Megan Crabtree spent decades in the jewelry industry before she ever consulted for it, first as a retail buyer, then as a VP, then running one of the largest manufacturers based in Manhattan and its product development. During that time, she noticed both sides of the business were making decisions about each other without ever really understanding each other.

​

She started Crabtree Consulting to close that gap directly, not with a framework or a deck, but by doing the actual work herself, on both sides of the table. The firm still works that way today, one client and one real set of data at a time.

​

How we work

Every engagement is scoped from scratch around the client's own data and systems, not a standard package. Crabtree Consulting has worked inside more than 20 distinct jewelry POS and inventory software systems across client engagements, which means the team can move inside a new client's system immediately, without a learning curve.

We stay in the work from the first data pull to the documented result. Every recommendation comes with the numbers behind it, whether that's inventory that turned, revenue that moved, or a margin that held where it used to slip.

​

Who we work with

Crabtree Consulting has a core client base of multichain independent retailers and manufacturers generating revenue from $50 million to $1 billion annually. The firm has a niche across these retailers in the U.S. and has also worked across international markets including India and China.
