Structured to ensure your team can be successfully styling after a few short weeks, and then continue to deepen and refine their skills over the course of the 12 month syllabus, The Premier Optical Practice Programme is known for fast results.
Part One of the Programme certifies each member of your team in the art of Eyewear Styling and Part Two teaches your team the skills they need to be successful.
Practices that complete the Programme enjoy great returns. In fact, because this programme includes detailed Optical Sales Training and modules on applying Eyewear Styling in an Optical Practice setting, the vast majority of Optical Practices make their investment back within the first 1-3 months of joining the Programme.
The investment starts at £3495 per team, depending on your team size. Quarterly instalment options are also available.
Receive instant access to the full 12 Months of content, so your team can begin training today and access the materials anytime and anywhere. This enables each team member to complete trainings at their convenience and continually revisit topics to refresh their knowledge.
The sheer volume of training videos, supplementary training materials, and bonus resources made available within the Programme would require an enormous number of in-person training sessions to even come close. And, each time new content is added, your team receives access.
There is no need to close your doors or find a rare day when your entire team is available. The online training format avoids the logistical nightmares associated with in-person training and provides easy-to-follow interactive trainings that ensure your team stays engaged and on-track.
Around 90% of information taught at in-person training sessions is forgotten within 72 hours, primarily because the information is not repeated enough times to enable retention. The online training format enables your team to revisit, retain, and expand their knowledge over time.
By joining the Programme you receive lifetime access and, since the Programme is continually updated with new training materials suited to the current times, your investment remains relevant and impactful over time, with no additional training investment required. It's all included!
You and your team will also have direct individual access to Programme assistance whenever needed, from both Eva herself and a knowledgeable technical support team eager to assist you.
You will enjoy access to Live Calls and a private Online Consulting Session with Eva Dave.

It is not often that we experience resistance from team members for 3 main reasons:
In fact, one of the most frequent comments I receive from Practice Owners is how their teams have found a renewed love and excitement for optics, and how much the Programme has improved team morale as well as confidence in dispensing.
And, it is actually individual team members who often reach out to me, hoping to get their Practice Owner on board!
If you have a team that is already interested in styling and who are eager to learn, do join us. They will be fast implementers and you will likely see a return on your investment very quickly.
If, however, this is something that appeals to you, but you are unsure if your team will get on board, I am very happy to speak with your team before you commit to anything, to help them see the benefits of the Programme for both themselves as individual Optical Professionals, and your Practice.

Only if you want to.
You can successfully style with the collections you already carry, as many of these collections will have the shapes and colours required to suit an array of client personalities, colour types, and facial features.
The Programme will give you and your team the confidence to expand your frame colour and shape offering to better serve your clients, and your Practice.
Additionally, if you plan to change your collections, and become a luxury eyewear boutique (now or in the future), we teach you exactly how to do that as well.
Always remember that it is your business and can choose to offer a styling to everyone, or you can create a VIP experience for select clients who specifically seek to be styled—it’s completely up to you.
If you encounter a resistant client, you will have the knowledge necessary to turn the experience around and convert the client into your best brand advocate, as we cover resistance and common objections in detail within the Programme.
And, once your team learns the rules of effective eyewear styling, they can’t unlearn them, so every client you see (styling client or not) will benefit from your team's new skills and confidence.
