• The Clothing Warehouse is a system of vintage clothing stores, specializing in extremely fashionable jeans, Ts, dresses, cowboy boots, accessories and other items.
• I helped build The Clothing Warehouse to 1) several stores (both corporately-owned and franchised), 2) a blossoming franchise sales/support infrastructure and 3) a large and growing vintage wholesale business. We became the largest vintage clothing chain and largest vintage wholesale business in the country in a few short years - and we started with only one corporately-owned store when I joined the partnership.
• I sold my interest in the company to my partner and friend Jim Buckley, so that I could focus on my quickly-growing business development consulting firm, Bunnell Idea Group (BIG). BIG is my passion. I love the ever-changing world of consulting. While I really enjoyed my partners and I personally had a blast growing this business, I now focus my time and energy on helping other companies grow their business faster, while deepening relationships.
