We ended the week -12% which is decent considering the beginning of the weekend we were down -33%. Overall scarves, travel, and handbags tanked. Boots and jewelry seemed to do pretty well.
Tonight was really dead so I updated the shoe lounge again, and I switched the sneaker table with the heels table to accomdate more styles of sneakers. I also worked on filling in the lingerie table which now house mary janes and more bras. Hopefully we'll see an increase on intimates this week. Also, with valentines day coming up we want to make sure we have our bras and panties filled ;). I put out some new red bras so hopefully the ladies will respond to those.
Let's talk about back of house. KEEP. IT. CLEAN. I'm going to be walking the break room, the stock room, and the office from now on. Granted, I know we don't have the hours to stick around for extra time but I want to increase our cleanliness. Seriously, this place is starting to gross me out. THERES NO REASON WE SHOULDNT KEEP THINGS ORGANIZED. Simple things like: running merchandise to the appropriate home, not leaving behind damages/dime outs (or ditching them in the wrong spot on back stock), keeping the cash wrap cleared, doing all runs at the end of the night, IF YOU SEE WACC FLOATING AROUND IN BACKSTOCK.. HEY GUESS WHAT. THAT'S YOUR DEPARTMENT. PUT IT AWAY. Where is your department pride???
