Develop and deliver training programmes that enhance technical product knowledge and empower teams to create memorable, on-brand customer experiences.
Foster a culture of curiosity and learning, ensuring teams are equipped to represent the brand with authenticity and confidence.
3. Showroom Sales
Drive showroom performance through engaging customer journeys, compelling storytelling, and seamless service.
Support commercial objectives by connecting data insight with real-world experience, identifying opportunities for growth and conversion.
