Course description

Course overview

Growing numbers of men are realizing that their personal image is an important way for them to market themselves in both business and leisure and to improve their confidence and express their personality. But many also do not have the experience or the time to be able to do this well for themselves. Enter the professional men's image consultant!

During this course, you will learn how to work with male clients to help them develop their own personal style. This can be very rewarding, as you help your clients try new styles, update their look to match their status or stage in life, and develop pride in their appearance.

The course covers all the technical skills and processes you need to offer consulting services, as well as training in how to market yourself to potential clients and build your business.
