What's a team to do...........

Hi team. I'm sorry to say, but last week was a rough one. Our department was down 18 percent. Of our many classes we were only up in 4 classes; slippers up 57, necklaces up 9, earrings up 2, and panties up 228. From last week we have continued to fall behind in boots which we were down 1,255%. Sunglasses were down 80 percent, hats 31 percent, gloves 64, athletic 2,646 %. Disappointingly, classes we managed to gain back last week took a dive this week for example hair accessories which was down 4 percent. We were up 2,000+ two weeks ago in athletics and our numbers for last week flip flopped into the negative. In Anni's most recent post she discussed possible reasons for last week's numbers, placement and displacement being two of them. So, while I didn't have a chance to place the two bags she was referring to I worked on filling and making sure everything we have in bs is also on the floor. Since we only got a quarter of a box in WACC (some new head bands, replen in earrings and a new style in tights), once I back stocked the head bands, placed the tights and separated the earrings for placement I worked on the panties wall. I filled the popular styles and got some new and displaced styles out. I condensed the Dolce lace up boot on promo and added the Ecote Moto to the other end of the shelf. I then walked the floor and replenished scarves, hats, and bags. Earlier in the morning Leslie replenished gloves and socks so between the two of us we hit up all but beauty. Around 11:30 I worked on mark downs. The motel cropped top is 14.99 as is the pleather bustier that has been in bs forever and the velvet burnout bustier. Three styles of the promo tights went on sale and I got to everything but some of back stock. The last hour and a half of my shift was spent at the cashwrap.


COOL THINGS: We got the label maker!!!! Its really simple. There is a label app on our MPO's, tap that and follow the instructions!!! Leslie got to a lot of skuless items today. Thank You Leslie.
