Sep 1998 - Jun 2004
In this position I took great pride in designing all displays and making sure they appealed to our customers. I also was in charge of keeping track of all store inventory and having frequent inventory checks. I was also in charge of stocking inventory for the store. Being proactive with keeping stocked and organized inventory helps with the ordering and re-stocking process as well as keeping the store display designs showcasing all the store has to offer, leaving the customer wanting to ask questions and therefore come back. A simple, yet creative idea can become a display design that markets the store and brand. Show less

Sep 1996 - Sep 1998
I started my career in sales of bicycles and accessories. Through the ups and downs of retail I learned quickly that a purchase is important however connecting with the customer that leads to a purchase and a return to the store for more purchases is the number one way to market your passion of bicycles. I also would stock the store when the inventory was received and make sure the store front was always clean and organized. In this position I connected with the customer and explained and answered all bicycle and bicycle accessories related questions. Show less
