Overview

How to be a Personal Shopper

Having a passion for shopping and fashion, and getting paid to apply that passion, may seem like a dream too good to be true. As the fashion and retail industries develop and evolve their products and services, so too do the ways in which people shop.

Not everyone enjoys shopping and others may be unable to shop for themselves due to their age or a disability. A personal shopper uses their fashion knowledge and customer service skills to select the correct items for their customer. Being a personal shopper is no longer just for the wealthy elite, even the average person can benefit from the services a personal shopper provides.

Being a personal shopper can be a fun challenge. Perhaps you have previous retail experience and would like to apply your skills to a new role? Your experience could lead to a new business opportunity helping people feel confident in what they wear without spending more than they can afford.

During this course, you will learn what a personal shopper is and how they differ from other personal assistant jobs.

Next, you will learn about the various skills required, what the job involves, how to pick a niche, and how to build a personal shopper business.

Finally, you will learn about the benefits and common challenges that personal shoppers deal with on a day-to-day basis.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
