The retainer model,
reimagined.

Most intelligence firms deliver a deck twice a year. TVI operates on a weekly cadence — embedded context that compounds with every volume.

01

Embedded Onboarding

We build deep institutional context on your brand, channels, competitive set, and strategic priorities before volume one is delivered.

02

04

Continuous Refinement

Intelligence compounds. Each volume builds on institutional context from prior volumes — the longer the relationship, the sharper the signal.

to footwear leadership.

From channel dynamics to collab strategy — TVI covers the full intelligence surface across categories, brands, and channels.

Account concentration risk, AUR integrity, pricing channel conflict, sell-through benchmarks, and retailer relationship signals. The intelligence your sales team sees on the floor — synthesized for the C-suite.

Competitive

Brand Positioning & Launch Intelligence

Competitor launch tracking, channel strategy shifts, collab pipeline analysis, and brand heat benchmarking across your full competitive set — not just the obvious ones.

Consumer

Consumer Profile Intelligence

Geographic distribution gap analysis, door-level performance signals, account tier mapping, and regional opportunity identification — from Sun Belt to specialty outdoor corridors.

Strategy

Executive Synthesis & Roadmap

Every volume closes with a prioritized strategic action set for leadership — not just what's happening, but what to do about it. Intelligence that drives decisions, not just awareness.

Not a consulting firm.
An intelligence system.

The difference between TVI and traditional footwear consulting isn't methodology — it's architecture.

01

Continuous, Not Episodic

Traditional firms deliver a report. TVI delivers an ongoing intelligence layer — updated weekly, compounding over time, always embedded in your current strategic context.

02

Executive Experience, Not Research Analysts

15+ years of footwear executive experience across brand strategy, wholesale, and channel management. Every brief is written by someone who has sat in your seat.

03

AI-Native Infrastructure

TVI operates on AI-native research and production infrastructure — delivering institutional-depth intelligence at a cadence no traditional firm can match, and at a retainer cost that reflects it.
