Joel created, fine-tuned and successfully implemented “Intelligent Merchandising”, while serving in executive management positions for large corporate entities, including Mikasa, Pimpernel USA, Movado, Synapse (a division of Time-Warner) and SG Footwear.
Joel spent over 20 years running divisions of the above, and proved that a manufacturer could significantly grow their business by improving sell thru’s at retail. “It is no secret that retailers struggle with execution on a daily basis. The manufacturers who can cost effectively improve sales will increase margin, limit markdown dollars and greatly increase their stature with the retailer”.
After achieving this goal one company at a time, Joel launched Revenue Creations in 2008, as a vehicle to leverage his sales knowledge to a multitude of firms across several industries. “We can now offer Intelligent Merchandising to multiple companies across many platforms. We manage our clients merchandising dollars and goals as if they were our own, because I once sat in their chair, and I understand the challenges they face on a daily basis. By quantifying the return on investment, we can “Intelligently Merchandise” for our clients and watch the increased sales pay for the marketing effort”.
In addition, Joel launched a division of Revenue Creations, Tech Universe at the same time. Joel has assembled a team of experienced and innovative marketers who have developed an extensive line of high quality computer accessories. Tech Universe delivers the quality of big brands like Logitech and Microsoft at entry level price points. The company maintains a domestic inventory with short lead times, and has over 30 SKU’s.
