How to: Pivot from Design to Business in D2C

Moving from a creative role into a business function in D2C isn’t just about learning excel, it’s about reframing how you think, communicate, and make decisions.

In this session, I’ll help you bridge the gap between design and business by:

• Identifying transferable skills from creative to commercial roles
• Building fluency in P&L, pricing, and growth metrics without losing your creative edge
• Understanding the key levers in D2C success, from product-market fit to inventory and marketing ROI
• Navigating internal transitions and earning credibility with cross-functional teams

And most importantly, how to make this switch without an MFM/MBA

You’ll walk away with actionable strategies, frameworks, and next steps tailored to your context, so you can confidently move from designing products to shaping the business that sells them.
