What We Offer

The goal is straightforward: the right product, in the right place, at the right time, quantity, and price. Building the processes to get there consistently? That's where we come in.

Outside Advice offers customized go-to-market and S&OP processes designed to meet your team where they are — within your budget and resource plan.

  • From product briefing to go-to-market strategy, our team can help guide your long term roadmap.

    This process begins with a current line assessment and can include the following:

    • Market Opportunity Analysis

    • Line Rationalization

    • Product Briefing Process

    • Regulatory Landscape Analysis

    This is our most robust offering and is best for companies coming out of start-up and looking to scale their portfolio.

  • A line assessment is a great way to get an outside perspective on the overall health of your product portfolio.

    This in-depth analysis includes:

    • 360degree Pareto Analyses

    • Product Segmentation

    • Channel distribution rate report

    • Line Health Report

    • Rationalization Recommendation

    This can also be done as a workshop with your team

  • Every thriving organization has a heartbeat — a shared rhythm that keeps product, sales, planning, finance, and marketing moving in sync.

    We help you build it. By designing an annual calendar of critical milestones, your teams gain the predictability they need to plan ahead, collaborate with confidence, and spend less time putting out fires, and more time doing their best work.

  • Merchandising is not a full time role in every organization. Sometimes, this roll can be implemented seasonally in order to create seasonal plans for sales and retail teams. If you need short term help with regional or channel assortments, we are happy to help. Service is provided on a project based contract with clear timelines and deliverables to ensure alignment with your calendar.

  • If your business is looking to enter the EU market, but unsure the best entry and how to gain traction, our team can help.

    Our offer starts, but is not limited to:

    • Market entry analysis

    • Distribution strategy recommendation

    • Price and positioning strategy

    • Introductions to key partners

  • If you are looking for someone knowledgeable in the outdoor and cycling industries to host your event, panel discussion or retailer summit, we are able to find people suited for this job. Fill out the contact form and give us the details and we can offer you a service quote.
