Store Manuals:
Developing store operation manuals with clearly defined procedures and well documented processes. This helps to empower store staff to respond to customer needs and ensuring similar service levels all across.
Recruitment and Training
Getting and training personnel with right skill set is a challenge in the Retail sector.
While we help retail organizations to identify and recruit managerial staff from competing industries as well as from other organizations in the sector itself, we also have good relation with a host of business schools for recruiting fresh talent. Our focus on sales staff and front & back office staff is to recruit youngsters from semi urban centers, train them and place them in retail chains across a language region.
Employee Retention and Career Development
We also advise clients on retention strategies by providing for career growth and development within the organization itself through a transparent performance and potential assessment system.
Store Audits
Essentially to help store staff to deliver what the organization expects of them to do and organization to know and respond to the ground realities at the shop floor level. We look at sales strategies, systems, procedures, employee experience and customer feedback.
Customer Satisfaction Survey
We do this through mystery shopping, spot interviews of customers coming out of the stores as well as focused group meetings of regular customers of a store.
