Brand Knowledge: Nordstrom, Inc.

The one thing that is undisputed about Nordstrom is that they are known for great customer service. Yup, they rule customer service. If every company in the world could copy Nordstrom’s dedication to customer service then this world would be perfect; well, after we solve the global warming crisis. The next time you see a Nordstrom store just go inside and observe it. You don’t have to buy anything; just observe. You will see exactly what we are talking about and it really is for real; no faking.

Here is the Nordstrom story; well, some of it. Taken from their website:

Our Start

In 1887, a 16-year-old boy left his home country of Sweden for the promise of New York City. He arrived with only five dollars in his pocket, unable to speak a word of English. His name? John W. Nordstrom. The first years in the land of opportunity were hard. To make ends meet, young John labored in mines and logging camps as he crossed the United States to California and Washington. Then one morning in 1897, he picked up a newspaper and read the front-page headline "Gold Found in the Klondike in Alaska." The very next day, he made plans to head north.

Things were no easier in the Klondike. The labor was hard, the terrain difficult, and there was an over-supply of eager workers. But within two years, John had earned $13,000 in a gold mine stake and returned to Seattle.

Back in the Northwest, John was eager to invest his money. He had befriended a man while in Alaska, Carl Wallin, who owned a shoe repair shop in downtown Seattle. It wasn't long before the two decided to go into partnership and open a shoe store together.

In 1901, the two opened their first shoe store, Wallin & Nordstrom, in downtown Seattle. This was the start of what would become the retail legend of Nordstrom, Inc.

From the beginning, John's business philosophy was based on exceptional service, selection, quality and value. The company built a devoted customer base; and in 1923, the partners added their second store.

In 1928, John Nordstrom retired and sold his share of the company to his sons, Everett and Elmer. Carl Wallin retired a year later and also sold his share of the company to the Nordstrom sons. A third son, Lloyd, joined the team in 1933.

A Growing Reputation

The company soon grew to become the largest independent shoe chain in the United States. By 1960, Nordstrom had eight stores in Washington and Oregon, and the downtown Seattle store became the largest shoe store in the country.

By the early 1960's, the company was looking for new ways to spread its wings. Venturing into the clothing market, Nordstrom purchased Best Apparel, a Seattle-based clothing store, in 1963.

Three years later, Nordstrom purchased a Portland, Oregon fashion retail store and merged it with their existing Portland shoe store. For the first time, customers were greeted with a selection of both shoes and fine apparel under a new store name: Nordstrom Best.

Men's clothing and children's wear were added in 1966, expanding the store to meet the wardrobe needs of the entire family. Business prospered and within two years, two new stores opened in Washington.

In 1968, the three brothers decided to retire and hand the company over to the third Nordstrom generation. The company was now led by Everett's son Bruce, Elmer's sons James and John, Lloyd's son-in-law Jack McMillan and family friend Bob Bender.

The company went public in 1971. Just two years later, Nordstrom sales passed the $100 million mark and the company was recognized as the largest-volume West Coast fashion specialty store. This same year, the name was formally changed to Nordstrom, Inc.

By 1975, the company had expanded into Alaska, and the first Nordstrom Rack was opened in Seattle as a clearance center for full-line store merchandise. Three years later, the company moved into the competitive California market; and by 1988, Nordstrom had made the big move to the East Coast with the opening of a beautiful new store in Virginia.

Nordstrom Today

While Nordstrom was growing nationally, it focused on catering to customers' needs, individually. Instead of categorizing departments by merchandise, Nordstrom created fashion departments that fit individuals' lifestyles.

Today, Nordstrom has grown from one downtown Seattle shoe store into a nationwide fashion specialty chain with renowned services, generous size ranges and a selection of the finest apparel, shoes and accessories for the entire family.

The company's philosophy has remained unchanged for more than 100 years since its establishment by John W. Nordstrom in 1901: offer the customer the best possible service, selection, quality and value.

Verify: Nordstrom

We hope this story inspires &/or motivates you in some way. Please be a better agent of great customer service and demand great customer service wherever you go. After all, the last time we checked the customer was still always right.

Hobbies
I am a movie head. Whenever I get some free time I usually watch movies. I also style hair, web design, cooking, and I’m a scrap-booker.

Influences
My ninth grade computer teacher, Mrs. Kim Eason-Needle. Before I met her I was that lost child, always being bad and skipping classes. She showed me there was more to life then being a rebel.

Inspiration
My inspiration comes from my little sister Stacey, my godchild Carol, and my friend Rosina. These three girls are pretty much why I can't stop moving. I do everything I do so they know there are no limits to anything you ever want to do.

Bio
An eccentric, business-minded, full-time student, budding designer, and aspiring model from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. With this long personal resume you would think she is older than 20. This Haitian-American woman has been through the rough life that most young kids in a separated home would go through, but she took a stand and stayed focused with great guidance to make a change in some way, some how. She chose to speak through fashion. Her messages speak in volumes with her designs and mindset on how she views society as a whole. She is focused, determined, and a strong believer in finishing what has started...HER LIFE!!!

Future Plans
I plan to attend Miami International University of Art & Design, majoring in Fashion Design. I also want to own a Boutique. In the year 2009 I want to start an organization for young girls, to help mentor them through life.

Advice to humankind
My people of all races, religions, and ages. We need to stop thinking we are the center of the world. The center of attention, and realize that we are slowly deteriorating our world to a rubble of nothing. We need to find a way to take a stand TOGETHER!

Pride & Self: The Power of Skepticism

One of the most useful tools that is available to all of us, free of cost, is skepticism. And yet, we are often not skeptical enough about what we see, or think we see, and hear. We run hastily with allegations and we accept lies and half-truths as if they were the gospel. When we fail to be skeptical we leave ourselves wide open to manipulation and we are at risk of being labeled gullible.

Every day the media feed us stories that are often incomplete or not yet fully determined. But this does not prevent most people from making up their minds about what they hear. What's the hurry? Why can't we just wait for all the facts and to see whether or not the allegations that have been made or the rumors that are being peddled are true? It is a sorry human condition; that we are so quick to judge and so eager to believe everything that we hear.

Think carefully on these things and start being skeptical about most if not all things. Patiently wait for the facts and don't accept things as being true simply because you hear it on the radio or see it on the television. These days there are many people in the media who are just too busy with their lives to spend the time to get the story right. We live in a world of lies and deception and when you least expect it that just may be the very moment that you are being led astray by someone or something that has some motive that is unknown to you.

Don't be a victim. Don't devalue yourself. Practicing skepticism in moderation is a good healthy habit.
