Fashion Design

Design Lead-level less important - Junior
PefectlyFitting - New York, United States

A start-up company seeks out a talented forward-
thinking designer to bring some innovation to an
otherwise traditional and often stale apparel
segment.

The business was born from the vision of a
strategic planner who has worked in the NYC
advertising, marketing and new product
development industry for over a decade. The
business is destined for success as it's based on
a critical gap in the market. but needs a designer
with the imagination to make it happen.

An interest in bringing a new sense of style,
sensibility and substance to the world of
undergarments (bras, et al) is a must. Number of
years experience is of no concern, but ability to
innovate and technical skills are critical.

Thanks so very much!

Sales Representative

Sales - Sales Representative/Stylist - Junior - Commission
STAKD, Inc. - Chicago, United States

STAKD INC. (www.stakd.com/new) is for women who love boots, and don’t want a trade-off between style and comfort! STAKD provides custom, handmade women’s boots made to the exact specifications of the client. Our clients have the ability to choose the toe shape, heel style, heel height, leather color and exact fit through measurements. The boots are “designed BY them, and made FOR them.”

Job Description:
STAKD Inc. is seeking professional and stylish self-starters to add to their sales team to meet an aggressive sales plan.

If you are energetic, stylish and can be creative in leveraging your network and marketing ideas, we have a career opportunity for you!

67% of women say they are frustrated with boots. Our clients are women who have trouble finding boots that fit, or have specific fashion/design preferences. Your job is to find those women and help them design their PERFECT boots at an affordable price!!

Location: Work from home and host events around the city
Hours: Set your own hours. You manage your time to meet your sales objectives. For example: you may host a trunk show at an office building or spa during the day, host a “boot party” at a friends house at night, and drop off marketing material around town.
Compensation: Unlimited earning potential, no cap on commission. This is a commission-based job with great income potential. You could easily make $750 in one evening selling just 10 pairs of boots. There is no initial investment or inventory for you.
Perks: You get 45% discount off of boots initially and receive 1 free pair if you sell 10 boots your first month (we want you to have your own pair of course!!)
Healthcare: There are no healthcare benefits for this part-time position
Support: You’ll enjoy direct access to proven marketing and selling tools and centralized marketing to support you in your city.
Job requirements: The job requires establishing a customer base through a focus on marketing and customer service. Sales Representative, called “Stylists”, will be responsible for generating their own leads in addition to following up on leads generated from the website. Stylists will be given direction in marketing, but will need to be self-motivated and creative in their sales; for example, hosting boot parties or trunk shows, one on one sales and advertising at local boutiques and spas, getting referrals from podiatrist, personal shoppers, etc.

Once clients have been identified, Stylists will help the clients pick the design elements (toe shape and heel style, heel height, leather color) and take 9 measurements of the client’s feet and legs. The order form will then be processed; boots will be made and shipped within 6-8 weeks to the Stylist. The Stylist will hand deliver boots to ensure a high level of customer service. If the client is unsatisfied, the Stylist will be required to mediate and help solve all issues. Typically, the client will order more boots if they are happy with the first pair.

Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree
Entrepreneurial drive
Passion for fashion!! Current fashion sense
Experience networking
Some prior sales experience and/or customer service
Ability to work with and relate to clients
Highly motivated and organized
