Work-From-Home Job Spotlight: Image Consultant


Each Thursday, I’m highlighting a work-from-home job or business.

Job Description: An image consultant is one who helps clients develop a wardrobe of clothing and accessories that fits their lifestyle and person.

Education: None necessary.

Skills: The ability to help clients select a flattering wardrobe for their lifestyles.

Job outlook: The job outlook will depend on your location, with more urban and metropolitan areas having more of a potential client base than rural settings. As with any service-related business, the successful ones are those that have a clearly defined mission and customer base.

Possible employers: Network at a variety of functions, including charity and business events, to hand out business cards to garner interest.

Preparation: Join the Association of Image Consultants International for training and networking opportunities.

Get your foot in the door: Ask an image consultant if you can tag along during a client visit to see what this job would entail. Talk with personal shoppers at department stores for advice.

Until next time,

Sarah
