“Hey! See you later!” said one and the two friends – continents apart – waved a cheerful goodbye, kept down their phones and resumed work.
Video calls are a common mode of communication these days. Bridging global distances with live streaming videos, these calling apps are a big boon in the fast-progressing world. Keeping in touch with family and friends is just a matter of few taps on the keyboard or phone screens now.
Well, communicating over video calls is common, but have you ever tried shopping over a video call? Poonam Patel from Ahmedabad, now settled in USA, made a smart decision – and purchased her favorite Indian outfits – by making a Video Call to Saree.com. She fondly recalled that she had bought 5 of her wedding outfits from Asopalav, when in India. In the image above she is wearing one of the gorgeous red and white traditional sarees, she had bought from the store, for her wedding functions.
But, this time Poonam couldn’t come to India, just to shop, but she still wanted to buy from Asopalav. What did she do?
Saree.com has a dedicated video-calling facility for its online buyers as well as the in-store customers of Asopalav. You can fix a call appointment over WhatsApp, FaceTime or Skype. Our team of stylists gets in touch with you at a pre-fixed time, and showcase products matching your requirements. The selected products are then customized for sizing, finished and shipped to the customers.
Belonging to a family that has always been a patron of Asopalav, Poonam Patel had bought an outfit from our store for her wedding a few years ago when she lived in Ahmedabad. Recently her brother-in-law got married in USA. Having shifted to the States after marriage, she still wanted to have her wardrobe from our store, but making a trip to India for shopping was not feasible at that time.
When she got to know about our online venture saree.com, she immediately booked a call appointment and chose her outfit over a video call. “It was as good, as being at the store and seeing the dresses!” said Poonam who was extremely delighted to get her outfits, so conveniently.
She bought a gorgeous light green lehenga and another beige and pink coloured lehenga choli through Video Calling facility. Poonam is extremely happy with the service, and she has even referred it her friends.
We had another beautiful bride as our client recently – who lives in the US but has deep Indian roots – Vaidehi. She bought her bridal lehenga choli from Saree.com – over Video Call. Vaidehi was looking for a traditional yet simple looking saree. Also, the bride and the groom wanted to coordinate their dresses and our stylists accordingly picked up outfits for their selection from our vast collection of thousands of designs.
The bride chose a red embroidered saree with a golden blouse and the groom chose a red sherwani with golden motifs and golden dupatta. The dresses were customized in size according to the measurements sent by them. The couple was extremely glad for not just getting what they wanted, but also getting it easily without having to make a special trip to India for the same. We wish the newly married couple a happy life ahead and we’re extremely glad to have successfully fulfilled their wedding wardrobe requirements through our easy video calling facility!
Technology is a boon, and when used smartly it saves a great deal of time and efforts. Our smart clients Poonam and Vaidehi booked their special outfits over a video call on saree.com, and made a purchase similar to what they would have got had they come down to the store and bought.
