Personal Shoppers at J.Crew

I was very frustrated yesterday when I received my Fall catalog and learned that it was useless as I could not order anything from it. I immediately emailed my personal shopper at my local J.Crew store. He is a great asset to the me and the company, always reassuring me that he will find my items and searching the entire country for them. The response I got from him this morning is below.
Hey Leigh!
Great to hear from. Our Fall Collection comes in on Thursday so I will make sure I keep an eye for these items. I will e-mail Thursday with what we will have. Have a great weekend.
Matt
It’s great to know that new arrivals from the Fall Collection will be in stores. I really do thank Matt for that heads up. I can’t wait to try the new clothes on and provide a preview. I am not sure if my store will have all the items I want, as most of them are J.Crew Collection item pieces.
I think my relationship with Matt is one of the best aspects of shopping at J.Crew. He knows me on a first name basis and is very friendly whenever I shop at J.Crew. I am not just a customer to him. We always chat about current events and new happenings in each of our lives. I feel like this has enhanced my shopping experience and I know I can rely on him to help me find items and put together great J.Crew outfits.
During the holidays last year, he even sent me a thank-you note with a J.Crew gift card tucked inside. It wasn’t much, but that small gesture let me know that he appreciated our friendship. I enjoy shopping at J.Crew more because I know Matt will always be there for me.

Glenn at my local store is awesome. I love stopping by with my dog and seeing what he’s putting together! It never occurred to me to just email him…great idea!

It’s very convenient, especially if you can’t always make it into the store. My personal shopper was especially helpful before Christmas last year. He helped me to search the entire country for items that my family wanted.

I’ll have to remember Matt for when I’m in the suburbs, since you’re not that far away from me!
