I started Tendy Problems out of my dorm room while attending Orchard Lake St. Mary's when I was 15 years old. Goalies in hockey are always the odd ones out, and I wanted a place where goalies could be odd together without catching the flak!I never intended it to be anything more than a place for goaltenders to come and complain about putting up with 18 skaters on a hockey team. It quickly transitioned into a lifestyle brand. Here are some things I am proud of...-Negotiated sponsorship and partner deals with major global gear brands, local rinks, and leagues-Broker sourcing agreements -Executed retail strategy and negotiated pricing on wholesale-inventory for brick-and-mortar-Sales in 30+ States, every Province in Canada, as well as the Netherlands, Australia and Switzerland with a $15 marketing strategy.-Developed and executed a marketing strategy that fostered then leveraged relationships with professional athletes (NHL, AHL, OHL, etc.) -Envision and developed brand identity -Oversee management of website and social media channels for sales and marketing Goaltending is much more than a position, it becomes who you are. Only a goalie will understand a goalie and that is what drove me to create Tendy Problems Hockey Apparel. Tendy Problems mission is to serve and honor goaltenders in every corner of the world through the form of apparel.
