It All Starts With You and Your Staff!
To grow and nurture a successful business three factions must work hand in hand. The retail equation states:
Product + Promotion + People = Profit
Are your people prepared to maximize the products and promotions your operation has in place?

Shop & Share
As a business owner, we know you are extremely busy. So, it is difficult to know exactly how your customers are being served or how your competition is serving customers. That is why Collected Concepts created the Shop & Share program, a “secret shopper” program that encourages winning behaviors in sales associates and provides objective feedback for store management. In many cases, the Shop & Share program has revealed holes in even the finest stores.
Shop & Share works by informing the particular store the start and finish dates, the three “winning behaviors” that will be looked for, and the incentives in place. Each store in the program will be professionally shopped during an agreed upon period. The secret shop itself will be secretly filmed and given to you as a reference. Following the secret shop, a 2 hour onsite training meeting will be provided, that is powerful and custom fit to your store.
Why Shop & Share?
-
Create more sales short and long term
-
Create associate performance objectivity
-
Learn more about your competition
