April, Anita and THE BOARD have been absolutely INSTRUMENTAL STRATEGIC PARTNERS to us over the past year in both EVOLVING and BRINGING OUR STRATEGY TO LIFE, as well as establishing our Beauty Global Collective.
Their deep industry-leading expertise, flexible approach, honesty and intelligence helped guide us and cut through the noise and also reinforce our intuition - all with grace and good humor. We very much hope to continue partnering with them and wish them much luck as they expand their meaningful business.
Holli Rogers, Chief Financial Officer FARFETCH

Working with THE BOARD exceeded our expectations in every way. The team they assembled had an outstanding range of industry experience. It was so great to work with a group of consultants with operational experience and expertise.

They were SMART, EFFICIENT, PRODUCTIVE, CREATIVE and AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO GET TO KNOW. We would recommend THE BOARD without hesitation.
Jim Gold, Chief Executive Officer, MODA + April Henning, Chief Merchandising Officer, MODA

Working with Anita, April, and THE BOARD was a dream and we were thrilled with how our first pop-up experience turned out!  Tapping into their network of experts, they completely turn key everything for us from design, to merchandising, to staffing and operationally running our store.  From day 1 they fully understood our vision and incorporated all our ideas along the way.  They are true partners whose expertise, hustle and heart made it all possible.
Zoe Fairbourn, Head of Brand Partnerships Hello Sunshine Cynthia Rupeka, SVP of Reese’s Book Club

 THE BOARD was integral in HELPING ME TO IDENTIFY WHAT AND WHO I NEEDED to grow my small business. When I approached April, I was incredibly overwhelmed by the challenges that lay ahead, but she quickly figured out the missing piece of my business puzzle and distilled precisely what I needed to do, how I should do it, and who I needed to hire.

She introduced me to my now CFO and advisor who has been INSTRUMENTAL IN THE EXPANSION of my business. Thanks to April and THE BOARD’s guidance, I’ve been able to hone my vision to establish the foundation and see the white space for future growth. Now everything feels focused and aligned. It is incredible how a single person (or the right single person) can set you on your way. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to lean on April and her team as I navigate this next phase.

— Athena Calderone, Author, Designer, Creative Director + Founder, Eyeswoon

THE BOARD has been and continues to be such an indispensable resource for our quickly-evolving business. I came to April without even having clarity of the gaps we needed to fill in our business in order to scale; I just knew I needed help. She was quickly able to ISOLATE MY CONCERNS AND CONNECT ME with an invaluable partner in Lauren Letta, who has been so critical to our business operations.

The wisdom, guidance and experience THE BOARD has offered our business has REFOCUSED OUR VISION and set us up with the foundation we need to operate at scale.  I am grateful to have the opportunity to continue to lean on April, Anita and THE BOARD as we grow our business and navigate a constantly-changing retail landscape.

What I love about working with THE BOARD is that not only are they INCREDIBLY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EXPERIENCED, they unreservedly bring that all to the table. It’s so refreshing to be able to WHOLEHEARTEDLY TRUST EXTERNAL EXPERTISE. They are incredibly well-connected, do what they say they will, and have a ‘HUSTLE’ MINDSET they bring to absolutely everything they touch. They not only stick to their promises, but over-deliver substantially.

— Jaimee Lupton, Co-Founder, MONDAY HAIRCARE

THE BOARD connected us to HIGHLY EXPERIENCED AND SEASONED EXPERTS who we embedded into our time. They provided the perfect balance of objective analysis and personalized insights to allow us to proceed with confidence. As a small company, this was a big investment, but we knew that having the right strategy would set us up for success, and we never could have hired this team in-house at our stage. They brought a high level of professionalism, empathy and strategy and always listened intently to our concerns. Most importantly, they GAVE US THE TOOLS AND THE TRAINING TO EXECUTE THE STRATEGY OURSELVES.

— Megan Roup, Founder, The Sculpt Society + Morgan Humphrey, CEO, The Sculpt Society

As a young brand it’s never easy to outsource your vision as it is so pure and unadulterated. From my first conversation with April and then Kathryn I understood our vision was clearly seen and deeply understood. To feel that is life-affirming. Once we set that foundation together everything clicked into place and we immediately felt we were a team. THE BOARD are not “guns for hire”, they are deeply knowledgeable, industry savvy guides that will support the goals for your brand and show you step-by-step how to achieve and exceed them. They are a much-needed ballast in the chaotic waters of building a relevant and successful company.
