to defy those odds that say I shouldn't be where I am today. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: If you're told that you can't do something ask why not. There are so many biases out there toward women and so much societal conditioning that limits our ability in some cases to achieve the big dreams we know are possible for us to achieve. Get curious, ask questions and find a way that works for you instead of aiming to make everyone else comfortable. Your dreams are unique, and you deserve to achieve them!

Stephanie has been successfully running this organization for almost 10 years now. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Stephanie often speaks about the power of resilience. "Resilience is not just bouncing back; it's rising stronger, wiser, and more determined than ever before." - Stephanie Olson

Name: Keisha Greaves Business Name: Girls Chronically Rock Location: Cambridge,USA Establishment (Year): 2017 Category/Industry: Manufacturing and Retail Profession/ Specialty: Fashion Designer Website: https://girlschronicallyrock.com Social Media: Instagram Company Detail: Girls Chronically Rock is a fashion brand for the disability community. The word "chronic" in its name is a reference to people living with chronic illnesses. The fashion line is a collection of apparel items for people living with disability with clothing specially designed for men and women. The company's mission is to create, motivate, encourage, inspire, and let people know that you rock and can accomplish anything you put your mind to. GCR ADAPTIVE PROJECT is on a mission to let people know that even chronic illness cannot stop them. You can be chronically ill and awesome. It is not enough to say this to people. We must get them to feel amazing. Achieving that in the disability community involves understanding their peculiarities, their needs, their challenges, and their worries. Being a member of the community herself and someone living with chronic illness, Keisha Greaves, founder of Girls Chronically Rock understands that much of this has to do with getting dressed in ease each day. With the Girls Chronically Rock Adaptive Project, Keisha aims to make men and women with disability feel more confident. Through clothing specially made for them, they would understand that they rock but beyond that they would feel that awesomeness because now they do not have to worry about appearing different in the larger society. The Girls Chronically Rock Adaptive fashion line would make adaptive clothing more accessible and popular in mainstream fashion. Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage: I was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy at age 24. Back then, I had never thought of how the lives of people living with chronic illnesses felt. I was a fashion student at the time of my diagnosis, and I lived and breathe fashion. The opportunity to learn about adaptive fashion was not there because no one was thinking in that direction. Living with Muscular Dystrophy changed my life and I have incorporated my story of surviving and living with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy into my fashion brand. I have made it a point to pass the message that Girls Chronically Rock. My fashion brand is currently a t-shirt line that has given inspiration to many people within the disability community. We are spreading the message of strength and the unique beauty of every individual including those living with chronic illnesses. Being a Muscular Dystrophy warrior myself, I understand first-hand what members of the disability community are going through especially when it comes to getting dressed every day. Adaptive Fashion is a necessity and until it gets into mainstream fashion and in stores, and people within the disability community would continue to feel discomfort and a sense of exclusion from fashion and life. Therefore, Girls Chronically Rock is working on her own adaptive clothing line to create adaptive clothing of all types for people who have muscular dystrophy and other disabilities. The company is also teaching current fashion students about adaptive fashion. We are trying to add our voice to the fashion worries of wheelchair users and other members of the disability community. Girls Chronically Rock is telling the story of this need from a personal perspective. We understand the urgency attached to not feeling stuck while trying to get dressed. We have entered partnerships to bring this voice to the table. We are currently collaborating with Framingham State University to teach fashion students in the fashion department about adaptive fashion. Achieving the results that would change the clothing game for the Muscular Dystrophy community require concerted and intensified efforts of everyone. The more people who make adaptive clothing available, the easier to access and the more fashionable they would be. But there is a challenge. Funding the adaptive fashion project is a major hurdle. Creating designs that work for every member of our community and getting these designs into the market especially in stores is a feat that is comprehensive and capital intensive. Getting the Girls Chronically Rock adaptive line to people who need it will create a critical change in fashion and a much-needed impact on an individual level for everyone who lives with disability. Challenges Faced During the Journey: For someone who sits on a wheelchair all day or someone who wears braces, slipping buttons in place and maneuvering zippers can be a hassle. Finding the right size of pants or jeans that accommodate their peculiarities can also be impossible. As a result, getting dressed in the morning is not quite the thrill for these people. More than that, clothing impairs the confidence of people with disabilities when it looks and feels different from what others wear. The current challenge is that adaptive clothing is not accessible to everyone. Not all stores carry this kind of clothing and many of the ones who do operate wholly online making the process of shopping for clothes tedious. Adaptive fashion needs to get into more stores, be more up to date, and more diverse so that people with disabilities have a variety of choices and many stores where they can obtain their clothing. They should not have to resign to whatever they find but should be able to choose what they want and wear what they love. At the same time, the designs should give them an instant boost of confidence that makes them feel included. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Never give up! If you have an idea or something you want to accomplish, connect with other entrepreneurs, join different business groups in Facebook and network. Before you know it, your business idea will be up and running.

Name: Tiffany Holland Business Name: Consiglieri Location: Mercer Island, USA Establishment (Year): 2021 Category/Industry: Advertising & Marketing Profession/ Specialty: Marketing Website: https://www.consiglieri.co/ Social Media: LinkedIn Company Detail: Consiglieri is a collection of former marketing executives from successful brands & agencies who give honest, actionable counsel for marketing leaders who want to modernize their operations and deliver more impactful work. We are the trusted advisors for today's (and tomorrow’s) top companies. We operate as an extension of leadership teams, connecting marketing and media experts with today’s top creative talent. We collaborate with the decision-makers and cross-functional working teams to modernize marketing operations, build social marketing infrastructure, drive efficiency of content creation, and optimize their partnerships and outputs. Unique Selling Proposition or Competitive Advantage: We do our clients’ night jobs. Many leaders find that despite a desire to come in and evolve the way things are being done for instant impact, the actual job gets in the way of real change. Consiglieri works in synergy with leaders to push their initiatives forward. From the operations, processes, editorial, planning, decks, assessments, and org and agency models, we offer real time strategy and counsel that allows brands to change the work for the better. Challenges Faced During the Journey: Digital marketing transformation was not my specialty in 2014, but it quickly became my passion over the course of the next 10 years. It started when I was tapped to lead a marketing transformation effort at a major retailer in 2014-2016 and top telecommunications company in 2017-2019. Both organizations were looking to find more innovative, creative ways to reach new consumers without increasing the overall marketing budget. In both scenarios, I found myself making the case to evolve the marketing process, approach and budget allocations from a fully traditional marketing approach to a modern model rooted in integrated social content and brand activations. I worked with an internal strategy team to model the benefits and run multi-variant tests to prove the approach would work, but it was still difficult to change the minds of the business leaders. Tothem, change equals risk to their business. Business was thriving for both companies and so there wasn’t a pressing need to make any systemic changes to how they operated. It was this challenge that made me realize the business case wasn’t the problem. I needed three things in order to succeed. First, I needed a strong executive sponsor to help poke holes in my approach and serve as a vote of confidence in the room when presenting recommendations. I then needed some outside perspective to validate the recommended approach was indeed how top brands were evolving. Finally, I needed a bigger burning platform to set up my solution. Savings and growth was not enough. To turn a big ship, you need the fear of an existential threat of becoming a relic to really get their attention and ensure the change is worth the effort. This was all real world experience that no one told me I would face, but was critical to my growth as a marketer and a business executive. Seeing how big companies struggle to keep up with the evolving consumer needs and marketing/media tech and measurement strategies also became the foundation for why I founded Consiglieri. Together with my co-founders, we’ve experienced the same issues across our brand and agency careers and figured many other global brands could use this same honest counsel to help them evolve quickly and effectively.Through our daily work partnering with clients, we not only find solutions to their current challenges, we work with them to evolve modern marketing for the future. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Go for it! (or stick with it if you are already doing it). Women don’t usually have the loudest voices in the room, but are able to champion multiple perspectives in their problem solving. For instance, when faced with a challenge they will find a solution that solves the problem and do it in a way that is good for business AND employees AND the customer. This win-win-win approach creates a multiplying effect on the value they provide across industries. The problem is this multiplying effect isn’t always acknowledged or rewarded by most companies. As an entrepreneur, you have full control in selecting how you invest your time and the value you put on the products/solutions you offer.

We’re also dedicated to building a long-term relationship with customers as partners in success. We don’t believe in a one size fits all model and we ensure that we are focused on high retention with both our team and our clients. Challenges Faced During the Journey: I had a hostile takeover of my first company by my ex-partners. We fought through a tremendous litigation, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in a year’s time, but I prevailed. Although I used most of our life savings to start a second company, I was able to pay it all back and then some when the lawsuit was over. The entire situation was a blessing in disguise because I was able to build a second company that was twice as big in half the time, without partners holding me back. 30 of the employees from company 1 came with me, and five years later, many of them are still with us. Advice for Women Entrepreneurs: Yes, lots! First, be careful what you put into writing. Always know that things can come back to bite you later. Also, be strong and stand up for yourself. Don’t let anyone push you around. Be confident and believe in yourself. Power through and persevere, and don’t let anyone tell you ‘you can’t’. I think it is also important to be willing to take risks. If it was easy and riskless, everyone would do it. Lastly, it's crucial to hire the right people, treat them well and then trust them to do their job. Delegate as much as humanly possible.

Challenges Faced During the Journey: Working in the UK presented its fair share of obstacles, but with unwavering determination and consistent performance, one could soar above them. However, let's not pretend that the concept of a "glass ceiling" doesn't exist. Since venturing into Spain and taking charge of her own company, the challenges have amplified, like a symphony reaching its crescendo. From female clients who still assume a male leader will enventualy turn up and provide re-assurance, to colleagues who believe a significant other is the key to success.

These superpowers, combined with effective leadership, will catapult you and your team to success. And guess what? You don't have to lead like anyone else. This is your time to shine and do things your way. Remember, the "how" often matters more than the "what"! Wishing you all the luck in the world. Go get 'em!
