CCS Girls catalog
Women work. Women earn. Women shop. Women skate.
If you were examining these statements in a marketing meeting, you might conclude that women can be earners, spenders and athletes. In this same meeting you might realize that female athletes are a growing market that needs to be tapped (no pun intended). Alas, most executives aren’t very smart, so the launch of female oriented action sport offerings are sketchy at best.
