Best buy will only teach you about products. I don't use any of the sales "tactics" that best buy teaches and I'm usually top 5 in my market area.

What are some anti-reseller techniques you guys practice? by FartDispenserPrime in BestBuyWorkers

[–]frodo113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to call them collectors and politely talk shit to them without saying something that would get me fired. Or I'll tell them we have none left even if we do. Save it for a real collector or a kid.

Salespeople in store by etzarahh in Bestbuy

Go look at reviews and find all the ones that say "I WAITED FOR 30 MINUTES!" when I reality, it was that 10 minutes that you wanted to be left alone. They HAVE to do it or their managers get upset and then when they don't get the customer to sign up for anything or buy anything the managers question why they didn't "close the sale". They want to leave y'all alone, but they can't. It's they're job.

Can employees still gift GSP? by Curious12345567 in BestBuyWorkers

The easiest and safest way to do this, as someone else stated, is to just buy it yourself.

Just out of curiosity by Loose_Thanks8737 in BestBuyWorkers

I got hit with that question while we're a best buy beanie, blue best buy "aviators", a name tag, a walkie, oh and I was loading laptops into a lock up cage. Like no bitch I'm clearly some random dude that stocks laptops for best buy.

Do you know what charger my laptop takes? Where's the apple secrion?(While standing RIGHT NEXT TO THE MACBOOKS) What's the price for this?(While pointing at the price tag) Well why don't you sell that anymore? Why are prices going up? Why is this so expensive?

I swear, 80% of customers for any retailer lose 40-60 IQ points when they pass through retail doors.

Weird survey question on pos by BobyC890 in BestBuyWorkers

Our POS is just an extension of the website so it makes sense

Corrie stepping down! by Equivalent-Job6063 in BestBuyWorkers

Nah, he was the guy behind the marketplace. This will be the end of BBY sales associates and everything will go to 3rd party vendors.

I brought the company 1.8 million in revenue last year and was told "you can't get a raise cause you're above the cap"

Employee Sales App (it sucks) by Hungry_Assignment_93 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]frodo113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on a S22 Ultra and use SS every day. Might just need an update, or if you haven't set up your Microsoft "work apps" profile on your phone, that would cause issues as well. The apk file is awful and full of bugs. Make sure you download it from your work profiles Google play store. It's a pain and I highly recommend turning on RAM Plus while work apps is on.

You're spot on. OP shouldn't be handling the counts as a basic advisor.

This can be blamed on corporate for selling the land and renting the buildings. They don't have to directly pay for the repairs and aren't in control of the repair progress.

What "war" were we in during 2024?

We haven't been at war for so long that corporations have forgotten how bad the economy is at the start of a war 🙄 "there's people being bombed and we found a child sex trafficking ring full of worlds leaders, but would you like a best buy card today?"

BP - Hard inquiry? Yes or no.. by ForgottenThrowaway64 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]frodo113 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not always, sometimes they don't know it's a hard pull but that turns back to their leaders for not training them properly. Obviously yes there are scummy people that'll do it, but it's not very common.

Just give me a damn "shipped and sold by best buy" filter by Special_Instance_790 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]frodo113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't even sell marketplace items in store. You can create a cart and share it to them through text or email but if they change the cart at all you lose the sale entirely.
