CHEZ JEAN
- Associate Founder
2010 - 2011
"Tailor-made suits and working shirts delivered at home at low prices”
The concept of the company was based on B2C sales experience mixed with personal experience in China. Whoever goes to Beijing or Shanghai enjoys making taylor-made working shirts, suits and even jackets for very low prices. Many internet companies offer this service online but most lack of aggressive american sales system.
So we decided to create a company that would fill in this gap, targeting companies and individuals directly at their office or directly in their social groups...
As an associate founder my two areas of responsibilities were:
• Define Marketing Strategy and supervision of implementation:
Brand name and image, website supervision, catalogue conception, graphic charter
Sales model and sales pitches
• Sourcing in China: identify and select the fabric suppliers and the manufacturers (Northern China)
