Background

About Lindsey Morrison

Objective: To position myself within a retail focused company that allows me to contribute my past professional and educational experience to best support the brand while striving to meet and exceed expectations that allow me to grow within the company- Lindsey Morrison currently works as the Inside Sales Representative for a wholesale jewelry + accessory brand, managing over 50 accounts nationwide. Her role includes traveling to set up and represent the brand at trade shows and one-on-one store meetings, where she presents and merchandises the new collections using curated sample sets. Beyond sales, she provides customer support to accounts, ensuring smooth operations and long-term success. She also collaborates closely with the brand owner on product line development, sales strategy and merchandising, contributing to both customer growth and overall brand development. Prior to this position, Lindsey served as the wholesale rep for an independent multi-line rep at Maureen Shinners, L.L.C for 10 years. This company had contracts with roughly 15 different independent artists and jewelry brands. Lindsey's job role included traveling around the midwest territory, working one-on-one with the buyers showing the new collections of each brand. She also set up and worked trade shows and markets displaying the lines for each season. Lindsey graduated with a B.A. in Fashion Business at Columbia College Chicago in May 2013. She was awarded an academic scholarship with Columbia College and graduated with a 3.67 GPA. In addition to being a full-time student, she balanced two marketing concentrated internships with Retail Minded and Stella Blue Boutique. Her past internships gave her the experience in her field, plus giving her the opportunity to work under two different management styles while obtaining various responsibilities. The past internships have also strengthened her already impressive multi-tasking skills and time management, as well as making connections and networking. Because both businesses were small, including her current employers, Lindsey is more aware of the impact well-done marketing, advertising, promotion, and overall aesthetic has on a business.
