MARY PORTAS & CSL
CSL were the brave participants in the second show of the first Mary Portas secret shopper series, which aired in January of 2011. Tasked with looking at customer service in the UK, Mary visited many different retailers including those in the specialist sofa market. Mary asked CSL to allow her and the cameras into the inner workings of the business in order to report and suggest. Jason Tyldesley and CSL were welcoming of the input and allowed unrestricted access.
See what Mary found on the clips below and how CSL have benefitted from the input of the retail guru. After the show, new and ground-breaking concepts such as our ´right for you´ promise and ´Love it or exchange it guarantee´ were born. One of the most striking additions was the ´Inspiration station´ a free interior design consultation available before or during your purchase and with no obligation. With the help of the latest technology, Inspiration station helps to find and visualise your style, creating a mood board and roadmap of your room to enable you to realise it. We suggest accessories and colour compliments to help make it perfect too. Better still, it´s totally free.
