When I joined Luxury Presence back in May, I knew I was stepping into a new opportunity, but I didn’t realize just how transformative it would be. From the very start, I’ve been surrounded by a team of leaders who are not only accessible but genuinely invested in the success of both their teams and our clients. Luxury Presence has shown me the power of what happens when good employees connect with great leadership. The support and guidance I’ve received from my manager, Emma Anderson, have been nothing short of excellent. Her hands-on approach, thoughtful insights, and willingness to walk me through the nuances of client success at LP have accelerated my growth in ways I hadn’t experienced before. It’s clear that when managers are truly engaged, it creates an environment where employees can thrive—and when employees thrive, clients win. But it doesn’t stop there. Our Digital Client Success team is genuinely such a cool crew, and I have already learned so much from them. Big shoutout to Marissa Delmonico, Carolina R., Maria Lamus, Tess Harris, and Garrett Brown for making my first three months at Luxury Presence so stellar. This culture of accessibility and collaboration has fostered a sense of unity that’s rare to find. It’s a place where everyone is aligned, working together towards the same goal: delivering exceptional value to our clients. Because when our clients win, we win. On a personal note, being able to combine my real estate marketing background and high energy has been incredibly fulfilling. I am thrilled to have been recognized as the Client Success Showstopper for Q2 2024. It’s simply awesome to have a team that celebrates its members the way LP does. A big thank you to Meg D. for taking the time to send this to me. Leadership starts at the top, and Meg sets the tone for the entire team. 👊 This experience has reinforced my belief that with the right leadership, the possibilities are endless. Good employees paired with great leaders create a ripple effect of success that benefits everyone involved. I’m proud to be part of a team that exemplifies this and excited to continue this journey with Luxury Presence. 💼✨

Predictively, we knew this would become a problem... The sales associate is the most important part of a retail experience, yet retaining great talent is becoming impossible. Being underpaid certainly contributes to this, as well as the brutal retail hours and strict on-the-floor rules that make being a sales associate seem dehumanizing. To add fuel to the fire, profit-obsessed executives are completely out of touch with the changing culture of the sales floor, the needs of associates, the value of trusted peer interactions/influence, and the idea of community. (Could this be what happens when we overemphasize profit over people? Eventually, profit suffers.) Associates collect some of the most valuable data about customers, motivations, behaviors, and even products, yet that information is often lost between the greeting and the point of sale. There is little to nothing inspiring about being a sales associate anymore. Being mistreated, standing on your feet all day, and barely making minimum wage while toddlers are becoming millionaires while playing with toys on YouTube is not the American dream retailers are pretending it is. The retail store is boring and lacks any of the advancements and nuances that the next generation is used to being immersed in. Really talented stylists and product aficionados can virtually shop and create lookbooks while working a job where they feel appreciated. This is hard to compete with in retail. While we acknowledge that retail is transactional, the culture of retail is antiquated and primarily benefits shareholders, not the stakeholders who drive the business. I spent many years working in retail during high school and college, and not much has changed. In fact, my expectations when going into stores are dismal. I can't emphasize this enough: balancing stakeholder (associates) and shareholder values is imperative to reviving the currently impaired retail environment. I haven't seen many experts address this problem with an actual solution. There has to be a top-down change and an understanding of the keys to changing the culture and providing actual solutions, not just longer breaks or a small percentage increase in employee discounts. We need a real overhaul of luxury retail. I have a solution, do you?

🤔 Can senior living learn from the Stanley cup trend? 🔥If you have followed social media lately, you will recognize the now infamous 40 oz Stanley tumbler. At two different Targets near me, people were lined up at the door waiting to get in to buy the latest collaboration cup between Target and Starbucks. 🥤If you didn’t know, you’d think this was a new brand gone viral, when in reality, the company is over 100 years old. They simply shifted their marketing approach to women and added some pastel colors to the lineup of an already established product. Sales were expected to reach $750 million this past year. 🏠 What if we took our existing senior living product and changed how we promote it? What if we changed our target audience? Could we have people lined up waiting to pick their apartment and move in? Our competitor isn’t the other senior living down the street. Our competitor is the perception of people who think they are being put away in a home to die. No wonder occupancy across the country is struggling. Who wants to make that move?? 💡I’ve seen lots of ideas on changing the focus of benefits of moving in from care to something else. But we still continue to talk basic services and amenities on our websites and on tours. I challenge you to have the conversation with your team. I certainly am going to!

I enjoy these posts.
