Question 4

Yes. Maison Dossier includes a lookbook builder that lets you curate outfit selections for each client and share them via private links. Clients can view their lookbooks from any device without needing an account. Track when lookbooks are viewed and use them as a selling and consultation tool.

Question 5

How do I track client purchases as a personal stylist?

Accepted Answer

Maison Dossier logs every client purchase with item details, amount, date, and store. It automatically calculates lifetime value for each client so you can identify your highest-value relationships and tailor your service accordingly. View purchase history per client or across your entire practice from the dashboard.

Question 6

What client information should a personal stylist track?

Accepted Answer

A personal stylist should track: body measurements (bust, waist, hips, inseam, shoulder width), color season (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter), body shape (hourglass, pear, apple, rectangle, inverted triangle), style preferences (classic, modern, bohemian, minimalist), preferred brands, budget range, lifestyle needs, and special occasion requirements. Maison Dossier provides structured fields for all of these plus notes, photos, and bridal-specific details.

Question 7

Do I need software to run a personal styling business?

Accepted Answer

Once you have more than a handful of clients, spreadsheets and notes become unmanageable. A purpose-built system like Maison Dossier keeps every client's measurements, preferences, appointments, lookbooks, and purchase history organized and accessible. It also automates follow-up reminders so you never miss a birthday, seasonal wardrobe refresh, or post-event check-in — which directly drives repeat business and referrals.
