In a surprising twist, Apple is now training its retail staff to offer customers fashion advice, as reported by a tech news outlet. Yes, you read that right! This initiative is part of the anticipated Apple Watch launch, set to happen next month. Over the next couple of weeks, Apple employees—those familiar faces in their signature blue tees, often spotted with iPhones around their necks—will learn how to elevate their customers’ style by recommending specific watch and band colors based on their lifestyle indicators.
Understanding the Apple Watch
Now, let’s break this down a bit. The Apple Watch is priced between $349 and a jaw-dropping $17,000. It comes in three distinct styles: an aluminum sport version, a sleek stainless steel model, and a luxurious 18-karat gold edition for those who want to splurge. With a variety of bands available, this is where the fashion advice comes into play. Employees will be expected to engage customers with questions like, “How do you envision using your Apple Watch?” “Which style resonates with your personal flair?” and “Do you lean towards leather or metal bands?”
Metal bands? Seriously? Are we expecting a concert ticket to come with that? It’s baffling to think about the price tag.
Customer Personas and Style Recommendations
If these questions weren’t strange enough, Apple has also developed several customer personas to help employees gauge individual styles. This allows them to make comments like, “I can see you have a vibrant style; the Pink Sport band would be a perfect match for you.”
Is it just me or does this feel a bit invasive? While the idea of a makeover is appealing, as a long-time admirer of Apple, I find myself raising an eyebrow at this approach. On a lighter note, maybe this opens up the opportunity for fashion icons to start coding. Does anyone know if Anna prefers XML or HTML?
