Chapter 408 Each Has Its Strong Points
The brand’s owner’s face was tinged with happiness when he saw Abigail genuinely giving him some advice.
So, he immediately took out his business card and handed one to Abigail and Luna, respectively. “Can I buy you two a coffee?”
Luna raised her eyebrows as she took the business card. Then, she glanced at Abigail.
“Sure,” Abigail replied.
After all, the reason they came here to the exhibition was to find collaborators.
Then, the brand’s owner introduced himself briefly upon arriving at a nearby cafe.
His name was Howard Creed, and he was the new CEO of Fairy Meadow.
The moment Abigail took off her mask, Howard was beyond surprised. “You are… Alana!”
“Yes, I am. A pleasure to meet you, Mr. Creed,” Abigail said with a smile.
Howard involuntarily inhaled sharply as he muttered under his breath, “I didn’t expect it was
you.”
Luna immediately teased, “So, what’s the purpose of buying us coffee?”
“I thought you two were fashion designers, so I planned to seek out some advice regarding fashion designing… I don’t think I have any bravery left in me now,” Howard answered her, blushing.
“Fairy Meadow has been a time-honored women’s apparel brand for over a decade. To be honest, the design of the dress is quite disappointing to consumers,” Luna expressed frankly.
Even if Fairy Meadow’s price keeps up with the market price, both the design and workmanship are still extremely poor for its cost.
“You’re right. If truth be told, many CEOs before me have been fired. Furthermore, the company has been experiencing negative growth continuously for three years.” Howard couldn’t help but sigh after telling his side of the story.
Abigail scrutinized him briefly as she asked, “Do you come here to the exhibition to learn then?”
“Yes I know our company is doing worse than other companies in some aspects. Plus, I have looked at other companies’ designs, and their products are indeed much better than ours. It doesn’t help that the prices for their clothing are very affordable as well. Still, it will be difficult for me to negotiate a price reduction for our brand. After all, I’m just an executive CEO. The
1/3
company’s president can fire me anytime he wants. So, I’m mainly here to seek a breakthrough,” Howard replied to her sincerely.
“I can’t deny that breakthroughs are the top priority in design, but Fairy Meadow isn’t as good as the new brands popping up around the corner. Moreover, no one will like your products due to the high price tag. Tell me-which brand among the new luxury clothing brands is less famous. than Fairy Meadow?” Abigail leaned against the chair and spoke bluntly.
She had no intention to wound Howard, but she also wanted him to know that the market was cruel.
“The designers in Fairy Meadow refuse to look at the changes in the market. Is there any other way? For example, using better fabrics-”
“That’s not how it works if you want to succeed in the long term,” Abigail immediately interrupted him.
Howard still wanted to speak when Luna suddenly handed him her business card. “Do you want to cooperate with us?”
“Cooperate?” Although he was a little surprised, he still accepted the business card Luna handed
him.
