TCFKAG SHOPS JUST FOR YOU
Do you like the fashion, shopping finds, and styling advice I post here? Do you ever thing - "man, I wish I could ask her a question and just have her answer my question one-on-one with feedback so I could find just the right items." Or "I don't need one thing, I need a whole WARDROBE." Or "I don't need anything, but I really want to learn how she does this!" Or even "I like the stuff in my closet now, but I'm so sick of how I wear it - I need someone to help me figure out how to pair it differently."
Well....YOU HAVE COME TO THE RIGHT PLACE. Starting this week, I am going to be doing one-on-one personal shopping - for reasonable rates. I want to make sure my rates are reasonable because (a) none of you know me personally and I have no real experience doing this yet, so you are all sort of my test subjects (lets.be.honest.here) and (b) I don't want to add a substantial enough amount to the price of any new clothes that you buy that its not worth it.
NOTE: THE PRICING SYSTEM I'M NOTING BELOW IS TENTATIVE, IF I FIND IT DOESN'T WORK FOR ANY REASON, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE IT FOR ANY REASON (THOUGH OBVIOUSLY NOT MID-JOB.

THERE WILL BE TWO SEPARATE PRICING SYSTEMS FOR MY PERSONAL SHOPPING SERVICES
|
1. The second pricing option will be a flat rate.
2. The flat rate will be set once you describe in sufficient detail what you need, and will probably be done in increments of $25 - so $25, $50, $75, $100 (and so on I suppose - though if anyone pays me more than $100 I'll be doing a happy dance for days.) 3. This payment plan will be available for clients asking more traditional vicarious shopping questions - like, I need to find a dress to wear to x event, or I like these boots and and want a pair like them, or I need to revamp my whole wardrobe and am x size and am apple shaped. That sort of thing. Since I have a fairly good idea of how long those questions take me to answer - I feel confident about setting a fixed price from the beginning that the client can choose to take or leave (or lets be honest, negotiate.) 4. This is obviously a nice option for clients who can be sure how much the services will cost from the moment we set off on the journey, instead of relying on my hourly billing and how long it takes. |
Note: Interested but not sure? Look below the comment form where I will be adding client reactions and reviews as I get them. So you can see how I am doing and what people think of my services and whether they'd use my services again! And don't worry - I won't only post the good ones. ;-P
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT!
TCFKAG Shops is now officially in the business of personal shopping. For money (lol.) It blows my mind a bit still, but I will do my best work for anyone and everyone who comes my way and I hope make the world a more comfortably stylish place as I do so; a world that includes more stripes and polka dots and purple and maybe even skulls (a girl can dream.) So - you ask - how do I get in contact with you about this awesome, must use personal shopping business. Fill out the form below and I'll get back to you ASAP! In the contact box, submit the basics of what you would like me to help you out with - but remember that I'll be getting in touch with you to clarify and really get to the meat of the question (and determine pay structure) - so don't worry too much about specifics in the first contact form. Also indicate if you'd prefer e-mail or a phone call - and if you prefer phone - give me your digits. THANKS!!! You're all AWESOME!!!!
CLIENT REACTIONS
Dear TCFKAG - Thanks so much for your recent help in selecting and accessorizing an outfit for my upcoming summer wedding! You found so many dress options for me online - and my favorite dress was 75% off! Who knew one could get such a cute dress at such a steal online. The shoe options you picked out to go with the dress were so cute - and, again, cheap! - that I ended up buying two pairs, knowing they would be great pieces for my wardrobe moving forward. Once we had the new dress and shoes picked out, you patiently suggested accessory ideas not just for the one dress we picked out togethers, but two others that were personal favorites I was considering as well. You were never judgemental about these other dresses, but through the accessorization process, gently showed me how they were both a bit more casual than made sense for the wedding. You still showed me lots of accessory options for these other dresses, and suggested other events and outings that these outfits could be perfect for! I came away not just with a cheap, elegant and fun outfit for the wedding I'll be attending, but new options for outfits I'd wear going out with friends. What a wonderful gift! Thank you for your insight, your persistence, your kindness. It was a pleasure working with you and I can't thank you enough. - A personal shopping convert.
