“I have just completed an introduction to VM with Sarah, and it was fantastic! I had been approached with the opportunity to create window displays by a client who was impressed by my creativity, however I had no prior knowledge of merchandising or using creativity within a retail setting. Sarah’s course covered the key principles of VM and she tailored it to suit the specific needs of my client. Coming from a creative background I knew how to create a pleasing display, but it was Sarah’s guidance that gave me the confidence to create my first window display armed with the knowledge of how best to showcase my client’s products.
I am now a very happy fledgling visual merchandiser with a very pleased client! Sarah is incredibly warm and engaging; I’d recommend this course to anyone looking to increase their retail display skills.”

“We hired Sarah to provide VM training for our retail managers and it was a huge success. The managers really engaged with the course, and enjoyed the mix of practical and theoretical presentation, and all gave extremely positive feedback. They also went back to stores and immediately put in to practice what they had learned, which gave measurable increases in revenue.”

In 2015 I decided to up my skill set and invest in a Visual Merchandising course run by Sarah Manning.

It was an outstanding three days. Sarah is a great teacher, generous with her time and very encouraging. I learned a lot from Sarah and my skills have been put to good use, even when styling my own home. Highly recommended and to Sarah I say a heartfelt thank you.

Myself and my team found the merchandise training given by Sarah very useful and beneficial to the job roles we cover. It left us with the confidence to be able to positively visual merchandise our stores.
