Do your friends come to you for advice when they need to get
their look just right for an interview, a night out with friends,
or when they’re going out on a date?
If your answers to these questions are ‘yes, yes, and
yes!’ then you should register for our Diploma in Image
Consulting course. Then you could earn a living from doing
what you love and what you’re good at.
You’ve probably seen image consultants on TV transform
the looks of people who struggle when it comes to dressing
themselves suitably. You’ve seen the positive impact
that a new image can have on people. And you’ve seen
that there is a demand for image consultants that can make
a person’s outer body reflect their beauty inside.
Good or bad, society these days focuses heavily on appearance.
So many people get left behind because they have little or
no idea of what they should wear. And when they continually
struggle to dress right, they give up and don’t care
anymore, resulting in knock backs and damaged self-confidence.
That’s why they need help from lucky people like you
who have a natural flair for colours, shape, and most importantly
fashion. You can transform them from a blur in the background
to a walking masterpiece.
Do I have what it takes to become an image consultant?
Are you prepared to work through the good times as
well as the bad times to help your clients improve
their image? It won’t be as easy as taking a
quick trip into the local department store and abracadabra
a new person is born. Instead you’ll often have
to work hard to build your clients’ confidence
and self-worth.
Stay positive though… Remember, you’ll
be going shopping for a living! You’ll have
your finger on the pulse when it comes to new fashions
and trends. And you’ll know that you’ve
helped your clients work towards the lifestyle and
image that they’ve always wanted.
It’s your job to live by example. You’ll
have to be motivated to look great each and everyday.
Are you prepared to take up this new and exciting
challenge?
There is a demand
There are so many different reasons why potential clients
might need an image consultant.
They could want to have a more
professional image because they’ve got a new job.
Alternatively, they could be going
for an interview and need some style advice to help them
progress in their career.
They might want to find a partner,
and don’t have enough confidence in their appearance
to approach the person of their dreams.
Their friends might be constantly
telling them to make more effort, but they just don’t
know what suits them.
They might be stuck in the past and unable
to dress their age.
There are so many different fashion disasters out there.
You’ve seen them for yourself! You can help these people
and earn a living at the same time.
Our Diploma in Image Consulting course can teach you how
to market your business so that these potential clients know
how to contact you and use your services. Within a short amount
of time your diary could be chock full of people desperate
for your valuable opinion.
Why do I need to study an image consultancy course? I already
know about fashion.
You might already know how to dress well, but this doesn’t
necessarily mean you know how to persuade people to change
their ways.
You might know what colours suit weight, height, hair colour
and skin tone etc, but you need to have a broad range of styles
in your mind to be able to meet the image needs of each of
your clients. They’re all individuals with different
needs, wants and problems.
Additionally, you’ll need to know how to create a plan
for the client’s integration of their new look. They’ll
need easing in so that they get used to their new way of life
and know how to go out and buy the right things. Your job’s
not complete until you can safely say you’ve put the
client back on track to leading a happier existence.
The course will teach you how to do this and more. You’ll
learn how to conduct your first meeting with your client.
You’ll know how long to make it last, what to charge
and how to plan for the follow-up meetings.
Our distance learning course is unique
The Diploma in Image Consulting is different from other distance
learning courses. It’s written especially for people
who want to run their own business. People who like to take
command of their own destiny and who want to reap the rewards
of running the show.
You’ll find out how to set up your image consulting
business. You need to know about tax, business costs and creating
a business plan.
Plus, you’ll learn how to market your services so that
you capture the interest of the wide variety of potential
clients that are shouting out for people like you to make
a positive difference to their life.

"I

Just turn on the TV
Everyone's got an opinion on fashion. Some people
know their stuff, some people so obviously do not! You
just have to watch an episode of TV programs like 'What
Not To Wear' and 'Queer Eye For the Straight Guy' to
see that there are so many people in need the help of
an image consultant. It's not a passing trend, fashion
will always play a part in our lives. Fashions change
daily, so those without their finger on the pulse need
regular advice from those in the know. People of all
ages are looking to improve their image - from late
teens to early thirties, older single parents, to people
suffering a mid life crisis. Every age group's got people
struggling to find a look that suits them. There is
limitless demand for a person with the right skills.
And that person could be you.
You won’t just change their fashion sense
Many of your future clients won’t just have issues
when it comes to picking the right clothes off the fashion
rails. They’ll probably also lack confidence in themselves
and their appearance. How else do you think they got themselves
into this mess? It will be part of your job to help them take
pride in their appearance and to get them to believe in themselves.
This is where your people skills really come into play. You’ll
have to work on each and every client to make sure they have
strong belief in themselves and the way they look. You can
motivate them to see that they do look good as long as they
wear the right clothes.
