Sources and scope
These are separately dated program results with different sales definitions, not a cumulative 2020–2025 total or revenue attributed solely to my work. The 2020 monthly and product gross-sales views reconcile; its exact cutoff comes from the export filename. The 2025 figures come from the CQ5 online report and the item-level Apollo sales report. Complete sales coverage for the intervening years has not been established.
My contribution
- Managed merchandise commerce, production, fulfillment and customer operations.
- Reviewed sales by product and collection to recommend assortment and restock decisions.
- Coordinated approved assortments, launch assets, live-event merchandise and settlement reporting.
Use the sales pattern to shape the next release
In a June 30, 2020 review sent to D-Nice, I highlighted the strength of the original logo and the demand for women’s v-necks in the Breathe collection. I recommended including women’s styles in future drops, counting available warehouse stock and using a limited Instagram restock to bring inventory back to the audience.
Coordinate before the announcement
For CQ After Dark, I shared the approved assortment with the partner team and counsel, coordinated a proposed five-day relaunch, and requested social assets ahead of the sale. My role connected the product decision to the people and operational details needed to deliver it.
Stay accountable through the venue handoff
For CQ5 at the Apollo in March 2025, I coordinated stock counts with the venue, traced a missing size run to its shipping box and reconciled the count before the show. I then handled the return-shipping coordination and settlement follow-up. The work continued through the operational details that affect both fans and the artist.
