Indeed, it has always dedicated considerable efforts to the management of customer service and now the firm has a CRM system to offer a high-quality assistance service to customers, to put the client at the heart of the Giglio’s philosophy.

History

Michele Giglio learned back in the ’60s vital knowledge and trade secrets such as passion for details and interest in customer relations thanks to the experience his family gained from the textile and haberdashery shop.
What started as a one-man business turned into an Ltd company in 1970, and Giglio moved the first steps in the fashion field by turning the fabric shop into a real fashion store and moving to new exhibition spaces.
Entirely owned and managed by Giglio family, the company has now turned into a joint-stock one whose remarkable and continuous growth over the years has brought to the opening of new stores, and to the integral renovation of the existing ones.
The strength of the group is the synergy we developed among the stores, all based in Piazza Croci, and at the center of the beautiful Via della Libertà.
Today, Piazza Crispi is known by citizens and tourists as the focal point of elegance and high fashion in Sicily.

About Francescas.com

Francescas.com is the online home of Francesca’s, an independent boutique retailer that promises their customers a selection of hand-picked, beautiful apparel and accessories.

How Does It Work?

According to their website, Francescas.com was established in 1999 when they opened their first boutique in Houston and filled it with hand selected merchandise, including apparel, accessories, and jewelry.
Their website said that their store quickly became so loved that they now have more than 670 boutiques in 48 states across the country, and they are still expanding. They have recently launched their website store so they can better reach their customers all around the US.
Their website says that they work hard to carry “carefully-curated clothing, bright baubles, bold accessories, and playful gifts that are as fun to give as they are to receive.” They believe their customers will be able to find something special and beautiful on every visit.
Customers who are interested in shopping this store’s inventory will be able to look through their products by category, including New Arrivals, Dresses, Clothing, Swim, Shoes, Jewelry, Accessories, Home, Gifts, and Sale.

Cost/Price Plans

Because this company sells such a wide variety of products, there is no one single price or price range that customers should expect to find for the products that are sold here, especially when you take into consideration sales or promotions which may take place throughout the year, or new items that may be added to their inventory during that same time.

Refund Policy

This company does provide their customers with a Refund Policy for all purchase that are not considered Final Sale, Intimates, Gift Cards, or Swimwear.
All eligible items can be returned or exchanged within the first 21 days of the date of delivery as long as the customer still has their original receipt. After 21 days but before 90 days has passed, items can still be returned, but customers will be provided with store credit rather than a refund.
Customers who have purchase items from their website are welcome to return their items directly to their local boutique, but if they choose to return them by mail that is an option, as long as you are willing to have $5 subtracted from your refund for a pre-paid shipping label.

Customer Service Contact Info

Customers who wish to speak with Customer Service about their questions, concerns, or complaints can do so by phone at 800-980-1180 or by submitting them directly to their website through their Contact Us link.

Reputation

Currently it seems as though this retailer has somewhat mixed reviews, but this appears to be because of their many different locations across the United States; some customers have complained about their experiences with their local store inventory or local sales staff, which wouldn’t necessarily be applicable to the experiences of online shoppers.
Customers who are new to this company should be more comfortable trying this company for themselves because they do have a very reasonable Refund Policy.

Competitors and Alternatives?

There are many different online boutiques which specialize in the sale of apparel and accessories, especially when it comes to women’s fashion, so customers looking for alternatives to this particular retailer will have many different options depending on what they are specifically looking for.

I love to wander the fragrance department in stores. I love to smell all the different scents. I am always amazed at how different they all are and how some people are drawn to certain scents, while hating others. It is fascinating to me! You know what else fascinates me about the fragrance department? The prices! I have a really hard time spending hundreds of dollars on a spray that smells good.
Here is where FragranceNet.com comes in handy. FragranceNet.com was started to provide us with access to the largest inventory of genuine, brand name fragrances, skincare, candles, aromatherapy and more at the lowest possible prices. All of their products are guaranteed to be 100% original brand names. They have no imitations or knock offs, only genuine brand names perfumes, colognes, and beauty products.

I ordered my absolute favorite scent, Viva La Juicy, from them last month and I was thrilled to have my gift set arrive and find it was the exact same set I had seen in a high end department store just a few days earlier. A combination of honeysuckle, gardenia, jasmine, praline, amber, caramel vanilla, and sandalwood, this scent is just the perfect combination for me! This gift set retails for $115 but you can grab it for $63.19 from FragranceNet.com, even less if you have a coupon.

I also got to try this Chloe Variety Set. It includes little bottles of Chloe, L’eau De Chloe, Chloe Love Eau Florale, and See by Chloe. It is a great way to try out a few different scents without committing to a big bottle! Retail price $60, now on FragranceNet.com for $46.19.
Gucci - Guilty gift set edt M
Don’t forget the guys! My husband is currently wearing Gucci Guilty Pour Homme. This casual scent is a great mix of lavender and lemon with the rich scents of orange blossom and neroli. His gift set includes eau de toilette spray, aftershave balm & all over shampoo. This set has a retail value of $92 but you can find it on FragranceNet.com for $69.19.
So, while I still love stopping in the department store to try new scents, I will never be paying full price for one again! FragranceNet.com is the way to go when it comes to buying fragrances. And with Mother’s and Father’s Day coming up, this would be a great gift idea! They also carry make-up, skincare, haircare, aromatherapy and candles!
