What actually makes a retailer want to carry your product? In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Gale, founder of Gale Studio, to talk about what it really takes to build a wholesale-ready brand that customers and buyers genuinely connect with, and why wholesale is about far more than simply getting products into stores. Rebecca shares how her experience working with luxury brands like David Yurman, Patek Philippe, and Piaget shaped the way she approaches branding, customer experience, storytelling, and wholesale relationships today.
