Thrift Store Sales Trends

  • Any trends in store sales that are worthy of exploration, along with some analysis of each (cause/effects)

Thrift Store Staffing

  • from db: Hours breakdown by "sales admin," "thrift store" over the year, monthly
  • Trends and comparisons with store income
  • Volunteer Internships
    • from db: total volunteer hours by month?
    • from db: total # of interns, with total hours from each (are we relying on a couple "super" interns? Are they all putting in about the same before they move on?)

Online Sales Narrative

What happened/changed here?

  • Story (saga) of the online sales commission position
  • State of oversight
    • no more official Online Sales Coordinator
    • Sales committee and AT juggle responsibilities currently (right?)
  • Hours
  • Income
  • Types of items we tried and results
  • Policy considerations, BAN

Bulk Sales Narrative

What happened/changed here?

  • Scraptops eliminated as-is laptops "from the back" and from Safari
  • Safari (RIP) moved to Saturdays, then killed in November due to....
  • Gentech for printers: total sales to MK?
  • some policies put together, but no current bulk buyers except Gentech
  • Totals for any known bulk buyers (MG?)
  • Deemed low priority, and essentially dropped once Luiz moved to Tech support

Other

  • Rentals?

Looking Ahead

  • Do we want to include 2011 planning as part of this, or take it on as separate. I'm leaning toward the latter.
