Retail Mentorship Program

A confidence-building retail mentorship program for entrepreneurs ready to land major U.S. retail placement.

You're smart, driven… and totally stuck.

You have an incredible product and the passion to build a brand with mass appeal. But navigating the path from startup to big-box shelves feels impossible.

 

Right now, you're experiencing:

  • Confusion without a clear retail roadmap

  • Costly mistakes you can't afford to make

  • Self-doubt in meetings with buyers and investors

  • Stalled growth due to missing knowledge and connections

 

Most entrepreneurs never break through because they don’t know how to navigate the retail landscape.

You need a retail expert to show you the way.

With 30+ years working with major U.S. retailers, we can teach you how to:

Develop a Retail Strategy

Get battle-tested methods that have generated over $30M in retail placements/deals.

Avoid Rookie Mistakes

Our mentees typically save 6-12 months and tens of thousands in costly errors.

Build Confidence

Walk into any buyer meeting with the knowledge and talking points that get you taken seriously.

What truly sets RPS apart is their genuine commitment to the success of the brands it supports. Ann is honest, approachable, and consistently goes above and beyond to provide thoughtful, actionable advice.
