Most Founders Pitch their Product.

BUYERS WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THEIR CATEGORY


Here's how to give them what they're actually looking for - with a pitch that's built the way Category Managers think.

See How It Works

You've Built a Great Product, but getting ranged is a different game.

Many founders believe if their product is good enough, retailers will say yes.


But buyers aren't asking:

“Is this a great brand?”


They’re asking:

  • Will it grow my category?
  • Does it deserve shelf space?
  • Can this supplier execute?


This is why so many great products never make it onto shelf.


Not because the product isn’t good. Because the pitch isn’t commercially compelling.

YOUR GUIDE

I've been the Category Manager, the Buyer, and the Founder.

For 20 years I worked inside major FMCG companies - leading category strategy and shopper marketing for brands already on shelf. Then I became a Buyer. Then I started my own product business and had to pitch retailers myself.

That's the perspective I bring to your pitch. I know what a Category Manager puts in a ranging

Testimonial ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"As someone new to the industry and with limited FMCG experience, I worked with Tanya to help me communicate my business in the strongest possible way to potential buyers and retailers.


Tanya turned my concepts into a clear, compelling opportunity and product solution, expressed in the language buyers and the industry respond to. Along the way, she provided practical industry advice, shared valuable buyer insights, and highlighted the aspects that matter most in conversations with retailers.


As a result, I now have much greater clarity and confidence in how I approach these discussions. Since working with Tanya, I’ve landed several additional accounts, which I can confidently attribute to the clearer, more buyer-focused messaging we developed together.


I’d highly recommend Tanya to any founder looking to sharpen how they position and communicate their business and brand.  Tanya's experience not just as category buyer but also as business owner made a real difference for me and my business; it saved time, reduced second-guessing, and gave me confidence in the direction I was taking."
