Show Picture Slide 21
Why should you be on this webinar and listen to what I am about to
share with you today?
Show Picture Slide 21
Why is it important that you learn how to increase your store sales?
Show Picture Slide 21
If you are a retailers, except you have been living under a rock, you
know that
the retails environment is rapidly changing
Show Picture Slide 21
New technologies and the internet has completely changed consumer
buying behaviour.
Entire retail categories are on the brink of extinction
Show Picture Slide 21
Many books and entertainment retailers will cease to exist in the
next few years…
Many other retail categories will also cease to exist…
Show Picture Slide 21
Or will cease to exist the way we know them…
The scary news is, it could be your retail category
Why LearnTo
.
Increase Retail
Sales
Show Picture Slide 31
In the last few years we have witnessed the demise of the UK high
street.
In town after town, many high streets have become ghost towns…
Show Picture Slide 31
As thousands of independent retailers close shop.
It is not because people are not buying, people are still buying…
Show Picture Slide 31
Recession be damned, people will still eat.
They will still wear clothes.
The only difference is people’s buying behaviour have changed
Show Picture Slide 31
We now live in a new retail environment
In this new retail environment… old ways of running a retail store will no
longer suffice
Show Picture Slide 31
Online shopping has already reached two hundred and twelve billon USD in
Europe
Show Picture Slide 31
And three hundred and six billon USD in the US.
What this means is… a whole lot of people are going to be doing their shopping from the comfort of their
homes…
Show Picture Slide 31
This is why it is very important you pay your undivided attention to what
I am about to share with you.
Because if you learn what I am about to teach you…
Show Picture Slide 31
You will be able to achieve your goals no matter the changes taking placing
in the retail industry…
Show Picture Slide 31
But if you do not learn what I am about to
teach…
your store will end up with one of those dreaded signs…
Show Picture Slide 49
Let me tell you a story to put our discussions into context
Show Picture Slide 49
When I was conducting research for my retail books, I visited
Harrods.
I have heard a lot about Harrods, but had not actually visited it.
Show Picture Slide 49
You can imagine my anticipation and apprehension at
visiting one of the most famous retail
stores….
Show Picture Slide 49
where royalties, Hollywood A-list stars and the “who is who” from around the world
go to shopping.
Show Picture Slide 49
In my mind, everything in Harrods was made of
gold.
I even bought a special outfit for the occasion to ensure I was in sync with
the royalties and A-list stars.
Show Picture Slide 49
I was hoping I could catch a glimpse of Roman Abramovich
and some of his billionaire friends or some Saudi prince.
Show Picture Slide 49
However, instead of some Russian oligarch
or Middle Eastern Sheikh, what caught my attention was a
bus.
Show Picture Slide 49
I had bought the identical bus for my
son from ASDA. It was the same bus in the same packaging.
Show Picture Slide 49
An odd question popped into my mind
when I noticed the bus: why is it that the same
bus…
Show Picture Slide 49
in the same packaging, probably made in the same
factory in China, by the same people…
Show Picture Slide 49
being sold in Harrods for almost three times the price it was sold
for in ASDA?
Show Picture Slide 49
ASDA sells toy bus. Harrods sells classy toy bus even if it is made in the same factory in
China.
Answer:
Show Picture Slide 49
ASDA sells toy bus. Harrods sells classy toy bus even if it is made in the same factory in
China.
Show Picture Slide 49
There is a difference, that distinction is what I want to share with you here today
because there in lies the key to increasing your store sales
Show Picture Slide 49
You see what shoppers buy from Harrods is not the
crappy made in China toy bus but the experience
Show Picture Slide 49
The experience they get from the process
of buying…
They pay for the beautiful store
design
Show Picture Slide 49
The attractive visual merchandise display and the exceptional
customer service they receive from the sales
assistants.
Show Picture Slide 42
Increasing retail sales require three thing:
Beautiful store design
An attractive visual merchandise display
Show Picture Slide 42
And Effective loss prevention strategy
I will explain the loss prevention aspect of the
process later I know because many of you might be
confused by its inclusion
How to increase retail sales:
Store design
Visual merchandise display
Loss prevention
Show Picture Slide 60
Quite recently in the UK, there has been a battle going on
between the big four supermarket and the German
dual: Aldi and Lidl
Show Picture Slide 60
Aldi and Lidl have managed to cut into the market share of
the big for supermarket.
In fact just this quarter, Tesco posted it worst result in its
history
Show Picture Slide 60
In response to the rise of Aldi and Lidl, instead of the big four
supermarket coming up with alternative strategies to counter their rise, they
decided to go into price war.
Show Picture Slide 60
They are now in price war with each other and in price war
with themselves.
The result they are all in trouble.
Show Picture Slide 60
The reason they chose price war instead on coming with
creative strategies to counter the Germans is that’s all they
know.
They think that the only way on increasing their store
sales…
Show Picture Slide 60
Is to reduce price.
This is because they do not know the things I am teaching
you here today.
No you do not need to reduce your price
Show Picture Slide 60
20-30 percent of people will buy based upon price.
But 70-80 percent of people will buy based upon value…in
retail speak the experience
Supermarket price war
Show Picture Slide 64
So instead of focusing on reducing your price, what you need to be focusing on is how
to create the type of experience that will entice
customer to choose your store over that of your competitor.
Show Picture Slide 64
Creating a good customer experience requires:
Good store design
Attractive visual merchandising display
Show Picture Slide 64
And effective loss prevention strategy.
To create a beautiful store design and an attractive visual
merchandising display, you need to ask yourself these four
question:
How to increase retail sales:
Store design
Visual merchandise display
Loss prevention
Show Picture Slide 70
Who you are going to sell to: your target market
What you are going to sell to them: Your marketing message:
How you are going to sell it to them: Your marketing media
Show Picture Slide 70
For the majority of retailers, store design means hiring a
handful of builders or carpenters to knock together
few shelves.
Show Picture Slide 70
However, a beautiful store design is more
than just about shelves
Show Picture Slide 70
In the same token, visual merchandising
display is not just about placing
merchandise on the store floor.
Show Picture Slide 70
Good store design and attractive visual
merchandising display are first and foremost about conversion
The process of store design and visual merchandising must start with:
Who you are going to sell to?
What you are going to sell to
them
How you are going to sell it to them
Show Picture Slide 75
Conversion in this sense is using your store design and
visual merchandise display to catch shoppers attention as they walk pass your store
Show Picture Slide 75
Secondly, it is the ability to retain them for long in the
store…again which depends upon your store design and
visual display…
Show Picture Slide 75
For example using the right colour scheme in your store…
Designing your store to facilitate good customer flow and
Easy access to merchandise
Show Picture Slide 75
Thirdly, it is about your ability to persuade them to buy using
contextual display…good lighting system and creative display
Conversion process is:
Attracting customers to your store
Retaining them for
longer in the store
Persuading them to buy
Show Picture Slide 80
The fourth part of the conversion process is the availability of merchandise in the store.
The image you see is the picture I took in one of the biggest retailer
in the UK
Show Picture Slide 80
This was in the middle of summer, they forget to order enough water
in preparation for the summer heat.
I mean this is a really big retailer, you wonder how can they make
such a blunder?
Show Picture Slide 80
They just failed conversion 101, having the damn goods in the
store.
How can you convert shoppers if you do not even have the goods in
the store?
Show Picture Slide 80
This is the loss prevention aspect of the process, having the supply chain and replenishment process.
Keep your promise to your customers
Show Picture Slide 85
So what have we learnt?
We have learnt that increasing your store sales is a two step process: Lead
generation:
Customer attraction: attracting customers into the store as they walk
pass it
Show Picture Slide 85
And Retaining them for long in the store
Step two: conversion:
Persuading them to buy
And triggering automatic repeat purchase.
Show Picture Slide 85
To achieve the above:
Attracting customers as they walk pass your store
Retaining them for long in the store and persuading them to buy,
You need:
Show Picture Slide 85
A beautiful store design
An attractive visual merchandising display
And effective loss prevention strategy.
Review & Workshop
Show Picture Slide 92
You might be wondering to yourself now well it was a great
information, but how do you design a beautiful store, create an
attractive visual merchandising display or create an effective loss
prevention strategy?
Show Picture Slide 92
The answer to this question is in a home study course we created entitled: how to increase retail sales with store design, visual
merchandising display and effective loss prevention strategy.
Show Picture Slide 92The How to increase retail sales home
study course will show you how to:
Show Picture Slide 92• Attract customers to your store
• Retain them for long in the store
• Persuade them to buy
• And trigger automatic repeat sales…
Show Picture Slide 92So you can increase your store sales
which will result in increased profitability for you.
Providing you the resources to enjoy the freedom for which you started your
business.
Show Picture Slide 92You will no longer need to worry about
money to buy stock and
you will not have to work ten fifteen hours a day seven days a week and still not be
able to afford a holiday.
Show Picture Slide 95It is broken into four modules…
In module one, I walk you step by step through the process of identifying:
Show Picture Slide 95• Your target market…who you are going
to sell to
• Your marketing message: what you are going to sell to them
• And your marketing media: how you are going to sell it to them
Module One
Show Picture Slide 97• In module two you will learn the step by step process for designing a beautiful store that attract customers as they walk
pass it
Module Two
Show Picture Slide 99Module three walk you through the
process of creating an attractive visual merchandise display that makes it
possible for shoppers to see all of the merchandise in your store to persuade
them to buy
Module Three
Show Picture Slide 118And module four deals with profit…how to reduce your shrinkage and increase your
profit margin.
Show Picture Slide 118Most retail training programs charge
hundreds of pounds to teach you theories that have no practical application in the
real world of retailing.
Show Picture Slide 118Worse of all many retail training programs are taught by either professors who have never
once in their lives stood behind a store counter or people who themselves failed at
retailing.
How can someone who failed at something show you how to succeed in it?
Show Picture Slide 118This is not because they are bad trainers
who want to deceive you…
it is simply because they do not know the fundamentals of increasing retail sales.
Show Picture Slide 118There has never been a retail training that
combines store design, visual merchandising display and loss prevention because no other retail consultant know how to combine these three to increase
retail sales and profit.
Show Picture Slide 118This is the first time in retailing history
that a retail training has focused on increasing retail sale and profit with the
combination of store design, visual merchandise display and loss prevention.
Secondly, there is no other retail training around at this moment that shows you
how to identify:
Show Picture Slide 118Your Target market: Who you are going to sell to
Your marketing message: What you are going to sell to them
Your marketing media: how you are going to sell it to them
Because not a lot of retail trainers know anything about sales and marketing
Show Picture Slide 118You cannot increase sale if you do not
know who you are going to sell to
neither can you increase sales without knowing what you are going to sell to them or how you are going to sell it to
them.
Show Picture Slide 118Shoppers these days buy for different
reason than they use to buy years ago.
Except you know those reasons, you will not be able to get them into your store
Show Picture Slide 118The how to increase retail sales home study course was designed for retailer like you who
cannot afford to spend thousands of pounds to hire experts.
Imagine how much it would cost you if you had to hire a retail consultant, a marketing expert, a visual merchandiser and a store
designer.
Show Picture Slide 118
With the how to increase retail sales home study course, you will have in
your hands a marketing expert, a visual merchandiser, a store design
and retail consultant all in one.
Show Picture Slide 118
If you were to hire all four of those professionals which is what you will
need to increase your sales and profit, you will shed out a minimum of ten
thousand pounds or even more depending on the size of your store.
Show Picture Slide 118
But don’t worry, you are not going to be paying ten thousand pounds for the
how to increase retail sales home study course…
you are not even going to be paying five or even a thousand pounds.
