Internship Summer 07’ at Lex’s of Cary Town Savannah Slasor
Daily Duties • Some of the daily duties consisted of: • Writing our daily promotions on the sidewalk sign • Changing mannequins and displays • Basic cleaning duties like swiffering, windexing windows, and displays. • Rearranging the store • Processing freight • Pricing merchandise • Marking down non selling merchandise • Cashier • Fitting room and wardrober • Taking messages and arranging meetings for Lisa
Fun things we didoutside of the store…. • Lisa, the owner, took all of the employees, including myself, to The Boathouse Restaurant for dinner. • The boathouse is an upscale restaurant that is on a lake at Sunday Park, in Richmond, Va. • We also had the opportunity to go on a team building day to Busch Gardens Europe, in Williamsburg, Va. • Lisa shut the store down and treated us for a 10 hour day at Busch Gardens. The roller coaster pictured to the right is The Griffon, 205 feet down 90 degree drop. I was drug on this ride!
My Co- Workers! Others that worked there but arenotpictured were: Amanda and Becca, Left to right: Liz, Lisa (Owner), Gigi (storemanager), Ellen, and Me
What I Learned working here… • Great communication skills with customers • Personal selling tactics • Pricing methods other than 50% key stoning • To keep a client book and call when new merchandise comes in, IT WORKS! • Fitting room and wardrobe skills (always have add ons in rooms because most of the time if clients buy anything, its that!) This was also a requirement of all employees, as stated in the handbook • Analyzing non sellers and marking merchandise down
