Expert In Your Pocket
I created Expert In Your Pocket because so many founders worked with me on a strategy call and said "I need to find a way to keep working with you!".
​
It's perfect for founders who are largely self-sufficient, but want a senior advisor on hand to support with key decisions. ​
​​
You're probably at the stage where you're comfortable doing the work yourself, you just need someone experienced to sense check your thinking, flag any risks, and give you confidence you're not missing something important.
​
This is your fashion business - backed by an industry insider.
Expert In Your Pocket is a product, sourcing and sustainability advisory for founder-led fashion brands
This is not generic business coaching this is ongoing access to senior expertise and two decades of industry knowledge, at a fraction of the cost of a full-time hire.
​​​
This is for you if:
​
-
​You value senior input over guesswork
-
You're already trading or close to launch
-
You're confident doing the work but want expert validation
-
You have specific questions, not a need for someone to own tasks
-
You understand the real risk and cost involved with making mistakes​
​​
What you get:
​
-
Regular 90-minute strategy sessions (monthly or fortnightly, your choice). We review documents, pricing, supplier emails, costings and production timelines to make decisions together. You bring the questions, I'll support you with frameworks and strategies for you to implement with confidence.
​​
-
Email support and voice notes via Voxer for troubleshooting, sense checking and course correcting between calls.
​​
-
Access to templates, and tools that will save you time and support decision making. Plus access to my network of contacts.

Previous Founders say...
Natalie is such a lovely individual to work with. Professional whilst also being personable, helping ease some of the uncertainty and anxiety many of us founders feel
Nat explain things in a way that makes it feel manageable. It’s a security blanket knowing I can run things past her.
It just makes me feel settled.​
​​​I felt really supported by Natalie and know I could refer back to her should I need any further advice. 100% recommend - well worth the value!

Frequently Asked Questions
01.
Do I need to have a fashion brand already?
Expert In Your Pocket (EIYP) is best suited to founders who are close to launch or already launched. For pre-launch founders there is the option to apply for Start to Launch which is a hands-on launchpad for aspiring fashion founders.
02.
What topics can we cover?
We can cover product, pricing, production timelines, sustainable sourcing, improving margin, supplier relationships and more. Some typical questions founders come to me with are:
-
"Is this supplier quote reasonable?"
-
"Should I launch this new category or focus on existing products?"
-
"How should I structure my production timeline for next season?"
-
"What should I prioritise for sustainability?"​
03.
Can you reply to my suppliers for me?
EIYP is a strategic advisory so I do not get involved in the day to day running of your brand as part of the service. If your brand has been trading for 2 years and is VAT registered, you can apply for Start To Scale for hands-on support.
04.
Do you work with clients overseas?
Yes! EIYP is a remote service, I work with clients all over the world, just note that all costs are charged in GBP and our core business hours align with GMT/BST.
05.
Is there a pay monthly option for EIYP?
EIYP is designed for founders that need ongoing support so it is billed quarterly,
If you can't commit to 3 months support, you have the option of booking a founder strategy call as often as you need one.
06.
What if I'm not sure if I want to commit to 3 months?
If you start with a single founder strategy call then upgrade to Expert in Your Pocket within 7 days, I will credit the cost of your call towards your package.
