What I learned on my

While I won’t eliminate the anxiety that is understandable due to the closures of big-brand retail, I hope I’ve given you the tools to combat the “retail doom” narrative. 85% more mobile users are searching for things like “Where can I buy that reindeer vitamin D3?” That was just 3 years ago. As long as retail staff is ready to deliver, I don’t see any “apocalypse” here.

Time investment
So, your agency has spent a lot of time identifying a reputation problem that seems to be rooted in structural deficiencies or policies. Perhaps you’ve used some ORM software to review sentiment analysis belize number data to see which of your client’s locations are suffering the most, or perhaps you’ve done an initial audit manually. You’ve delivered the bad news to the most senior-level person you can reach in the company, and you’ve also shared statistics that make the change feel very beneficial, begging for a renewed commitment to store excellence. What happens next?

While there are going to be nuances specific to each brand, my bet is that for most businesses the steps will look something like this:

C-suites need to take the time to create a policy that a) strongly communicates the company culture, b) demonstrates trust in employee initiative, and c) dispenses with unnecessary “chain of command” steps, while d) ensuring that every public-facing staff member receives thorough and ongoing training. A recent study found that 62% of new retail hires receive less than 10 hours of training . I would even call these alarming numbers optimistic. I worked 5 retail jobs in my early teens. I don’t think I received more than 1 hour of training in any of them.
Since a chain of command cannot realistically be eliminated in a large organization, store managers must then communicate the culture, encourage employees to use common sense, explain what does and does not seem like "common sense" to the company, and finally, offer the necessary training.
