Retailer Training
Sales assistants are the front-line brand ambassadors for your business. Investing in comprehensive training is crucial to enhance productivity and ultimately increase turnover. I specialise in running intensive courses for sales assistants in various fashion retail environments, equipping them with the skills they need to provide genuine style advice and elevate the customer experience. My courses have a direct impact on staff productivity, retention, and motivation.
I have worked with numerous renowned retailers, including NEXT, Michael Kors, Debenhams, House of Fraser, Fenwicks, Heathrow Airport, Elys Wimbledon, Camp Hopson and Heathrow Airport, to name a few. Please email me to discuss your in-store training requirements.
Outsourced Personal Shopping
Personal Shopping is fast becoming an essential retail service which helps to build and nurture relationships with new and existing customers. Running a productive, profitable personal shopping service can be time consuming and an added drain on resources.
I help retailers set up and/or manage their in-house personal shopping services; ensuring a consistent and high quality service; where revenue targets are met and exceeded. Please email me to set up a time to discuss your personal shopping requirements in more detail.
