WHAT YOUR DAY LOOKS LIKE:
You arrive fifteen minutes before your shift to get yourself ready for the day, check the whiteboard to see how you and your team did yesterday and catch up on the latest promotions and sales from your manager. You scroll through Instagram to feel inspired before shifting into sales mode and heading to the floor. If things are quiet, you grab some product to put away, clean the glass on the showcases and play around with the demo model of the latest 4K video camera that just came out.
You love this stuff and it shows! Your first customer of the day is looking for a DSLR. You warmly welcome them into the store and begin asking some insightful questions to understand where they’re at in their purchasing journey and what their research has taught them already. You demonstrate some awesome accessories and sign them up for a Henry’s Learning Lab Course. You know that the Henry’s Extended Life Plan saves lives so you tell them all about it. You offer to stay in touch by keeping them informed with the latest Henry’s news by signing them up to the Henry’s newsletter. After helping a few customers, researching new products, and practicing your sales presentation with your manager, you’ve had a great day. You can’t wait to do it all over again tomorrow!
