Alexandra Wilkis Wilson, Co-Founder of Fitz, is a serial entrepreneur tackling problems in the beauty and apparel industry. After co-founding Gilt Groupe and serving as CEO of GlamSquad, Wilkis Wilson is moving on to her next big venture. She shares how her new company, Fitz, an in-home styling service, is helping consumers across the country.
Wilkis Wilson says her company is catering to time-starved consumers. People get busy with life events such as weddings, new jobs, and weight-gain, and can lose sight of their wardrobe, says Wilkis Wilson. Fitz makes it easy for consumers to get their style in order by sending stylists straight to the clients' doors.
Fitz has a deep network of 400 affiliates to help clients shop for style pieces they are missing at a wide range of price points. Wilkis Wilson also discusses the amazon effect. She says there is truth behind the belief that retail is in a tough spot because of the e-commerce giant, but remains hopeful that there is "room for the little guys" as well.
