Kathryn Clarke 27, a graduate of Newcastle University, has launched an exclusive Image Consultancy studio in the heart of Newcastle.
Offering a range of services to both private and corporate clients, Positive Impressions based at the retail development at the Forth Arches, opened its doors in late 2010. Since then, Kathryn has already undertaken a number of client consultations in the luxurious, purpose designed studio.
The vision behind the Positive Impressions studio is to offer customers an experience similar to spending the day at a spa or salon, where they can relax and treat themselves to something different.
Having spotted the timely opportunity to start up her own business, Kathryn used the passion she had for style and colour consultation from a young age and built her business plan around it.
Speaking of this enthusiasm, Kathryn said,
“I received a colour analysis consultation as a gift from a family friend who worked as an image consultant and I enjoyed every minute of it. I am now a firm believer that the right outfit can make you feel fantastic, look great and also give you the inner confidence to succeed in both your personal and professional life.”
Kathryn, a former recruitment consultant has been using her expertise by sharing her knowledge of business dress codes to corporate clients in addition to those wishing to find a smart image when entering the competitive jobs market. Services for corporate clients are bespoke packages designed to meet individual requirements.
Positive Impressions also offers colour analysis, style consultations for men and women, cosmetics consultations, wardrobe planning, personal shopping, corporate image and colour and style parties.
Speaking of the success of Positive Impressions to date, Kathryn said,
“I hope that I can continue to offer my services to those who would like to experience the benefits of image consultancy. Clients have visited me for many reasons, from wanting to increase their confidence, hoping to be more economical when selecting a new wardrobe, or to simply treat themselves.
“In five years time my aim is that Positive Impressions will be a business with a strong reputation for offering an excellent service and that it is well established and respected locally. “
Kathryn is a Registered Affiliate of the Federation of Image Professionals International. She is also an Accredited First Impressions Consultant and works as part of their national network of consultants.
