Editor's Notes
My Boss Jim Welcomes you,
Holiday season, we are going to discuss Thanksgiving primarily. We have many new managers and we will an to keep good notes of the season. I will ask for recaps directly after each holiday for use next year
Goal is to be wrapped up by 230.ECO Lab will have a handout to cover
Something fun to get every one relaxed
Straight to the topic at hand. Jumping right to it funny for group presenting too.
Too many ways to correct the current OOS issues. I have talked with the food division managers and need Store Directors help. Focus on master the tools for sustainable improvements. Avoid cover up methods.
Opportunity, tools to use and discuss
Good example
Scan BS on load days and back stock night
Speak to the daytime schedule.
These are examples of what not to merchandise …overblown displays that hoard valuable merchandising space.The days of blown up Coors, Miller and Bud are gone.This is not what our customer want to see.
I sent notes out on Winter Grab bags, they are still up in stores. Get the Seasonal ales up, Angry Orchard. What customers are looking for.
Frozen Food Aisle Crossover items are selling very well..HOM crossover items are selling more off Food Ends then in basic home.Be certain to crossover both directions when it makes sense
Pepsi contest, Darcie wins a new IPAD!
What is going to sell?
Cake Boss is a flop, it tastes horrible. We cannot mark it down due to the vendor agreements. Move demo hours to departments Move cake boss to2 rows in the cake caseRemove POS and tables from the sales floorPut holiday items on tables.
Get it out starting Sunday. The store will get crowded be aware of space, but get it out.
Start changing the mix of goods to support the change in buying patterns. Breads, pie crusts changes to candies and cookies.
Orde to fill seasonalitesmPrice point baking shippers, they will quickly go to the shelf.
UP by Sunday
New vendor this year, be certain to schedule a walk prior to Chrimstmas week to review ordersPet stocking stuffers are big each year
Bryon Midkiff was challenged to come up with a Cider that could sell. Angry Orchard was selected. The item was sold out in 2 weeks. Some stores sold as much as 50 cases in one week.How much of the Jolly Roger did you sell? DaveBarger? Great item, great job.
Not sure this is even going to make it to the intended holiday. More splits are coming.
14 hands Hot to Trot continues to be one of our best sellers.
Adjust CAO orders. Thanksgiving week is coming. Our warehouse items will pick up in movement. Blends, red blends, whites and reiselings.
Add to warehouse wines to highlight items
14 hands Hot to Trot continues to be one of our best sellers. Box wine is not priority
Planner must be followed. This will help support movement off the shelf
Long term sustainable success is about the people you develop,
I already sort priorities, sorting again is not necessary. Stay focused on continuous improvement over immediate results
Respond to emails, you ever send emails and never get a response? I am guessing yes
I will discuss in Director meeting. I will discuss that I wanted to be called first during primetime.Examples of huddles
Hot items get to main traffic areas Thursday night.
Goal is to be wrapped up by 230.ECO Lab will have a handout to cover
