A standing counsel for consumer brands.

95 Collective is a limited advisory collective built for consumer and CPG brands — the founders and operators deciding what to stop, what to sharpen, and what to build next. We are not an agency and we are not a fund. We are the standing counsel in the room when the decisions that set the next twelve months are made.

We work with brands at every stage — pre-launch teams shaping their first offer, early-traction companies finding durable distribution, and established operators who have hit a plateau that more spend will not fix. The common thread is intent: brands that want to grow deliberately rather than drift, and leaders who want a thinking partner more than a vendor.

Each engagement runs on a quarterly rhythm. A written agenda sets the objectives and the one, three, and five-year goals. Standing sessions keep the conversation moving, with notes held in one place and tasks that carry between quarters. We take on a deliberately small number of engagements at a time — ten to fifteen — so the same operator is in the room every quarter, and the counsel stays close to the work.

The scope is broad by design: positioning and category, retail readiness, channel strategy, pricing architecture, team and org design, and the harder questions of brand and identity that surface as a company scales. The premise is simple — growth is not a volume problem, it is a clarity problem — and our role is to help clear it.
