Can a lack of style actually hurt your business ?The answer is YES. When starting a business, one of the first things that needs to be done is BRANDING YOURSELF. Branding yourself does require a bit of STYLE and this does involve the way you DRESS - the things you like - the things that draw people to you etc. STYLE plays a HUGE role in branding and it's what attracts people to you so they eventually do business with you. Everyone has heard of DRESSING FOR SUCCESS and this can also play a huge role in your business. Sadly, in business we are often judged by our appearance. When we have job interviews - how we dress can often make or break the chances of us getting the job. For women - it can speak volumes in the corporate world. When a woman is dressed for success, she is often more confident and we all know that a perfect amount of confidence goes along way. Today there are so many ways to stay up-to-date on fashion and for those of us on a budget, there are multiple places to find stylish clothing without breaking the bank. I have always been a firm believer in DRESS HOW YOU WANT TO BE ADDRESSED. If we dress professional - we will treated to a certain degree....like a professional. If we dress in such a way that leaves little to the imagination - then you might be attracting more than you you wanted. We all remember those days when our parents ( mainly dad ) gave us heck when we wanted to leave the house with too much cleavage showing. The same applies to the business world and even more so. When a woman is dressed stylishly is shows that she takes care of herself and that she has a certain amount of self respect. Dressing stylish can really give us that extra boost of confidence too and let's face it- some days we NEED that. So whether you are showing up for a important interview with a potential new client or the job if a lifetime - DRESS FOR SUCCESS and you will CHARM them with a great first impression.
