About Revive
Revive is the inventory value recovery platform for fashion brands. The inventory brands used to donate, destroy, or sell to jobbers at 1–2% of MSRP — damaged, returned, excess — Revive converts into revenue through the channels where it will command the highest value. Whether that's live commerce, curated resale, targeted demand channels, or refurbishment and restock back into full-price retail, we know where each SKU belongs and how to get it there, recovering 5–13× more than traditional liquidation while protecting brand equity.
Our motion is simple: a brand sends us their unsellable inventory, we assess it item by item and route each piece to where it will net the highest value. They watch dormant inventory become a revenue stream.
Then they become an evergreen partner — sending recurring shipments and earning a tiered profit share that grows with volume and SKU value.
The Role
You will own everything that happens after a brand signs the trial one-pager. That means a flawless 28-day trial experience, a compelling debrief meeting, an evergreen conversion, and a growing book of recurring shipment partners who expand their volume and unlock higher profit-share tiers over time.
This is not a traditional CSM role. You are working with brand founders, VP-Ops leaders, and returns leads who are used to getting almost nothing for their damaged inventory. You are showing them — live, in real time — that those damages can become demand. Your job is to make that moment land, and then turn it into a long-term commercial relationship.
In Q2 and Q3 you will own a book of 30 brands. By Q4 you will be hiring and leading a small team.
Example of What You Will Own
Trial Activation & Experience (Weeks 1–4)
The trial is the product. Every touchpoint is engineered to prove four things to the brand: damages can be in-demand inventory, live commerce is the highest-value recovery channel, tiered profit share rewards recurrence, and Revive treats the brand like a partner — not a dumping ground.
-
Own the Ops handoff the moment a brand says yes — signed one-pager, shipment ETA confirmed, receiving prep initiated within 24 hours.
-
Coordinate QC, photo intake, and lot grouping with Live Ops within 48 hours of receipt.
-
Send the Week 1 branded 'received' email with photos and the recovery model so the brand can see what their inventory will become.
-
Orchestrate the watch-party: $200 shopping credits, 24-hour prep primer, live narration in the watch room during the show ('notice how this lot just doubled').
-
Deliver the same-day GMV recap and highlight reel within 60 minutes of show end.
-
Lead the 30-minute debrief meeting 3 business days after the show — show clips, recovery % vs. liquidator baseline, and the tiered profit-share proposal at 3 shipment cadences.
Evergreen Conversion & Expansion
The debrief is a close meeting, not a summary meeting. The brand has felt the proof; your job is to lock in the recurring relationship.
-
Present the tiered profit-share model: quarterly (30%), monthly (40%), monthly + premium SKUs (50% of net GMV).
-
Execute the three-ask close in order: confirm cadence, confirm first evergreen ship date within 30 days, confirm signatory and send agreement same day.
-
If they say 'not yet,' push to a second trial shipment — not to evergreen. Two data points beat one every time.
-
Expand accounts by surfacing new damages categories, new seasonal volume, and new decision-makers (e.g., CEO watch-party seat after Ops attended Trial #1).
-
Own GRR (Gross Revenue Retention) and NRR (Net Revenue Retention) across your book.
Objection Handling & Brand Trust
You will hear the same objections repeatedly. You will know the exact reframe and the exact next step for each one.
-
'Damages will hurt our brand.' → Closed-audience live commerce is the opposite of clearance. Show the last show's chat. The audience treats it as a treasure hunt, not a markdown.
-
'We already donate everything.' → Donation receipts are great. We layer cash on top, and the brand still gets the goodwill story. Offer A buyout; they can donate the cash.
-
'We don't have time.' → Concierge model. They have two tasks: sign the one-pager, ship the pallet. We handle everything else.
-
'3% MSRP isn't enough.' → It's above current liquidation rates. And Offer B (no-cost trial) keeps 100% of net sales to them. Show recovery % from a comparable brand.
Playbook Stewardship
Feed win/loss patterns back into the Sales Playbook in the monthly iteration meeting.
Maintain minimum CRM hygiene: tier, decision-maker, offer, ship date, GMV, recovery %, watch-party attendance, conversion outcome.
Flag health issues to the Sales lead immediately: trial close rate <30%, activation lag >21 days, watch-party no-shows on 2+ consecutive trials, conversion rate
Who You Are
You are built for the trial-to-evergreen motion
-
You have owned a book of B2B accounts in a high-velocity, early-stage environment and can point to conversion and retention metrics you drove.
-
You are comfortable working with founder-led and VP-level decision-makers at fashion or consumer brands — you know their language and their pressures.
-
You have run live events or experiential moments as part of a customer journey and know how to make them land.
-
You understand unit economics well enough to present a tiered profit-share model clearly — and to know when a brand is close to converting vs. genuinely not ready.
You operate like the playbook
-
You track every touchpoint in CRM before the next contact. You do not wing it.
-
You can run the 20-minute discovery script cold and the 30-minute debrief meeting warm.
-
You can run MBR, QBR and ABR to minimize churn risk and maximize the expansion opportunity with each brand partner.
-
You escalate health flags before they become churned accounts, not after.
-
You thrive in 'test and optimize' environments — you give feedback to the playbook, not just to the brand.
You are ready to build
-
You have a point of view on what a great CS org looks like at an early stage, an infrastructure company that works with fashion brands— and you are willing to build it from scratch.
