Some kind words from Walter Pye, a fellow retailer and Founder, President/CEO of Pinto Ranch Western Stores located in Houston, Dallas, Las Vegas and at Houston International Airport
November 20th, 2013
Milton is a MAJOR-League retailer . . . hands-on . . . experienced . . . he's done it, dug out . . . fought it and won MOST ALL of it! . . . Smartest retailer I know and has great horse and street sense . . . the 100% field of and feel for retail.
Worst problem is that too ofen , clients DON'T believe him when he says what to do and what's going to happen. His formula and well-organized system, formula and matrix DOES work and will work. Milton knows what works and what doesn't work in a store closing.
Once signed up, his clients need to execute Milton's plan and GET OUT OF HIS WAY!!
Let him work his magic.
Other consultants use one front, or silly contests or prizes.
Milton preserves the client's reputation and image while driving to make that client the $$$$ needed for the event's needed results.
He's been the CEO, the CFO, the Off Price Merchandise Manager . . . he sees all sides. . . he is the whole package of promo, ad, signage, OTB, visual, and content. He never stops studying and perfecting his craft.
Milton can ALWAYS see "around the corner and down the road" . . . he has been wherever the client hasn't yet!
THREE recommendations to Milton's prospective clients:
1. Let him at LEAST look at your store, your numbers and let him do his analysis at the very least . . . it's worth his retainer, by itself.
2. TRUST his judgment if you hire him . . . he does what he does . . . you've been doing what YOU do. He is wickedly organized and VERY serious about making you $$$$: He is a global resource in his retail study.
