Becoming a Personal Shopper
Be a personal shopper and turn your fashion sense into an income-generating endeavour. Build your experience through retail selling and be familiar with trends, prices, products and brand names. You must know your client, their profession and what they need to wear. Be on top of fashion trends through Internet or magazines for updates. Build a portfolio and record what you are doing, your clients, what you recommended to them and why as well as how the client looked after. These can serve as your future references. Furthermore, acquire testimonials from your clients regarding your services and skills. For starters, assist colleagues, friends and relatives. Target busy corporate professionals whose work demands a certain dress code and who have no time to organize their wardrobe. Keep in touch with your clients through phone or whatever is possible. Remember, your clients are busy professionals. That is why they availed your services.
