"We usually set a budget for each product group.I'm always interested in what brands people wear, it helps me determine the approximate budget for clothes"
"Customers can send photos or call in with a video to show how the clothes look on them, if they don't like a particular model I find something similar from another brand."
"It is very annoying to have a customer who orders a service and does not want to give information. When there is a lack of information and you don't know what to do with people"
"I usually present collections in the form of presentation with a guide how to use it. A presentation is something a person pays money for"

24-38 years old, with an income
