Morning everyone – I’m working with a small camera distributer who are looking to understand how to get a listing with a UK high street retailer such as Argos, John Lewis, Curry’s etc. Does anyone have or could recommend someone who could talk them through the process? They are looking to drive B2C sales. Thank you

Rebecca Saunders worked at both John Lewis AND Argos
Several others have retail links to John Lewis/ Currys/ other retail, including Maleka Dattu Scott McLaren Rod Brown Clare Winspear David Mosley Ash Roots Kim Bates
Can anyone help Nicola Hewitt ?

Happy to have a chat, not worked in electrical retail for a while, but have worked with John Lewis and have extensive experience in Grocery. Process tends to be broadly similar. Thanks Ben Legg for the suggestion.

Hi community!
I’m currently negotiating a contract with Amazon that involves IP licensing.
Anyone who is current/ex-Amazon with knowledge of their contracting process (not necessarily relating to IP specifically), or anyone with IP licensing experience more broadly, please can you message me?
Thank you all!

Hey everyone!
I’d love to get some support from the community for an upcoming Black History event that I’m running on the 5th October.
For context, I run a beauty booking platform that helps textured hair stylists manage their bookings and make sustainable, long-term wealth from their business (stylists are great creatives, but typically struggle with the ins and outs of running a business). The event will be in the same vein, helping stylists to gain a deeper understanding of business and community building.
We’re looking for headline sponsors at the moment and would love to get connected with
a) Some banks
b) Tech companies like Google, Canva, Adobe, which all have tools that stylists regularly use and play a key role in their business already
If anyone in the community has connections of sorts in these areas, I would love an intro. Also happy to send our events deck to you in advance so you can take a look and give me feedback on how to tweak it, too.

Thanks Ben Legg, I’m in contact with Akshaan.

Thanks @benlegg, somehow, I don’t seem to think of myself as a mentor. At least not to mentor entrepreneurs. I’m not sure my skillset is 100% aligned. But thanks for thinking of me!

My pleasure David Baxter – if you know of others suitable in the Bath area, feel free to let them know about it

Can you help me to shape my writing course?
Hi Everyone
I’m in the process of creating a course that will help portfolio professionals who struggle with the writing side of their job.
The course will help you go from: ‘Staring at a blank screen, not knowing where to start’ to ‘Writing with purpose, clarity and confidence – every time’.
And to help me shape the course content, I’d love to hear about your business writing challenges.
If you’d like to contribute, please answer these six questions by Monday 14 July. You can do it here, or message me directly if you’d prefer to keep things confidential.
1) What types of content do you usually write at work?
2) How do you feel about the writing side of your job?
3) What’s your biggest challenge when it comes to writing content?
4) How do you currently deal with this challenge?
5) Would any of the following be helpful to you? Write ‘yes’ next to the ones that would:
a) a framework…

Hi community! 👋 I’m Maxim, Head of Marketing at Simpler (https://www.simpler.so), we’re building Europe’s fastest, smoothest checkout for e-commerce.
We’re growing fast and need to level up our website to clearly and beautifully explain what we do. That means:
– Smart, reusable page templates
– Bold, clean illustrations that show how Simpler works and why it matters
I know this community is packed with top-notch designers – if you’re into turning complexity into clarity and working fast, let’s chat. This could also turn into a longer collaboration: we’re opening up more and more marketing channels in B2B, and great design is becoming central to how we scale.
DM me or comment if this sounds interesting. Let’s make Simpler look as sharp as it performs!
