THE RETAIL EDIT

Visual Merchandising + Retail Styling

A fresh perspective can help your retail space attract attention, engage customers and support sales.

​

Whether you're welcoming new stock, preparing for a promotion, refreshing for the season or simply feel your space needs some attention, The Retail Edit provides hands-on visual merchandising and styling support.

​

From windows and feature displays to product placement and in-store styling, I'll work with what you have to refresh key areas and create a space that feels considered, inviting and ready for customers.

THE EVENT EDIT

Event Management + Styling

Creative and practical support to bring your event together.

​

From corporate functions and launches to Christmas parties, activations and special events, The Event Edit can support as much or as little of the process as you need.

​

This might include concept development, styling, sourcing, suppliers, event planning, and on-the-day coordination tailored to the event and your needs.

​

The aim is to create an experience that looks great, runs smoothly and leaves people with a positive connection to your business or brand.​

THE MARKETING EDIT

​Marketing + PR + Campaign Support

Flexible marketing support when your business needs an extra pair of experienced hands.

​

Whether you need help with a campaign, promotion, launch or one-off project, The Marketing Edit provides practical support to help get things moving.

​

From marketing and PR to social media, content, campaigns and promotions, I can help develop the idea, work out the plan, create or coordinate what's needed and bring the different pieces together with a focus on reaching your customers, creating engagement and supporting your business goals.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

I’m Carissa, the creative behind Carissa Jane Creative.

​

With more than 10 years’ experience across marketing, retail and events, I’ve worked on everything from campaigns and promotions to visual merchandising, styling, events and creative projects.

​

I’ve always been drawn to the creative and visual side of marketing - how a space, display, event or campaign can capture attention, create a feeling and connect with people.

 

Carissa Jane Creative brings those different parts of my experience together. I work with businesses that need a fresh perspective, an extra pair of experienced hands, or someone to help take an idea and turn it into something real.

​

Whether I’m refreshing a retail space, helping bring an event together or working on a marketing project, I like to understand what you’re trying to achieve, find the right approach and work together to make it happen.
