"You have been and should continue to be considered the premiere "go to place" for planogramming services, merchandising concepts, sales support materials, and your newly coined termed "MerchoGram" - the joining together of in-store merchandising with planogramming. You truly are a merchaneer!

With your assistance, Clorox was able to raise their position as the Category Manager for both the Appearance Car Care and Performance Chemical sections to a new level.

Thank you for all your hard work."

- Mark Behrendt
National Account Manager for Clorox Automotive



"Results like this mean that store owners can recover the cost of MerchoGramming very quickly.

The average sale per ticket has had a significant increase immediately."

- Lou Fishman
President of ABC Discount Auto Parts



"I wanted to drop you a quick note thanking you for all your help the past 3 years in developing planogram and display recommendations. Not only has your work been impactful and done with high quality, but the speed in which you turned around projects was especially impressive.

The Fred Meyer appearance planogram we completed this year was well accepted by the buyer, and as I have seen the actual planogram implemented, most of our suggestions were adopted.

Thanks again for your work."

- Rick Manoogian
National Account Manager for Clorox Automotive
