The small but experienced team of Private Services can best be described as 'professional problem solvers' in the luxury segment. 'From booking exclusive travel destinations and top restaurants to personal shopping and the flawless organisation of events and parties. You name it, Private Services does it,' says co-founder Micael Craenhals.
What type of services can people turn to Private Services for?
"People can call on us for bookings of restaurants, nightclubs, hotels, travel, flights, concerts and events. In the area of lifestyle and fashion we offer personal shopping, personal styling, home styling and household management. If you are looking for a driver, an exclusive car or a car transport, Private Services is the place to be. We have our own fleet of Mercedes (E, V and S Class). We also have a great deal of experience in organising private parties and company events and, finally, we are responsible for all kinds of security services. With these services we meet the demands of the most demanding and busy customers, both personally and professionally. We notice that there is a lot of demand for this today because people are busier than ever."
Which services are the most popular?
"Today these are wedding planning, car services and items and products that are hard to find. Just think of limited editions watches or handbags. Once we were asked by a Russian lady to look for the Hermes Himalayan Niloticus Crocodile Birkin 30, one of the most 'rare' handbags ever. As soon as we got the bag for her, she jumped into her private jet and the treasure was handed over on the runway. Speaking of a quick handling! That lady was very happy and we still have contact today. It is very satisfying to succeed in such a 'mission'."
What distinguishes Private Services from other players in this sector?
"Since our inception in October 2016, we have built up a large network of reliable partners and experts. We work with specialised teams in each of our fields. These are all passionate people who do everything in their power to satisfy our clients. No question or challenge is too much for us. We always work very discreetly because we know how much our customers care about their privacy. We also attach great importance to personal contact. We deliberately keep our team very small: customers can contact their own lifestyle manager 24/7, who knows them inside out. This ensures enormous peace of mind. People should not have to worry about reservations, bookings and organisations. It's all handled for them, quickly and discreetly.
You also offer services in the fashion and automotive sectors?
"That's right. We are present at almost every Fashion Week. We work closely with major fashion brands. This concerns the organisation of shows, events and launches as well as the agenda management and styling of the managers and owners. We also have our own stylist who assists customers while shopping or helps them find a suitable outfit for a special occasion. At the car level, we have a strong presence in the classic car scene. We offer specific services, from transport of cars to their purchase and sale. All customers have to do is let us know what their dream car is. "We do all the rest! Is everything really possible at Private Services? "The only limitation is that what our customers ask must be legal. But for the rest: no restrictions. Our partners and suppliers are
are located all over the world, so there are no geographical restrictions. We've already built up a solid customer base in those two years. But we don't rest on our laurels and continue to look for new opportunities in our business. Because the sky is the limit!
