Improved customer service by efficiently handling queries and complaints. Along with aiding people in locating merchandise, and ensuring it was delivered to them safely.
Assisted customers with product selection for optimal satisfaction. One example included helping someone choose the correct trousers through the use of a measuring tool to accurately measure the seam. Another example includes helping someone choose the correct size and colour of dishes for an event.
Fostered a welcoming store environment by maintaining clean and well-organised displays. Additionally, the clothing on the rack was maintained in size order to help customers find the correct size they needed. Also, I initiated small talk and maintained a consistent smile.
Offered personalised shopping advice to enhance customer experiences.
