LOS ANGELES—2023 AVN Best Enhancement Manufacturer Wicked Sensual Care is shining its Retail Employee Spotlight on Michelle of Starship Cheshire Bridge, located at 2275 Cheshire Bridge Road N.E. in Atlanta, Ga.
Reflecting on her initial foray into the adult retail space, Michelle reveals, “I started off as a customer! My best friend Debbie and I would shop at Starship’s Conyers location quite often. I loved the experience as a customer, and wanted to take my relationship with the company to the next level. Once I applied, things evolved quickly.”
Starship’s large selection of pleasure products at affordable prices and the knowledgeable staff’s dedication to providing a superior customer experience are the common denominators to be found among the many five-star reviews the Cheshire Bridge location has received on Google, Yelp, Foursquare and Facebook.
Michelle brings an inherent empathy to her job, actively listening to her customers, understanding what they need and what they want, and puts herself in her clients’ shoes to come up with ideal solutions. “I would say my specialty is creating an educational, intellectual and comforting experience for my customers. My favorite parts of my job are my interactions with our customers," Michelle said.
“The desire to make others happy is one of the most important traits for anyone working in retail to possess,” observed Wicked Sensual Care director of sales Jennifer Brice. “The entire pleasure products industry, and everyone who works in it, exists to bring joy, acceptance, and inclusion into people’s lives through providing the sexual wellness products that people need. It is particularly important for store employees to possess this trait since they are the ones dealing directly with the public.”
For her part, Michelle is a fan of Wicked Sensual Care’s products, because as she says, “With lube, anything is possible!”
