Read the room. It’s nice to be greeted when entering an establishment. You may receive a beverage and a starter line such as “How may we help you?” or “looking for anything specific.” Hotels might say “Welcome to… or “Hello my name is..”. Either way, there’s always a starter and a finisher. In hotels, you might hear “enjoy your stay” or something similar. In retail, “Thank you for shopping with us”. It’s what happens in the middle that, that makes all the difference. During that interaction were you pleasant or pushy? Did you intentionally make the customer/guest feel welcomed or unintentionally feel like a sale to be had? On this day in the picture below, I was interested in purchasing a bracelet from Tiffany’s. But was it for me??? No, not really. After stating to my sales person what I came to purchase, I soon noticed more energy was being put into trying to convince me on how amazing I’d look with this bracelet than in the actual purchase I was interested in. 🙄 (sidebar: an oversell can cost the sale) My salesperson was kind, generous, and very welcoming but I didn’t feel as if I mattered past a sale. 😮💨 Unlike the sense of relief, I felt afterward, great service leaves your customer/guest filled with a sense of simplicity and gratitude during and after their transaction. As the old saying goes “read the room”.

I am so excited to share that Christy hit its highest ever sales target on christy.co.uk in November. Our Black Friday sales were a huge success. While the numbers have really given us a morale boost, what is also essential to acknowledge is that any workplace is as good as its team. And last weekend all the stellar teamwork of the last few months showed up on the website and in the numbers to make it one of our highest ever sales this month on Christy's brand.com. Here’s a shoutout to the star team. Special mention to Suraj Dhillon for working so hard, strategizing, setting up processes and making the website ready for sales and for going above and beyond. Laura Hannah for working so hard and fixing issues and making sure both mailers and the website is aligned. @amit turbathmath for monitoring sales on all channels, working through the weekend and ironing out bugs and issues. Danishe Chopra, Michael Holland @Debasish Saha for making sure all customer complaints, bugs and issues were ironed out. Design team Kanupriya Gupta and @Madhusudhan Shirsulla for delivering all creatives and videos on time. Each step brought us to our first milestone and while we have a very long way to go, we will pause here to celebrate all of us who have worked really hard to make this happen. There is no small or big victory. Truth is, the team works hard and shows up together all the time and that in itself is success. Here’s to more milestones and teamwork. #teamwork #leadership #brandstories

*The Power of Dressing Well* Elevating Your Corporate Sales Game In the dynamic world of corporate sales, where every interaction counts, one often-overlooked aspect can make a significant difference: dressing well. Beyond appearances, your attire plays a pivotal role in shaping perceptions, building confidence, and ultimately, driving success in the competitive landscape of big-brand sales. Investing in a good formal wardrobe can be a game-changer for your motivation and success in corporate sales. #Godrejproperties #corporate #realestate

Humour is one of the best window display themes and this takes it to another level. What other window themes do you think get people to notice and engage with a high street business? #oxfordstreet #visualmerchandising #selfridges #customerexperience #savethehighstreet #retaildesign #retailexperience

Is it vulgar to talk about price in the world of luxury? Paying a high price is perfectly acceptable when there's a real perceived value, whatever the field. But must we necessarily ruin ourselves and accept comfortable or even indecent margins to have the feeling of acquiring a luxury product? Does desirability necessarily mean inaccessibility? For my part, I've decided, without any hang-ups, to talk about prices and increased purchasing power. In fact, this subject is at the heart of our mission: to make diamonds accessible to as many people as possible. And yet, with no discounts or special offers, Black Friday is with us all year round. The secret to selling well? BUY WELL How do we do it? By enabling consumers to buy their diamonds at the source, directly from the diamantaires on the world's leading diamond exchanges. Apart from the financial aspect, it's important to remember that when buying a diamond, whether for an engagement ring or any other reason, trust, transparency, advice and the expertise of a professional are essential.
