Privé Porter

Miami-based authentic luxury handbag reseller took the fashion lovers world by storm with the ability to find rare and highly coveted pieces. After giving the brand a sophisticated, high-end, and slightly edgy look, Privé Porter got its fair share of attention with a Birkin boat in 2015, a pop-up store in Miami's Brickell Center in 2020, celebrity custom requests, and owner and founder Michelle Berk featured on the cover of Forbes France in 2021.

FROM WOMEN FOUNDERS

"I have to tell you, I was always dying to come back and learn more even with having a 7 month old and an ever growing TO DO list. Your passion and knowledge kept pulling me back. I am truly so grateful and will recommend this course to anyone I know wanting to start something new. I feel so energized and excited for what is to come. I am so grateful for all the work and dedication you put into it because out of everything I have done to get prepared to launch my own business, I have to say this course gave me so much joy and excitement and it will have a lasting impact on me."

Maria M., Dallas TX

“If you own a brand or are in charge of branding for a particular company, run don’t walk to Erika Brechtel. Nobody translates the look and feel of a brand digitally, better or more beautifully than she can."

Marisa Perry, Marisa Perry Atelier NYC

"I learned more about business in the Brand Building Foundations Course than 2 years of business classes!"

Lauren V., UCLA

"Erika works truly like a partner in the process of strategically thinking about a brand and its vision. When I work with her I feel like I am in the presence of a caring professor in marketing walking me through every step. I am always blown away by her wisdom, expertise, and genuine care for me to succeed as a woman business leader which is why I do sincerely see her as a partner. She is also so professional and reliable, which goes a long way for me! Erika is my go-to person for every project or idea I have had since 2009, there's no one like her!"

Jennet Chow, Jellypop Shoes & Evolution Design Lab

"I was recommended to Erika by a friend who had consulted with her and said she was 'simply the best', without a doubt no truer words have ever been spoken. Erika invests far more time into the why, who and how of what makes YOU you than anyone else in her business sector. There were so many moments over our 6 months working together that I was moved beyond words at her ability to see me and my vision and bring it to life through design. Without a doubt, Erika is the asset of a lifetime to build a company, a brand and a business to span lifetimes."

Jessica Gylsen, The Dazzling Concierge

"I came to Erika thinking maybe I needed a website, and that's it. But through the strategy sessions, branding, website and materials designs,  I realized I needed so much more. It wasn't just the pieces Erika created for me, it was having an ally who could help me through the process of starting something totally new on my own. I couldn't have done this without her helping me find my voice."

Dr. Andrea Matsumura, Sleep Physician

"I’ve admired Erika and her work for YEARS and am now lucky enough to know her personally and work with her professionally. She is one of the most talented, creative, inspiring, and hard-working women."

Kat Tanita, With Love From Kat

"As a one-person marketing team in a start-up, Erika is not only a sophisticated brand, graphic, and UX designer, but she’s also my sidekick marketing strategist, brainstorm partner, and social media adviser. She brings creativity, insight, and a positive outlook to every project, and her ability to translate ideas into compelling visuals is unmatched. On top of all that, she’s such a thoughtful, lovely person to work with. I'm so lucky to have her on my side!"

Leah Morgan, Head of Marketing, Qvin
