・Customer service, sales, and order placement
Fine communication and an open mind
However, I believe that I was able to gain the trust of customers and sales staff by connecting them with each other and building a relationship with them in a detailed manner, which has led to successful results.
I also value the cooperation and circle of those around me. When making decisions, I always try to consult with my superiors and colleagues as well as my own will, and I value the spirit of open-mindedness (acceptance and disclosure), which leads to a relationship of trust through open and honest opinions at times.
Understanding the customer's needs
In both select stores and luxury brands, the majority of customers value added value.
In order to respond to such requests, we have been making efforts to make proposals and solve problems half a step ahead of our customers by learning the merits of the products we handle every day, studying product knowledge that is not included in manuals, and gathering information on product shortages, product additions, and so on. We have been making efforts to provide customers with proposals and problem-solving half a step ahead of time.
Although the products are the same no matter which store the customer purchases them from, I have been able to personalize my approach to the customer through interviews to find out why the customer chose our store and to incorporate the customer's lifecycle and lifestyle into my approach, leading to conversion into a customer.
I hope to contribute to the development of the company at a new stage by utilizing my work experience and maintaining a high awareness of human mindset and self-improvement.
