Across the pond....Brits

I haven't seen any of our Brit friends post in awhile.
Just wondering how it's going over there.
We used to get a lot of post from you guys, so what's up now?

Do you guys/ladies have to active sell every day?

active seller = person appointed to shop floor everyday, approach customers and push deals on them on shop floor

lol entertainlogist

In your opinion, does it actually work at your store?

Scenario:

Customer walks into store

Customer picks up Star Trek

Active seller approaches Star trek customer and says HELLO

Customer Mumbles a word similar to a hi

Active seller suggest renting more than one

Customer mumbles any excuse and walks off with the one film they intended to get

Active seller scratches head in confusion and tries the next person

(Loop effect)

omg are they bringing back the active seller?!?!

they canned that position at my store like a couple months after i started working. my buddy, who was the active seller, had to actually learn how to use the register.

what they are telling us to do is when we're not behind the counter helping a customer or doing actual work you should be an active seller on the floor.

entertainologist? I LOVE IT!!!
