Reps are not an afterthought here
Incumbent platforms treat reps as brand seats with fewer permissions. Apparel Market treats the buyer book as a first-class workspace: assigned accounts, territory context, represented portfolio, and commission expectations live together, separate from brand-owner catalog controls.
The brief writes itself from the book
An appointment brief is generated from real buyer history — recent saves, open inquiries, draft and submitted orders, category coverage, and what changed since the last conversation. You walk into the appointment already knowing where the open-to-buy conversation starts.
Attribution is recorded, not remembered
Rep attribution attaches to orders as they happen, and commission-aware ordering keeps rates and projected commissions visible alongside the pipeline — including commission statements built from actual order flow rather than end-of-season spreadsheet archaeology.
Private previews protect the relationship
Showroom teams steer buyers into curated line sheets, invite links, and gated access requests. The relationship stays yours: buyer lists are not exposed to other brands, and protected-account rules are part of the data model, not a promise.
The founding desk starts from your application
Founding Showroom Partners apply with the book they actually run — accounts, territories, represented brands, commission workflow — and the launch desk is provisioned from that application. The first session starts with your business in it, not a blank workspace.
