I'm revisiting this pages just to look at past ideas and how they fit my conception of where things are going.  My comments are paranthetical -Luiz

Some stuff that would make the [[Thrift Store]] easier to run:
+
== Related planning documents==
  
==Immediate Tasks==
+
[[Store Meta Question]]
  
* Get SCSI cards out of IDE section  (done...keep scsi lunatics away from the general public, please!)
+
[[Thrift Store (PPS)]]
* Label USB and modem boxes (done...week one...was this worth writing down?)
 
  
==Longer-Term==
+
[[Thoughts on Increasing Sales Income]]
* Replace sailor with a faster machine and/or upgrade OS (faster...for what?  so youtube streams faster?)
+
 
* Make system for regularly upgrading isos (still a problem, but not so much considering Ubuntu's popularity)
+
[[Sales Plan]]
* Clear labelling on boxes/shelves: what's there and how much does it cost (ongoin, maybe forever...remodel will address some)
+
 
* Clean up behind counter (get up out of that chair, and its pretty easy)
+
[[Store Layout Improvements]]
* Get phones in the store (work with Nathan) (done, and annoying questions were available for everyone)
+
 
* Organize system for wall warts so we can find different voltages and figure out what voltages we don't have so we can get more. (alot of upkeep for a $2 item...this highlights just how much I've moved away from this type of micro-service and towards whole system sales)
+
[[Tracking Returns]]
* Figure out when to send people to the wishlist and when to send them to receiving (figure this out: no more wishlist)
+
 
* Window sign that explains the store, what we sell, don't sell, and why. (please, no more stuff on the windows.  i like light)
+
[[Educational Documents]]
* Office supplies area (done, variable, popular)
+
 
* More testing in other places: sound cards, scroll mice, 5 and 7GB hard drives, zip drives (IDE and parallel), SCSI hard drives (done. just be nice)
+
[[General Issues Store Folken Need to Work On]]
* Reorganize: less slow-selling stuff, more quickly-selling stuff (reconcile this idea with the wallwarts idea above...)
+
 
* Get adoption volunteers in store (No. No. No.  Build yes, adoption no)
+
== General Free Geek planning documents ==
* Get more cashier volunteers in store (Done)
+
 
* Possibly get unpaid store intern (Working on it)
+
[[Vision Statement]]
* Price printer cartridges: set up system and document to store people know how to price them (more trouble than they are worth)
+
