 With host retail coach Wendy Batten https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   You are in for a very special holiday treat on this episode of the Creative Shop Talk Podcast, my friends! Joining me on this episode are three of my Level Up Mastermind and Retailer's Inner Circle members: Amy Cseh, Amy Hart, and Jeff Lee, all brilliant and longstanding independent retail shop owners who have been in the trenches and experienced ups and downs just like many. (Links to follow along with all of them are below.)   The interview, which originally aired exclusively in the Retailer's Inner Circle Facebook group, is FULL of holiday sales tips from these three seasoned shop owners.   Here are just a few of the sales tips we dug into: Take advantage of any of the events that are organized by the community or town.  Ensure your staff is well trained and knows exactly what you are trying to accomplish. Set specific numbers goals for your staff so they can be engaged and track progress. Know your customer base and anticipate what they are looking for. Don't “panic buy” merchandise just because you have FOMO or think that's what you should be doing. If you are an Inner Circle member, implement the sales strategies in the Sales Accelerator masterclass. (And if you aren't a member, maybe it's time to join the Retailer's Inner Circle!) Don't miss the after Christmas rush!  Customers want to shop that week between Christmas and New Year's. Have a plan for projected sales/buying plan for Q1. Sales will slow down after the holidays are over and you don't want to be caught off guard. There is a new masterclass that just released into the Inner Circle this week all about Open to Buy Inventory Management that all members have access to. Pay attention to your return rate per square foot. If something isn't selling fast enough, you may need to make a decision to downsize the display or get rid of the line completely. Plan your events & weekly emails ahead of time so you aren't missing personal things during the holiday season. It doesn't feel good to let personal things slide for the “sake of the store.” Do everything you can in advance, including personal things. (By the time this podcast airs, Jeff's house will have been fully decorated for Christmas for 2+ weeks!) Amy C.'s advice: “Bless and release!” You've trained your staff and they are good at their jobs. Schedule your days off and enjoy your time outside of your shop. YOU are the only one who is going to notice what doesn't get done. Know what your “no's” are and stick to them. If something is causing you stress, give it to a team member or simply don't do it.   If you are interested in joining the Level Up Mastermind, we are opening 3 seats and would love to hear from you. Now that you've “met” three of the retailers who are part of the Level Up Mastermind, you may have a better feel for who we are.
