Shopping Assistance – For Groups
Many groups have already opted for shopping assistance. Companies often provide specific funds for clothing, or sometimes just for the costs of the organizer.
From my experience, this type of shopping assistance is an excellent, relaxing, and beneficial team-building activity.
WHERE
Consultation at Emporium, BTC, in a dedicated space – the consulting room.
HOW MANY PARTICIPANTS
Groups of four people.
I lead the shopping and advice sessions, and I am assisted by four consultants – salespeople.
HOW IT WORKS
A spreadsheet is created where the participants’ size numbers are entered – for better preparation.
Clothing for the clients is prepared in advance.
Each participant has their own dressing room and rack of clothes.
We try on clothes and choose items. If desired, we can go together again around the store.
A seamstress will mark any necessary alterations.
The altered clothing is delivered to the company.
DISCOUNTS
By agreement with the store manager:
- A specific discount
- Free assistance from their salespeople
- Free tailoring services
- Delivery of clothes to the company
PREPARATIONS
- Determining the funds available for each individual
- Creating a participant spreadsheet and schedule
- For a group of men, we typically need two hours; for a group of women, three hours.
