“I consulted with Lyn and Retailworks shortly after acquiring the family business. The store and the brand needed a refresh and Lyn was critical during the development phase to breath new life into a small family store. The results were nothing short of phenomenal. We doubled the income of the store in just over three years and continue in double digit growth every year. The investment in her expertise is worth every penny and will be returned in profits for years to come.”

“We have received more compliments on this store that your team designed for us than on the last six ones [that others] put together [for us]…we were up almost 40% in both January and February and continue to get new customers and compliments daily. Your suggestions for the outside of the store were priceless.”

“I was impressed with [Lyn’s]…knowledge and felt confident in her abilities. Then, when I met her one-on-one it took care of any concerns I might have had. The whole process was easy. In fact, my contractors said [Retailworks’]…plans were easy to work with and nothing was missed. They were impressed. My feedback so far from the customers is very exciting…a lot of ‘wow’s…They’ve been really pleased. [M]y vendor reps marvel at our store. Their comments are: ‘This is beautiful; unlike any other shoe stores around.’ Business is good; October was way up, over 30%…[Retailworks was]…able to capture exactly what I was looking for. So thank you so much for the design. It is exactly what I wanted!”

“Perceptive and creative is how I would describe Retailworks. Working with Lyn’s team is a relationship. A relationship built on an understanding of what we want. Then with their talent, adding what we did not know we needed, to make the design remarkable. Sometimes I think about starting another project just to work with them again.”

“You were a real star at the Sentara Healthcare workshop! Everyone is still buzzing about how you took a subject this is so foreign to health care professionals and presented it in such an engaging manner that you had them learning and listening intently. The consensus was that the awareness level you raised, coupled with your expertise, will serve as a catalyst to moving Sentara into the ‘retail mentality’ that they are seeking to create. I look forward to recommending you to other clients…A sincere ‘thank you’ for a fabulous workshop!”

“Calling Retailworks, Inc. for a consultation for our jewelry store remodel was the best phone call I ever made. Lyn and her team provided us with the guidance we needed to completely remodel our store, which we weren’t finding anywhere else in the industry. Their coordination, organization and thoroughness throughout the entire project exceeded our expectations.
They made it so easy; their innovative creativity along with their expertise resulted in, in my opinion, the most beautiful jewelry store. Every part of our relationship with Retailworks has been effortless and rewarding.
We were so thrilled with their work with our store remodel, I didn’t want our relationship to end, so I hired them to do our window displays in 2019. Not only are we getting amazing reactions about our new store from our customers, our eye-catching windows are now attracting the attention of a whole new set of customers.”

“Lyn and her team were able to give my business a brand identity which we were lacking among all of our locations. Retailworks has both the creativity and the science to transform a business so it can reach the next level. They have been an absolute pleasure to work with over the last several years as my business has grown.”

Most important, their work has kept the authentic look to our century old building and contributed to the fun culture that we have here at the brewery to keep it a destination for our residents and visitors.”

“The ideation process with Retailworks was phenomenal. We shared with them 60 plus years of our history in motorsports and they helped us cultivate ideas that honed in on fan experience. They fine-tuned those ideas and turned a 5,000 sq. ft. rectangle into a bold, high-impact retail environment that has proven itself in both sales and customer loyalty.”

“We have had quite a bit of positive feedback on the redesign. The most common remark is, ‘This is a beautiful store!’ The secondary bridal area…is far more functional, and far more comfortable for everyone….[In] key areas [the design] has helped sales. The staff appreciates the investment.”
