Get to Know Edwards Garment – Marketing

Marketing Department

We have come to the end of the road. We have met many of our wonderful departments who work for Edwards Garment. We may have some bias because the person who is writing this blog is in the marketing department, but we saved the best for last. 🙂

Our marketing depart is here to make sure all of the background work is taken care of. We sit at our desks updating the website, researching new products, posting to social media sites, gathering imprinted catalog orders, going to Roadshows and conventions so we can better our company as a whole. We also can’t forget the hours we put into getting clothing prepped for photo shoots, and putting together the playbooks, virtual samples and flyers.

The Website Wizard
This is Jenna. She is the wizard behind all the images, copy, and website features. If anyone ever has a question about Photoshop, she is the one to go to. In the blink of an eye she can have a new page added to the website, an image color changed, or a photo shopped image of anything you can imagine. Website design is also her specialty. All she is missing is a really nice long white beard and a blue cloak.

The Man
Simply, “The Man” is the only thing to describe Bryan. He can put together a playbook, flyer, or newsletter in a matter of seconds. His ability to organize and maintain all imprint catalog orders is remarkable. He is here to keep everyone on task, while also keeping a smile on everyone’s face. There is no flyer too big, and no lookbook template too small for Bryan. All he is missing is a cool pair of black sun glasses and an exploding building in slow motion behind him.

The Merchandiser
This is Kate. Kate helps bring you all the newest style ideas and help launches products. She is most famous for people having to tell her to get lunch, she is a busy bee and works hard all day. Kate puts together outfits for photo shoots, has the newest products, and is always looking to make Edwards become more fashion forward. Kate is THE person to go for anything new product related. She also has a bowl of candy at her desk, which is great for everyone. Kate needs a shiny crown and a magic wand for all that she makes happen.

Super Helpful Sidekicks
Even with the impeccable powers of these people, “many hands make light work” has never been more appreciated. These two young ladies, Robin and Molly are here only for the summer. Robin assists Kate with all things merchandising while Molly helps with marketing.These girls can be seen in the warehouse days before photo shoots steaming clothes and checking to make sure all garment pieces are accounted for. They are the best sidekicks to the almighty marketing department.

The Ring Leader
Who is the one who really runs the show? That would be Taraynn. Taraynn is the head of marketing and is here to keep us focused, on task, and most importantly, having fun. Taraynn heads to roadshows, reviews copy and pictures for catalogs, sits in and contributes to all the important meetings,  keeps us motivated, and occasionally uses her movie-making skills to make short films about upcoming products. Taraynn is the bees knees, we think she wears an invisible cape all the time.
