Fashion is a growing industry that not many individuals focus on or embrace. Nejla Renee's desire to empower men and women to accept their fashion voice is one of the primary goals of her own personal styling/consulting business.
With technology on a constant rise, Renee utilizes several innovative processes to conduct her business. Her outreach to clients goes as far as social media can go. Her sessions provide easy, convenient, one-on-one consultations which are difficult to find these days given that most communication is done virtually. Instead of being confined to the limits of social media and technology, Renee works hand-in-hand with her clients to ensure they are attended to, emotionally and physically. Renee also partners with other brand moguls to deliver the best fashionable experience one can offer.
Renee inspires many young women to take on leadership in today's society. Unfortunately, such actions are often shunned upon. However, with the help of business owners like Renee, inspiration is the key to showing all that anything is possible. For instance, "I had a client who worked in architecture and felt like she hit a roadblock in her career. She felt like one of the things that was really holding her back was her lack of self-esteem and confidence. She felt that she was not dressing for her job," Renee explained. By working with Renee, she was able to gain her self-esteem/confidence back, tweak her wardrobe, advance her career and was named top 40 women under 40 years old in her profession. In this example, she shows us that she helped make a difference in one of her client's life by inspiring her to differentiate herself from others and embrace it.
Overall, Renee promotes great well-being for the individual, provides practical education for all, and encourages gender equality. By encouraging people to change their fashion lifestyle, Renee helps increase their self-esteem and confidence that was formerly lost. This also ties into Renee teaching these individuals how to be a successful fashion mogul, how to follow the latest fashion trends, and which trends are best to follow. This general education can either make a positive or negative outcome on one's appearance in life. Lastly, Renee encourages gender equality by proving that women can be successful in the workplace as well. She empowers women to continue doing great in society and fighting against the odds. Unlike some other fashion consulting businesses that only focus on female branding, Renee welcomes male clients too, further promoting gender equality. This makes all the difference in the reviews she receives and the impact she makes on every one's lives.
With the success rate she has earned, Renee continues to expand her client book. With ongoing recommendations, Renee is constantly busy, trying to make her business successful as well as to build relationships with old and new clients. With one of her main focuses of empowering women, Renee receives a wide response of women clients who make appointments with her several times a year for a new season update. These women are very content with her service, therefore explaining her high ratings on Yelp. In this case, one can say: happy clients, happy business.
Renee gives the community a new way of life. Her fashion advice helps them feel more confident in several areas of life such as the workplace, home environment, and leisure life. She empowers these individuals to make a difference in their wardrobes and embrace changes. In turn, her advice also helps individuals maintain their well-being and promote good feelings.
