Sales Floor Let's meet in the Middle; an Electronics/Tech thread

[TechNix]

Agreed. It’s teachers that get a percent off.

Yup, I was remembering from years ago. I do take advantage of the teacher one when it comes around.

 

[TechNix]

"More then 1" was always my answer to that question. If your polite? Then id add in less then 10.

That's basically what I do. I said a few.

 

[TurgetCirkl]

They had the gall to ask for a manager. She was having none of it.

Speaking of which, I got a target circle offer for 10% off an order for teacher appreciation.

Inventory... HeyDay... need I say more? Our inventory is coming up and HeyDay is always a PITA, especially when you find so many empty packages...

I did that with the SE-TL that I knew wouldn't just give in.

I don't know if this is knowledge across stores but my TL did this a while ago and it is fkn genius. In our new entertainment section you could just barely fit like one or two small kids' books before everything falls down. So we got those little vynal covers and did this! 10000000/10 would recommend.

They're great for the front of the shelf but my biggest issues with those fixtures is the amount of crap that slides/gets shoved behind them

It always resets in May and October.

 

[Psyfire]

Hmm, I don't remember that last year.

 

[Mikuhl]

Sounds like a GM problem.

 

[Budweisered4]

Sounds like a GM problem.

The last reset GM didn’t get around to it till almost 6 weeks after it was due. The GM ETL couldn’t get anyone to do it so ended up doing it themselves

TV wall reset next week is gonna be a shit show. Guarantee the 10 hours that were supposedly granted the store for the project will magically evaporate and it will be me struggling to get it done along with everything else.

I do the weekly revisions at my store. If we have a major transition, I get “help”. Now I need to look at the workload calendar tomorrow

That’s why I’d always plan ahead resets and transitions are always 2/3 weeks done in advance. Tv wall since we have down to a science is all done in 1 day we start it at 4am and it’s complete by 8
