Running a store is 20% selling and 80% managing stock, staff, and suppliers.
Whatβs the part of store management that takes up most of your time right now?
you take on extra work, cover for absent teammates, and keep delivering.
management calls you reliable and rewards you with even more work.
then appraisal season comes, and you get a 2% hike because βthe budget is tight.β π
A simple way to reduce waste in your store:
Create a βclearance sectionβ for items that havenβt moved in 45β60 days.
Even a small discount is better than dead stock sitting on the shelf.
