Starbucks Team Leaders

[Yetive]

Also, I got my almond milk. Do we have to wait to use it? I think the date we were given for starting was the 29th, but co. stores are starting it with PSL.

 

[Coqui]

I never received the almond milk. I read that it was select regions, guess mine wasn't one of the selected.

 

[Yetive]

Just got it Friday. I think you will get it on your next order.

 

[Xanatos]

Yeah Coqui you should get it this week. Select regions are starting it on the 5th and then I think everyone else starts on the 29th. Coincidentally, I've had more people than normal ask for almond milk lately, but I don't think any of them knew that we were going to be getting it.

 

[Yetive]

Me too, that's why I just want to start using it.

 

[redeye58]

Haven't gotten ours yet.
Dreading today because if our leadership enforces the single-use on the coupon, we'll have (as Xanatos pointed out) guests bringing over a crap-ton of merch to check out at SB.
THEN they'll insist on using their SB card/app AFTER they've scanned their OTHER card first.
Grrrrr.

 

[Yetive]

It's nuts here, but only a couple of people have asked. They usually get drinks first, so just do it. Not a big deal really.

 

[Xanatos]

So far, 0 guests have asked. Still half the day left though.

 

[Coqui]

If it comes in my next order I should have it by Tuesday then. I left a note on my white board for my team to sample throughout the day to get more people in Starbucks for the sale. I close so I don't know how it's been for them.

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

I asked for 10% coupon. Once in the am & 2nd time after 2pm. I got cold grande for 2.50 after 2pm.

 

[Yetive]

Sample, lol. We can't keep up with orders. PS I'm LOD, not sbux.

 

[Coqui]

I beefed up the schedule today so they should be A-ok.

 

[Yetive]

I wish I could have had more coverage. We have been slammed since Friday, so I'm not sure how much the sale has contributed. We have had to make cold brew every day. Do you have 2 toddies, or do you just run out?

 

[Yetive]

Just made my first PSL. Not exactly breaking down the doors for it here.

 

[Coqui]

I made one yesterday. I personally don't like pumpkin spice.

 

[Yetive]

Me neither.

 

[Coqui]

I got my almond milk. What is it used for? Is it just to have as an alternative?

 

[Yetive]

Alternative. My DM said to wait until 29th to use. Mid Atlantic states will start the 6th. Also NoCal.

 

[Coqui]

I told my team to sell it today especially with those early access to PSL promotion starting today.

 

[Coqui]

Had my dsv yesterday and my DM is adamant that I enforce playbook. My team is going to hate me for keeping them in roles. They are aware of them it's just doing it everyday.

 

[Xanatos]

I think it might work pretty well for your volume. Any store that consistently has at least 2 people working would probably benefit from Playbook. Sadly, I don't even get a whole lot of double coverage during December.

 

[Yetive]

Same here. I always imagine assigning myself to all of the areas and leaving signals for myself. .

 

[Coqui]

It should work great at my store like you said so I am going to give it my all and see how it goes.

 

[ele1]

It seems like they are starting to really push Playbook again. Had my last DSV today and that is all they talked about.

 

[Coqui]

Playbook and food sales has been a big focus.
