Marc Beerling

" I’ve found nothing more rewarding in my career than helping retailers uncover what they don’t know... ".

Marc has been immersed in the world of retail for nearly 25 years. His passion for selling, customer service, and all things retail began early - helping out at a family friend’s workwear store during evenings and weekends as a teenager. From merchandising to receiving and cleaning, those formative experiences laid the groundwork for what would become a lifelong career.

After graduating from college, Marc opened his own Men’s and Ladies fashion and denim store in 2003. Over the next 13 years, he expanded into a wide range of apparel categories including Men’s and Women’s Contemporary, Fashion Denim, Activewear, Footwear, and Action Sports. This hands-on experience gave him a deep understanding of what it takes to operate a successful retail business across multiple verticals.

In the years following the 2008 financial crisis, Marc gained a critical understanding of the importance of strategic inventory planning, accurate sales forecasting, and strong business coaching. That knowledge became the foundation for the next phase of his career. Since early 2016, Marc has dedicated himself to helping other retailers succeed. In late 2016, he sold his store to focus full time on consulting, bringing his experience, analytical mindset, and creative problem-solving skills to a wide range of clients. Today, he specializes in working with Fashion Boutiques, Action Sports Stores, Shoe Stores, and Contemporary Menswear, Kids apparel, Toy Stores and Pet Stores.

Marc is known for his ability to uncover opportunities where others see challenges, and he’s passionate about helping business owners gain clarity, build smarter strategies, and drive measurable growth. 

“I’ve found nothing more rewarding in my career than helping retailers uncover what they don’t know. One of my favorite quotes is from Peter Drucker: ‘You can’t manage what you can’t measure.’ It’s a daily reminder to stay curious, be strategic, and always keep learning.”
