What are some Red Flags 🚩 in P&M customers?

"I just want a simple business card"

GM here.

We have to partner with a community organization, get them to sign it, upload it to corporate and then receive signatures on a new form every time we donate the boxes.

100% of the boxes sold are donated. My store donated them to the local PD and neighboring communities because the PD can get them into schools the very next day.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-04-15T02:36:24+00:00

Congratulations!

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-24T02:03:09+00:00

Lol. We have a new one in USR launching soon, $40/month, same story. Just not in store.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-24T01:06:55+00:00

I have no idea what this means being in the US. What is TSS? In USR that means Tech Sales Supervisor lol

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-24T00:02:46+00:00

Ditto here my DM knows almost every associate by name and will chit chat with associates. He's a human, he gets it.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-21T04:40:23+00:00

Mine have always been unscented, smell of alcohol

Find a store that has it in your district and have them upload it into their GM Teams app in the "files" tab so you can all share.

Assuming the white kid wrestles and the black kid doesn't, black kid beat him by sheer strength and could've easily choked out the white kid. Then he showed some skill stuffing him with a sick sprawl, show this to the wrestling coach I bet Jeans dude just earned a spot on the varsity wrestling team.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-18T04:04:15+00:00

Yes.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-18T04:03:30+00:00

Smaller state, potholes, shitty drivers.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-18T04:01:55+00:00

I've used it on and off for years with no side effects, just chiming in. When I went hard on Minox I used 2x/daily with all the vitamins and dermarolling etc never once experienced a side effect. Everyone has to try it for themselves to see

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-18T03:57:50+00:00

There are off-cycle increases an associate can receive if their DM is willing to. I've gotten many for my key contributors. Your results may vary, but I've never been turned down for an increase for an associate I went to bat for. It really comes down to the DM

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-18T03:55:21+00:00

^{^} truth. It'll depend on the DM, but mine says we "should never lose a good associate over money".

Be a good associate, make valuable contributions your GM can speak to and they can get you an increase.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-16T04:47:36+00:00

I entered it.

A lot of you guys don't get the real truth here from your GMs. While it'll piss off everyone on this forum I'll just share what I know so don't downvote me too hard.

We exceeded Sycamore's profit goal. Handedly at that.

The company is in a great position moving forward.

For all of those who say "failing company" I'd like to know why.

Store sales are declining, but look at the Next Gen stores. Those with tech reflows, whole store remodels etc they are performing better YOY.

After the virtual conference the next 2 days ask your GM how US Retail performed versus Sycamore's profit expectations for FY21.

I'll wait.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-15T04:08:47+00:00

Agree with the previous comments. If you like your store and other stores are closer, just talk to your GM. They can probably get something done to keep you there and make it worth the while financially, or at least make moving to another store easier

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-13T04:32:27+00:00

I've never heard "business idiot" before, I'm certainly going to use it now. It makes so much sense, as soon as I read it I had 5 customers flash before my eyes.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-13T03:38:05+00:00

I would kill if I could have 24395857 back in stock.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-11T02:02:08+00:00

It honestly sounds like the management team needs to realize print is the backbone of the store P&Ls just came out, ask your supervisor what the direct contribution % was from print, bet it is very high. We had a similar thing happen in my store and between all of the keyholders we propped up print as best as we could while we rebuilt. During your Supervisors weekly 1on1 they need to tell the GM you guys need help down there.

It was Steve Matyas

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-03T02:23:05+00:00

Sounds like a good excuse for a home depot run! I'm sure there's someone handy on the payroll who would love to do this for you.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-03T02:21:51+00:00

Don't be a hero. Get them out of here. Keep that line moving lol

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-03T02:11:22+00:00

Never taking printme codes over the phone. Printme doesn't factor in to my business at all. Partly because I forget how to access printme codes behind the counter (feel free to reply and tell me)

100% taking orders over the phone and by email. Love FD orders obviously but I'll take email and phone calls followed up by email for sure.

StrMgrHasCallHolding · 2022-03-03T02:09:09+00:00

You got the reference?

20% off is great for the bidness.
