1. Presentation
   Making a difference in the presentation of your store sets a tone for who you are as a business and for your customers, what they can expect from you. And this needs to come from you, the leader of the business and very clearly. Indicating what is acceptable in terms of how you display the merchandise, how you use display materials, where your focus and priorities are is very important. As you provide the lead, others will follow. If you do it in a positive, constructive, even coaching way, they will learn, deliver consistently and even generate their own ideas. Once established, this becomes a culture of 'the way we do things around here'.

         Reaping Profits Through Advertising
         The consumer today is bombarded with a wide range of products and services. With the concept of globalization taking root and a firmer shape with the changing times, the options that a consumer has are unlimited and mind-boggling. And of course each entrepreneur strives to provide the best possible deal that he can for the consumer, thus making a decision becomes even tougher for the consumer. As a result, the best and the only way of dealing with this uncontrollably mushrooming competition is by devising a proper strategy on how to advertise your business. Again, with the vari
         ness and very clearly. Indicating what is acceptable in terms of how you display the merchandise, how you use display materials, where your focus and priorities are is very important. As you provide the lead, others will follow. If you do it in a positive, constructive, even coaching way, they will learn, deliver consistently and even generate their own ideas.

         Presentation is perfection within the constraints of what you are able to do. Focusing on what you can't do, for maybe want of financing, is a waste of time and energy. Time and energy that can be focused on fixing that which is within your influence, and those of your people. This can be your own version of the 'Broken Windows' or graffiti analogy that Giuliani uses so well - applied locally by you.

         So, for me, 'Perfection in Presentation' is:-

         • Having the products you sell available at all times for your customers
         • Being clean
         • Removing debris (like sticky residues from old showcards and stuff like that)
         • Making checkouts available for just that - taking cash quickly and not selling stuff
         • Reducing 'visual chaos', which is intimidating for those very people you are trying to get into buying mode - your customers
         • Experiencing the experience - through visiting your own store as a customer and seeing just what catches your eye

         Bottom line is that you need to have a focus of perfection yourself, lead your people through it and, over time, they will deliver for you. And you know what, they will make sure that everyone who starts new with you works that way for you.
