Personal Shopper Career
Would you consider being a personal shopper as a career?
I used to work at a department store that had personal shopper. They had a very loyal clientele base and often got referrals. They were really good at knowing what styles looked good on different body types and were creative in putting outfits together, mixing and matching what was currently in their clients’ wardrobes. Their service as a personal shopper is complimentary and they were paid a certain commission percentage based on what their clients purchased. So the better they are at their consultations, the more likely their clients will purchase.
There are, however, different types of personal shoppers some specialize strictly in men’s vs. women’s clothing. And although my experience has been in a department store setting, I know someone that had their own business as a personal shopper.
To be a personal shopper, you definately need to have a clientele base to be successful. But you can start with family and friends and ask for referrals. It’s definately a fun career if you like to shop for others and are good at wardrobing.
Good luck on your career choice!
