The Shoe community is a fantastic group if you’re trying to set up a shoe brand, sharing questions and answers about all things shoes. Masterclasses and others sharing their experiences / contacts etc has been especially great to help encourage and kickstart your footwear business.

I can’t even put into words how much this community has meant to me as I’ve built my brand. Susannah’s support has also meant the world and us footwear entrepreneurs are lucky to be in her orbit!

The Shoe Community is an invaluable resource I found shortly after I decided to step outside of my box and found a footwear brand for extended women’s sizes. Susannah is knowledgeable, friendly, and creates great content for startup founders. The community members are also friendly and share a sense of camaraderie. Through the Shoe Community, I located my first partner factory and gained great tips for my first crowdfunding campaign, during which I raised $8,000. Susannah Davda and the Shoe Community will always be a part of Etta Grove’s history. Thank you.

I had a really good experience with The Shoe Community, Susannah is a wealth of information. It was so refreshing to have an expert who not only has knowledge about the design aspects of shoes, but with marketing, sales, branding, and much more. My only regret is not knowing about The Shoe Community sooner!

The Shoe Consultant is a great resource for people who are looking to build their shoe brand. From concept to design and from manufacturing to sales, Susannah will help you at any stage of the process. Gaining insights from people all over the world is what makes The Shoe Consultant worth being a part of. With her help, I look forward to creating & selling a successful shoe brand!

Susannah is your go to consultant for all things footwear! Knowledgeable, approachable and a keen supporter of budding footwear designers. There are not enough words to describe Susannah…oh and an astute professional. Thank you for making it look so easy.

I have been so impressed with all the information available on your Facebook group [The Shoe Community private group]. I can’t wait to get through all of the videos. It has been really insightful already!

You have made a process which at first seemed sooooo unachievable a reality and allowed me to see it to fruition and I am only half way there. I can’t thank you enough and I wish for you to keep up the amazing work you are doing.

[In answer to “What do you like about The Shoe Community?”] It is the sensation that I am surrounded by members who want to share ideal information in order to produce excellency within the shoe industry. I love the master video classes.

[on The Shoe Community masterclasses] Really interesting to hear from successful shoe founders and it’s made interactive even if you cannot make it live.

[on the ‘How Much Does it Cost to Start a Shoe Brand?’ masterclass] I got down about three pages of notes so it was definitely very very useful! It was great to hear from you both and I logged out feeling very inspired!

[on the ‘How Much Does it Cost to Start a Shoe Brand?’ masterclass] All very interesting. Thanks again for a very insightful presentation.
