Sales Reporter Update.....
We are pleased to
announce that the Sales Reporter now seems to be up
and running smoothly. We have moved the Wireless
System to the front desk to make the connection more
accessible from
the sales counter to the Website. Please do not use
the plugs at the front counter, for any purpose, no matter
how minor, as they service both computers and the
Wireless.
Artisans, Please note
...... We have instituted a "no
food" at the front counter policy. Please eat before
coming on your shift. If you must eat while here,
please do so at the crafter's table in the back. Also,
after eating, discard your wrappers and drink containers in
the garbage pail provided in the parking lot. Hope all
of you read the insert with last month's sales report
regarding floor time schedule and your responsibilities.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Charge Card Machine
Are your doing shows and finding that you could sell more if you
were able to have your customers charge their purchases?
The solution is here. We have the facility to allow
you to borrow our "knuckle buster" charge card embosser and
offer VISA, MC, Discover and American Express to your
boutique customers. Please contact Elaine for the
particulars.
Vendor Floor time
Duties
Floor time requirement
returns to 4 hours per month starting in January.
During the year, we can use the cooperation of all vendors.
When doing your floor time, please circulate throughout the
store. We ask that you not stay behind the
checkout counter unless working as a gift wrapper; but
rather greet customers, and help them to shop.
Your active presence in the store helps all of us.
Your floor time
assistance is important to us and last minute cancellations
cannot be filled easily, leaving us without vendor help on
many occasions. Cancellations less than 48 hours,
except in cases of emergency, will be charged for the time lost.
Floor time is not to
be used for pricing your merchandise. Please use the
craft table in the back of the store for this purpose before
or after you come on floor time duty.
Price Tags
Please check over the
format of your price tags. With new employees on board
and the holidays just around the corner, it is important
that the tags be clearly marked.
Please break down
any boxes you have before putting them into the recycling
bin.
Parking. When
doing your floor time, we ask that you park across the
street in the clock tower parking lot. The town has
recently extend the time limit to 3 hours.
