I am a business coach that teaches from the experiences I am having in my store TODAY - not from a few years ago. Everything we teach here at BOSS is relevant and cutting edge because we are keeping our finger on the current bridal culture.
When hosting 13 1:1âs with my boutique staff today, I was reminded that there are truly four objections come up constantly when bridal shops try to hire, and each one has a real fixâŠ
If youâre trying to hire and train top tier talent for the upcoming busy season, here are 4 objections to look out for and build systems to fix.
1. COMPENSATION: If a candidate is comparing a flat hourly wage against driving for a rideshare app per se, hourly alone will lose every time. The fix isn't guessing at a higher number, it's knowing your margins well enough to know what you can actually afford to pay in bonus or commission on top of a solid base.
2. SCHEDULING: A lot of candidates say they want flexibility, but what they're usually describing is control over their life, not random hours. A set schedule, the same three or four days every week, sells better than flexibility does, because it lets someone build real plans around it instead of waiting on a text.
3. PEOPLE FATIGUE: Some candidates are genuinely worn out from working with the public all day. Others left a remote job specifically because they missed people and just haven't found their way back yet. The fix is screening for which one you're actually talking to, not assuming everyone wants the same thing.
4. STEPPING STONE MINDSET: Unless you give them a real reason to, lots of candidates might see your position as a stepping stone assignment on their way to their ârealâ career. The truth is- bridal can be a real, sustaining, and even lucrative career for the right candidates - but you have to know how to set your systems up to be so.
BOSS contains classes, downloadable templates, and access to Mindi as your full in coach so that you can set up all 4 of these scaleable systems above before busy season begins. We arenât going to attract big players with small systems!
