clothing
We do the whole embrodered company look here aswell, all in black now and we have bright coloured tee shirts for the summer.
At this time of year the staff wear - under tee-shirts, longsleeved shirts, jumpers and light jackets if needed. All topped of with Santa hats with "Say Happy Christmas with flowers from 1800 MyFlorist on the rim" - good craic and it keeps your head warm!.
Our female staff are given fitted shirts and jackets to make them feel more confertable, the guys also wear jackets when it comes to deliveries and christmas trees. All our supplied clothing is embrodidered with Names, shop phone number etc etc.
The cost of doign this is high, so the staff all pay 50% towards the cost, and they can be as much as they want (if they want 3 jackets no problem!), they are all responsable for the hygiene and general appearance of their clothes and 'tatty' uniform is not accepted.
In referance to the reply earlier on girls looking well in a shop and you would be more likely to spend more, I would belive this and I think that all staff (guys and girls) must have neat appearance, nails cleaned, no jewellery, hair styled, fresh breath etc as this is the image your customer wants. In summer the guys and girls wear chino shorts , which are both smart and comfortable.
Image is key to everything.
