7 misconceptions about home sales

1. I've never been a salesperson, so I can't be a VDI

You don't need any qualifications or experience to become a fashion consultant. At Elora, for example, we teach you the trade with a real 8-step training course to build your confidence and succeed in your business.

2. Being a home sales assistant means a lot of pressure

Quite the opposite: with VDI status, you're your own boss. You set your own targets, in line with the career path you've set for yourself. 0 obligations, 0 pressure!

3. Home selling is out of date

Whether we're talking about lingerie, cosmetics or kitchen and decoration accessories, we all have at least one experience to prove the cliché wrong. What better way to buy clothes than to try them on at home with your friends? It's the perfect time to try on new styles and new pieces!

4. Independent home sellers don't really know their products

Becoming an independent home seller is all about falling in love with a brand: products and values that you generally choose to represent exclusively. One of the secrets of a successful home shopping experience is to choose a brand whose lifestyle suits you and whose products have convinced you.

5. I'm shy, I can't be a VDI

What if you saw being a VDI as a challenge to overcome your shyness? Because becoming an Elora fashion consultant can also be an opportunity to push back the boundaries of your comfort zone and set yourself a personal development challenge!

6. I don't have much time

You can become a fashion consultant either full-time or part-time to supplement your income... it all depends on how much time you have to devote to the activity! You can organise your days and weeks as you wish: a made-to-measure schedule based on the rhythm of your life.

7. I don't have many people to introduce my products to

Another misconception! When you're a VDI, you don't just present your products to your gang of friends. On the contrary: you learn to approach new prospects. A new exercise that quickly becomes fun:
