Being Single: Part 1

Being Single: The use of customers and employees to maximize the shopping experience

By Peter Pishko

Part I:

How is it that some companies are able to expand in this time of economic conflict, while others can not?

Well, it was a form of magic that helped these retailers survive and do better than other in difficult times. Them information and had used it.

Information is the key. These retailers know that this situation is not permanent, and many have been similar through economic times and survived, many have even prospered.

Some of this information is to be able to know where customers are coming from and then use these data to know where to focus marketing dollars or even to determine when a new store must be.

At this time, commercial real estate is in trouble and there are many empty places. This makes it possible to develop a contract short term lease, not only to move goods, but also test the new locations. Or for many of you who are in places with storefronts adjacent to their shops empty, or at least in the center, contact center management and take advantage of these empty windows to promote their own location.

More importantly, information also tells a seller that type of goods to buy and how much of it to buy. Guessing and "look" inventory will finally begin to affect a retailer's profit without them even realizing what is causing it.

The information may also be unique and stand out from other retailers. That's what I want to focus in this article.

Link a showcase contest "> Competition has a shop window

As most of you probably know, is key to maintaining their stores looking fresh. An easy way to do this is to change the window of his store frequently show at least once a month, if not every week.

In a forum posting, I found a great idea to keep the window of his shows fresh. They talked about a contest with their employees. Create teams two people to dress the windows are rotated on a weekly or monthly. Each time you change windows, taking pictures of the final screen. At the end of the year, ask your customers to vote in your favorite window, and the award winning team with an award (Paid time off, gift certificates, etc..) You might be surprised how creative staff will!

title = "Permanent Link to Why small business owner needs a website"> brand building a website

A website helps establish your brand and allows people to find. Today days, the Internet is often where people look for when trying to find information, resources, locations, etc. Therefore, a simple website is only in its location, phone number, map, contact, sales and special events is all we have to start. A small website does not cost much at all, and is well worth the small investment.

Further down the line, you may want to consider expanding its store-level sales and selling Internet Online. This way, you can offer e-commerce buyers who visit your site and want to buy your merchandise.

Communicate visitors to your website

A website does more than put its Internet presence and brand and allowing it to sell the inventory at any person anywhere. It can capture the identity of visitors to your website through a contact form that provides the means to communicate with them later. You can use e-mail addresses to send coupons, brochures and ads, all without cost to you.

I recently got a call a salesman who was working on a project web integration-the goal was to add email addresses to your customer data base. Could it work in a process that would take all your e-mail and export this data to capitalize on the explosion of email to your entire customer base? My answer was an enthusiastic yes. This was a small company in Cave Creek, Arizona and the adoption of Customer Relationship Management technology was very encouraging.

When staff learned of this project came a flood of ideas – personalized emails based on the type of product purchased by the customer. Can we address the customer by name in the email greeting? Can the individual sales personnel of the firm in the email blast and then send e-mail messages not only as a promotion, but also as a thank you for your purchase? These ideas came from the personal. Now they are enthusiasm capture email addresses as this project is now yours, have a responsibility and showing the property.

Of course, the data capture is the first part, in fact, the data used to get results.

For example, a shop specializing in Manhattan sells cookware and high end appliances. On a monthly basis a report that gives them the addresses of all customers who have purchased high-end vacuum cleaners requiring replacement of filters on an annual basis. This provides contact with their customers, offers an expensive service to maintain its vacuum cleaners and provides an income stream monthly.

Build loyalty in internet blog

There are many reasons a retailer must have a blog (Web Log) to your website.

1. It provides new content to your website.

2. It gives your customers a reason to come visit your site on a regular basis.

3. It is a fabulous way of staying connected with your customers.

4. It allows customers see and know what goes on in the store.

5. It's a great marketing vehicle can promote your blog on other blogs, to spread the word about your store.

6. You will create a community and a better relationship with their customers, rather than just see them in person from time to time.

I think a blog is a more personal vehicle for you to express your ideas, show your personality and talk about your store (ie, what's new there and what is going on). You can also give customers a little insight into what it takes to run a store.

Feel free to blog about unpacking 20 boxes in one day, take pictures of inventory, and the mess! Talking about the challenges of being a shop owner, and most importantly, talk about their new merchandise. And to show their merchandise! You'll give examples of what customers can do at home with their products.

Organize an Event Store

In another forum for retail, I came across an ad that I share with you:

Last weekend I decided it was time for a new pair of running shoes. For me, shopping for new running shoes is very exciting because it combines two my love of buying and running!

I buy shoes to run on an independent shoe store (one that specializes in runners) because I love their selection and customer service. And when I was at the cash register to pay my new shoes, a postcard that caught my attention. They are planning an event for Diva women their guests … wine, cheese and a custom bra fitting. I think it's a very clever idea of a promotion for the store, and here's why:

1. Strong design of the postcard has a great design and immediately caught my attention.

2. Information will include promoting content an educational component that is interesting for female runners.

3. Songs from wine and cheese everyone loves something for free.

4. Discount-20% discount on all clothing second … better something for free is a good discount.

5. Clever concept of promotion, what woman does not want to be a diva of the night?

There are other ideas for hosting a tent. Invite customers to a tree lighting and give everyone who attends an ornament free, or invite a local artist to have appeared in your store for a demonstration at the store, or throw a girls night out party.

Sell more products that can be customized.

Many retailers are offering lines that can be customized in shop, or that is customized for you and sent directly to the customer (or your shop). Expanding on these lines as much as possible.

Customize your store by offering classes

The most closely related to its customers, the more you sell. Some ideas: 10 tips for decoration as a designer for the holiday season, or how to cut the perfect Christmas tree, or creating a perfect crown. Of course, you will be selling some of the products you're talking about, and if you do not feel comfortable teaching the class, invite a local interior designer to help exit. You can pay with the development of trade (goods and / or store credit in exchange for teaching).

Show why your goods is unique

Provide more information about the products it sells. If you sell products that are made Handmade, imported from an exotic place or recycled source of something, make sure you're communicating this to their customers. Do not just rely on word of mouth: sign framework that explains why the merchandise is so unique. Make sure you have other forms in hand (paper card) and give everyone who buys one of the pieces. Him help sell more products, and add a special touch when it is given as a gift.

Provide stellar customer service

I'm talking about customer service again, but you know the information service is provided, more customers can enjoy exchange of experience and repetition shopping!

The retail success is in it for the long term, seeking not only to maximize profits, but to create a growing customer base in it for the long term.

Customer loyalty, all talking about it. A satisfied customer tells 2 to 3 people how happy and an unhappy customer is …. Well, we all know the adage. Keep them happy and coming back. Providing a shopping experience of the music and lights, signature fragrance.
