The first opportunity to train to become a world traveling personal stylist with the Sterling Style Academy in 2011 takes place in Sydney, Australia from\u00a0February 28\u00a0-March 9, and continues in Hong Kong from March 14 – 18.<\/a><\/p>\n

Many aspiring personal shoppers who contact the Sterling Style Academy ask, “What is the benefit of training in two different cities?”<\/strong> And the answers are numerous.\u00a0 The more world traveling experience a new personal stylist or personal shopper has, the more culturally well-rounded this personal shopper’s skills are.\u00a0 Being able to speak to the preferences of different clients from all parts of the globe makes a personal stylist’s services that much more marketable to a variety of clients in a variety of locations.<\/p>\n

\"\"Personal shoppers with this caliber of personal style training are able to charge a higher hourly or daily rate<\/a> than personal shoppers without world traveling experience.\u00a0 Further diversifying your awareness and experience working with different cultures, all while incorporating this experience into a cohesive look and style representative of your client will make your services that much more valuable to world traveling professionals and socialites.<\/p>\n

Consider the cultural aspects of training in globally renowned cities<\/a> such as Sydney and Hong Kong.\u00a0 While Asian and Australian cultures are quite different in values, training in both markets is a great opportunity to globally diversify your personal styling skill set and to learn how to work with clients of different values, backgrounds, and life or career ambitions.<\/p>\n

\"\"Australia represents western-influenced values and cultural similarities to markets like the United Kingdom and the United States, while in proximity to Southeast Asia and Indonesia. \u00a0 Sydney is the place to build a solid foundation regarding the technical aspects of style<\/strong>. Australians are generally interested in learning about the right colors that suit them and how to dress according to their body type as well as personal style.\u00a0 It’s the ideal place to learn the principles of design as they relate to personal styling.<\/p>\n

Australia is a booming market for the personal shopping industry as many people are interested in hiring image consultants.\u00a0 Both British and Australian prospective clients value entertainment and invest more on housing and real estate, and Australians are more prone to purchasing luxury items.\u00a0 Training in a market with this type of high demand is a great experience as you are able to see all the aspects of the industry and the various services you can offer.\u00a0 The Australian dollar is also strong against the US dollar, making Sydney a valuable location to invest in personal stylist training.<\/p>\n

\"\"Hong Kong is the ideal place to learn how to become a personal shopper in Asia<\/strong>.\u00a0 With so many luxury and mid-market stores at your disposal and high rise shopping centers throughout the city, Hong Kong offers the perfect opportunity to master the services offered by a personal shopper.\u00a0 Hong Kong’s culture is conducive for this type of profession, as Asians in general value brand names at a good value, allowing you the opportunity to position your expertise to be of value to busy executives and affluent shoppers.<\/p>\n

In addition to offering world class shopping opportunities, Hong Kong, like other major cities including Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei, Singapore, Bangkok and Jakarta,\u00a0 is an epicenter of international business.\u00a0 Training in a city where corporate values and executive presence dominate the wardrobe values of so many working professionals, will provide personal stylists with a competitive edge in the world of corporate image consulting.<\/p>\n

Training in multiple business and fashion capitals<\/a> gives personal shoppers a competitive edge that just cannot be learned by studying at home or online<\/a>.\u00a0 Personal stylists aspiring to work with globe traveling professionals and affluent clients must be world travelers themselves.\u00a0 Register for the Sterling Style Academy’s World Traveler(TM) Program taking place in Sydney and Hong Kong beginning March 9, 2011.\u00a0 Students must enroll by January 17, 2011<\/a>, in order to train with other personal shoppers from around the world<\/a> in Sydney and Hong Kong.<\/p>\n
