Who talks to your customers more than you do? Who knows what will most satisfy your customers? Who knows what will attract customers to your business? Your Staff!!
From USA TODAY June 29, 2005 GM's employee-discount offer on new autos pays off General Motors has hit upon a possible escape from the big sales incentive that have ruined its bottom line without boosting it market share.
The strategy is akin to one-price selling, minimizing distasteful negotiation. GM doesn't call it one-price, but that is at the core of GM's current promotion- selling anybody a vehicle for the price an employee would pay.
Preliminary June data from analysts show that the program Authentic Josh Morrissey Jersey , which grew out of employee suggestions, is wildly successful. It appears to have boosted GM sales 20% to 30%.
How would you like to increase your sales 20% to 30%? EMPLOYEE SUGGESTIONS WILL MAKE YOU MONEY
All you have to do is: 1. Ask your staff for ideas. 2. Reward them for giving you ideas.
Get the ball rolling on profit increasing ideas at your sales meetings. Start every meeting with thank you's, congratulations and rewards for ideas generated at the previous meeting and during the course of each day.

Why reward them for ideas not used? You do not want your staff to become discouraged. And, sometimes the ideas you do not think are worth trying today will be ideas you cherish in the future.

Some of the great money making ideas my employees came up with for my businesses:
Video rental store: Not charging the customers for rewinding videos. My video store staff listened to the customers complaining about being charged 10 cents for not rewinding the rented videos. They figured out how much money we netted in a month from the charges and presented it to me with the prediction that we could take customers away from the competition by not charging the fee. We took many customers away from our competition for only the cost of a dime.
Tire store: Asking every customer to purchase a valve stem with every tire purchased that we mounted on their vehicle. We charged $1 for the valve stem, they cost us 15 cents. We sold an average of 500 tires a week. You do the math!
Electronics and Appliance stores: 7 days a week service. One of my sales professionals realized televisions, stereos, VCR's and camcorders broke down when they were being used. Most people use these items in the evenings and weekends when we and our competition were closed. By simply having someone available to give the customer Authentic Connor Hellebuyck Jersey , with the broken equipment, a loaner item we increased our sales 15%.
Jewelry store: Put a small jewelery case display in every store. When we opened our jewelry store we certainly were not known as jewelers. We were not, we were retailers. To take advantage of all the store traffic we had in our tire, electronics Authentic Michael Hutchinson Jersey , appliance, and furniture stores we put a small display of jewelry in each store with signage announcing our jewelry store. An employee idea that propelled us to the top jewelry seller in our market.
Furniture store: Changing the layout of the store. One day a sales professional in my furniture store said, "I have an idea. Since our largest profits. And his largest commissions come from the sale of bedding, why don't we put the bedding at the front of the store Authentic Dustin Byfuglien Jersey , instead of the back where we and all our competition currently put it.?" He got a very nice reward, for that idea doubled his commissions.
If you're not increasing sales you are falling behind. There is no such thing as staying even. From the book "You're Not Lost Until You Are Out Of Gas"
