The Mac & Mac team jumped in right away and worked hard to learn about our business, capabilities, and competitive strengths. Mac & Mac quickly became an extension of our team and were able to represent Blu Dot with confidence and conviction. The Mac & Mac team was always super collaborative and acted like owners of our business – especially when we were facing a challenging situation with a tough customer. Mac & Mac helped Blu Dot get started with numerous retailers over the years, but more importantly, they built strong and productive relationships with the cross-functional teams at our key retailers.

Mac & Mac is a very professional team that always takes a proactive stance in all aspects of my business from start to finish. They would “live and breathe” our brands which allowed us to consider them as an extension of our staff and a valuable asset to our company goals.

Kyle M.

Mac & Mac associates were problem-solving partners. When we ran short on photography resources they quickly jumped in and asked the vendor if they could provide lifestyle imagery that would set their product apart and increase conversion on the website. When I ran short on open to buy they convinced the manufacturer to store the desired item domestically so we could drop ship the item to the guest, and gain market share in the critical gazebo category.
