VDI without paying for a Starter Kit

Our VDI starter kit

Starter kits are essential tools for home sellers, especially at Elora.

A sales support tool

The starter kit is a sales support tool. At Elora, it takes the form of a whole range of free aids (training aids and material aids) to help you get your business off the ground:

• without stress ;
• without creating an imbalance in the household budget, because you don't have to invest your personal savings in a large number of products for sale;
• without delay, because from the outset you have everything you need to carry out your new duties.

In short: no investment. All you need to bring to your new professional adventure is your talent, your good humour and, of course, your attraction to the world of fashion.

The contents of our starter kit

The Home Sales Consultant Starter Kit is made up of different elements.

The Elora collections: loans for every consultant

At Elora, we have one watchword: to do everything we can to ensure that sales consultants can do their job in the best possible conditions. This means, first and foremost,access to the VDI profession without having to pay for a start-up kit. Sales assistants do not invest their own money in products to be sold. They benefit from collection loans for the 1st and 2nd seasons of business.

They can also earn collections based on sales over a given period.

New stores are given the entire collection to start with. A smaller collection would not give them the best chance. That's why we bet on our new recruits by offering them the same collection as the best sellers.

This means that sales advisers can start their business with complete peace of mind! They have everything they need to organise their first home sales in the company of their prospects. This is the ideal way to get started as a VDI.

A kit with basic equipment

As part of the gain formula, a welcome kit is offered. It consists of a host of accessories that can be used to improve the day-to-day lives of our advisers.

Clothing accessories include :

• a set of hangers ;
• a set of clip hangers
• two bag covers;

There's also stationery and office equipment to immerse you in the world of Elora:

• a diary ;
• a pencil case and pen ;
• an Elora badge ;
• a computer sleeve.

And last but not least, all advisers, regardless of the package they choose, have access to a range of tools and services, such as :

• an intranet site
• a personalised online shop
• communication tools such as catalogues, flyers, posters, visuals, Youtube videos and themed Powerpoint presentations. So you can communicate effectively with your customers.

In short, all the ingredients are there for home-based sales consultants to get their business off to an easy start. They can become VDIs without paying for their starter kit, and start as soon as they're ready. Commission is yours!

Virtually tailor-made support, the other side of the starter kit

Each sales consultant receives support at the start of her business and throughout her VDI career with Elora. It complements the Elora starter kit and is also available without any financial investment. All you need is some free time.

At Elora, we have the time to look after you because our network is deliberately smaller than 1500 Personal Stylists.

What does this mean in practice?

Elora has thought of everything when it comes to training. New consultants receive training in key areas such as direct sales and sales coaching. These courses are run by regional managers and trainers with solid knowledge of fashion and sales.

But it doesn't stop there. Consultants wishing to supplement and broaden their knowledge have access to distance learning courses. These cover a range of topics which, taken together, give each home sales consultant all the tools she needs to run her business successfully and thrive in her new role. From brand history and sales techniques to presenting new collections, preparing hostesses and selling during promotional periods, nothing is left to chance.

PS: To make our distance learning courses accessible to as many people as possible, they are offered in a wide variety of time slots. This offers organisational flexibility, which can be highly appreciated by sales advisers with children, for example.
