Compensation negotiation expert Sophie Warwick joins the Vintage Sellers Community Feb. 26 to support shop owners as they tackle setting rates for their services

Do you offer a service as part of your vintage or resale shop, or are you considering one?

What if you've received a contract from a brand, but you think you deserve a higher rate? How do you start a conversation about compensation as a vintage seller?

You need to be able to confidently ask for what you deserve, and stand behind your rates.

Join Sophie Warwick, co-founder of The Thoughtful Co., in a fireside chat/Q&A session that'll have you feeling more secure in your value proposition as you enter negotiations.

Sophie and her business partner Jillian Climie co-founded The Thoughtful Co., a consultancy that supports women in negotiating their compensation and advises employers on improving gender equity. They offer their clients 1:1 compensation negotiation support, workshops, and develop programs with brands.

They also work with entrepreneurs and small business owners on rate-setting.

Before co-founding The Thoughtful Co., Sophie was an engineer and in 2018 co-founded Women in Consulting Engineering, a non-profit advocacy group.

She also chairs employee resource groups and advocacy groups, and, as part of The Thoughtful Co., has developed further expertise on compensation and negotiation from Jillian, who has spent her career in executive compensation including at two global retailers.

In this Q&A session, we'll be talking about rates that are beyond the price tags on your products — though you'll be able to take some of the confidence-building tips to your product pricing strategy, too.

Communicating your value, identifying your non-negotiables, methods for rate setting, and navigating commissions and contracts are all on the docket.

Don't miss this chance to bring your questions for Sophie!
