Being in control of the live gallery for either 4 or 5 live hours per day (we are live for 17 unscripted hours daily). Each show is 57 minutes long with a 3 minute break to allow for transition into the next show with the next team. I am responsible for giving editorial content, monitoring ASA and compliance, driving sales, offering stock updates, formatting the show, guiding the presenter and the rest of the gallery team. It is a position of great authority and responsibility.I mix with people from departments all over the company – from presenters, directors, creative departments and floor/tech crew, to commercial teams like buyers, merchandisers and management. I am responsible for prepping shows in full, which means: finding out what is on a show; what the buyer wants me to focus on; the deal; the full details of the product (features and benefits, how it works, any limitations, relevant demos); what sales tools are available (VT, graphics full pages, stills, before and afters, live demos, statistics and survey results, press information…); the show format; the list goes on! Skills:- Drive sales and profit through various methods - Research sales history and see what has worked previously- Question what is on a show and discuss additions if necessary to achieve target – with buying/merchandising- Spin plates! Work the show – feature upsells, link products together- Hook the customer, inform them about the product and help them make the right decision- Open and close a sell with all relevant information in between, creating light and shade and opportunities to buy- Make the show interesting with sales tools and demonstrations- Keep your editorial compliant with no breaches of ASA Behaviours:- calm and take control if things don’t run smoothly- reactive during shows and prepared to change the format if necessary- Take accountability for my decisions- confident and at times demanding figure which in turn will create the best television Show less
