BOLD is excited to welcome our newest Senior Director for Retail Strategy, Shannon Brewer, to the team!

Shannon has over 25 years of experience in retail and joins BOLD with strong leadership qualities and extensive experience in consumer products marketing and people development. This results-oriented Arkansas native has a proven track record of growing key account sales, building strong customer relationships, improving profitability, leading sales teams, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. She previously worked for big brands like Walmart and Microsoft.

We wanted to get to know more about Shannon in her own words. Here's what she had to say...

What's your hometown?

Bentonville, AR – and it has been amazing to see the growth and changes to our area!

 Why did you decide to join Bold Strategies?

I have worked in retail for over 25 years, and this is an exciting time in our industry.  Consumers are shopping in new ways and brands are adjusting quickly or being left behind.  This is a tremendous opportunity to grow sales in new ways, build relationships by providing effective solutions, and learn from the best! 

 What's the first thing you ever bought on Amazon.com? What does that say about you?

A book! It is funny how that was the entry point, and now it is anything and everything! I do love to read!

 What's your favorite book?

Any book written by Pat Conroy

 What's your favorite place?

Home!

 "I'm happiest when I'm..." 

With my family, grilling out on the deck at the ranch, and watching sports.

 "People would be surprised to know that..."

I come from a famous horse training family, but I am the only one that does not ride!
