Why Does One Decide to Pursue a Career as an Image Consultant, Personal Stylist, or Personal Shopper? See What the Sterling Style Academy’s Training Director, Michelle T. Sterling, has to say about it.
When people ask me why do you do what you do and do people really make money doing it? The answer is because I LOVE what I do with an absolute passion and yeah, I make a living doing it too! Now just because I’m passionate about what I do doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot of hard work, round-the-clock projects, and innovation going on – not to mention the need for execution. My career started out, just as yours will too, putting all the time, effort, and energy into networking, creating strategic alliances, finding my niche – ultimately all to market myself and get my name out there.
In a relatively young and new industry such as image consulting there is so much opportunity there to create a name and a niche for yourself, however it all really comes down to how much do you want to be an image consultant, personal stylist and personal shopper. And are you going to take the initiative to make it happen? Ask yourself what motivates you to want to become an image consultant and what are my gifts? By clearly being able to define your natural talents and believing in yourself, you too can become one of our rock star, go-getting graduates from the Sterling Style Academy.
To be successful, you need focus, determination, and a plan!

And we are constantly updating our curriculum to bring you training modules that represent current fashion, while also teaching you how to mix haute couture with high street fashion.
So what is really missing from the Sterling Style Academy education? YOU. You are the only one missing from taking advantage of this international opportunity to travel the world, experience new places, cultures, and shop! This opportunity is a dream come true for most fashionistas. So follow your heart, to follow your dreams, to find your true calling.
I can sincerely tell you that there is no other career more befitting to my life, personality, tastes, and interests than becoming an image consultant, personal stylist, and personal shopper. I wake up every morning feeling fortunate and grateful that I fulfill my life’s passion on a daily basis. Can you say the same thing? Well what are you waiting for?

Learn How to Ignite Your Inner Passion to Reach Your True Career Potential as an Image Consultant, Personal Stylist & Personal Shopper
At the Sterling Style Academy we receive many calls from students who are interested in becoming an image consultant, personal stylist, personal shopper or fashion stylist. Although we have many informational videos on YouTube telling you about the industry and how it is a growing profession, we know that our prospective students still have their doubts and that their significant others always question the viability of this industry and if you will make money being an image consultant, personal shopper, and personal stylist.
The key to anyone’s success as an image consultant, personal stylist, or personal shopper, and more importantly, as an entrepreneur are the following:
1) PASSION. Only with a love for this industry will you truly succeed. You may choose a niche or direction you wish to take upon completion of our certification program, however fundamentally you must have a true love for image, fashion, and style.
2) DRIVE AND MOTIVATION. These are the next key components in order to become a successful image consultant, personal stylist, and personal shopper. Becoming a success doesn’t happen overnight. It requires hard work, persistence, consistency, and perseverance not to give up even when the going gets tough. Any business owner goes through their business ups and downs – therefore it is important to have faith, keep calm and carry on.
3) CREATIVITY AND INSPIRATION. This is the next necessary component for success. Not only do you need to be creative in your styling abilities and be able to work with clients to dress them according to their personal style, you must also be creative in the manner in which you approach business. In order to become successful, you need to be able to promote yourself, your business, and your abilities to the best of your capacity. This requires you to think out of the box, be flexible, and most importantly be able to take risks. Those who succeed will always diversify their businesses to meet the current economic demands. And when creativity meets inspiration, you have success.
4) SELF-BELIEF AND SELF-CONFIDENCE. Believing in yourself is the last key component in order to be successful. If you truly want to build a business as an image consultant, personal stylist, and personal shopper, you have to really want it like nothing else you’ve ever wanted, believe that you can have it, and allow the universe to open doors before you. Every opportunity becomes a business opportunity to foster relationships, educate people regarding your services, and attain new clients. If you are confident in your own abilities, others will have confidence in you and your capabilities. If you believe that you can be successful and never doubt yourself for more than a second, you will be successful and you will develop the career of your dreams.
At the Sterling Style Academy, we not only set you up for success with our Sales, Marketing, Business Brand Identity Launch Kit, we also provide you with teleclasses in order to grow and build your businesses. To learn more about how you can become more successful, we invite you to purchase the book, Success Simplified, co-authored by Michelle T.

Image Consulting, Personal Styling & Shopping – The Fastest Growing, Upcoming Fashion Career in Brazil, Russia, India and China
Looking fashionable, wearing a multitude of designer brands, and dressing to impress has been a growing and sustaining cultural interest in countries like Brazil, Russia, India and China, as well as other countries like Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, Indonesia, Egypt, Angola, Bangladesh, Mexico, Columbia, Poland, Turkey and South Africa. GCC countries, such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain, have long adopted the notion of dressing only in brands. It’s not uncommon that you will see someone wearing Louis Vuitton or Chanel handbags, with Hermes or Dolce & Gabanna belts, paired with Christian Louboutin or Gucci shoes, and Roberto Cavali or Armani clothing. However the big question is: Does it all look well put together?! Let’s be honest, sometimes it does however often times it doesn’t. While these non-GCC countries have the fastest growing middle class, not all of them know how to project class and need an image consultant or personal stylist to show them how to exude celebrity – type status.
Being wealthy versus actually knowing how to look wealthy do not always go hand in hand. Many of the up and coming middle class of
Brazil, Russia, India, and China, as well as in Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea, Indonesia, Egypt, Angola, Bangladesh, Mexico, Poland, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and South Africa have money, however they do not necessarily know how to project wealth, status, and prominence – although they want to. Achieving a look of prominence and prestige is more than just putting a lot of logo brands together such as a Gucci logo fedora, Louis Vuitton monogram logo belt, with a Dolce & Gabanna logo tank top, J Brand jeans, and Christian Dior logo sandals. Could you imagine your head spinning while looking at all those logos? I’m certain you’ve actually already seen that look in some of your shopping malls in Moscow, Mumbai, Shanghai, and Dubai. However, projecting an image of wealth and prestige is achieved by how you tastefully put together an outfit to create a visually pleasing, cohesive look. The keyword is tastefully. And if you are actually able to achieve this look, you may actually have people come up to you and say (or think) you look expensive when you might just be wearing a Zara jacket, H&M top, and Mango jeans, along with your designer jewelry, shoes, and handbag. Often times perception can become reality and that is what you can learn to do for yourself and for others at the Sterling Style Academy.
The Sterling Style Academy trains top notch image consultants, personal stylist, and personal shoppers to make the inexpensive look expensive. Women and men from all over the world choose to attend one of our 10 worldwide training programs in Miami, New York, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Sydney, London, Hong Kong, Dubai, and Mumbai, as well as Online. Fashionistas from Mexico, Columbia, Brazil and from Europe (Russia), often choose to attend training in Miami or New York. Those from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Turkey, Egypt, Angola, Bangladesh, South Africa, Nigeria, India, Iran, Pakistan, and Russia choose to either attend our programs in Dubai, Mumbai, London, or New York. While aspiring image consultants and personal stylists from Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, South Korea, Indonesia, and Malaysia choose to either attend our San Francisco or World Traveler Program in Sydney and Hong Kong or in London and New York. The image consultant training choices at the Sterling Style Academy are endless and the earnings potential as a pioneer in your own country are amazing as well especially when you see how well our students from fast-growing, developing nations have made an imprint in their societies as credible professionals who are often featured in magazines and newspapers, or have their own TV shows. These Sterling Style Academy graduates are not just fashion professionals, they are upcoming celebrity stylists like Ameriga Giannone in Chile and Maria Cristina Acquaroni in Guatemala. Now is also a great time to invest in image consultant and personal stylist training at the Sterling Style Academy as the U.S. Dollar is weak against many other currencies making our training program “cheap & chic” from your currency perspective.
