LIVE from SOAHR 2023: Jennifer Paradis, Signatures Apparel (North Fulton Business Radio, Episode 645)

Owner and CEO of Signatures Apparel, Jennifer Paradis sat down with host John Ray LIVE at SOAHR 2023. Jennifer shared the many services Signatures offers small and large companies in branded apparel and policing brand consistency. She and John talked about customizing apparel to reflect the role of the employee, the importance of quality, and more.

This show was originally broadcast live from SOAHR 2023, the annual conference of SHRM-Atlanta, held at the Gas South District Convention Center, Duluth, Georgia on March 28th and 29th, 2023. This series of interviews was underwritten by Oberman Law Firm, your legal guide to workplace complexities.

North Fulton Business Radio is broadcast from the North Fulton studio of Business RadioX® inside Renasant Bank in Alpharetta.

Jennifer Paradis, CEO and Owner, Signatures Apparel

Signatures Apparel’s model is unique. They stands squarely in the void between expensive rental uniform programs and the traditional purchased apparel approach—both of which have become expensive and cumbersome for ordering, distributing and managing. The Signatures Apparel Program delivers the best of both worlds: The convenience of a rental uniform program but the cost efficiency of annual purchasing and the value of ownership—complete with no long-term contracts, no minimum order requirements and the largest selection in the industry.

Since 1992, Signatures has established a competitive position in the corporate apparel and company logo embroidering industry. However, since Jennifer purchased the company in early 2016, she has transformed the company’s processes, culture and focus on service, quickly emerging as an industry leader. In doing so, Jennifer and her team have changed how corporate apparel programs function, and challenged the status-quo model that—for decades—kept the burden of apparel management on the client.

As a Certified Woman Owned Business, Jennifer and her team are eager to serve you!

Southwest-Solutions-logo

Southwest Solutions is an award winning marketing materials agency that has been going the extra mile for their clients since 2014.

With a diverse team comprising more than 45 years of experience in the industry, they help people think beyond the product and leverage the emotional exchange that marketing actually is.

Vera-Minot-Phoenix-Business-RadioVera Minot is the Creative Director for, and part owner of, Southwest Solutions – an award winning promotional design company. She is a heart-first professional who’s known for her creativity; aversion to small talk; and appreciation good vocabulary and clever marketing materials.

She studied Linguistics and Gender & Women’s Studies at the University of Arizona, and after stints in a variety of industries that converged into a unique perspective on business and humans, she joined the team at SWS.

She never knew she’d love her industry so much, but every business or organization has a unique brand story to tell, and when she realized promotional products & custom apparel don’t have to be boring (nor do they have to be straight-to-the-trash-swag) she was hooked!

In her free time, Vera serves as the President of the Tucson LGBT Chamber of Commerce – cultivating a safe space for queer folks in business but also a space of learning for allies who are tremendously important to the LGBTQIA+ community.

In the free time that’s left, you’ll find her being active, tending to too many houseplants, reading, and hanging out with her wife and their cats.
