Thank you for showing your interest in my company, I am sure we can provide excellent services to you, and want to help you along the way.  Please contact my office, or you can reach me directly, for more information.  I started this company with experience doing in-store demonstrations, merchandising, and mystery shopping, and knew that the industry had no room for error.  I wanted to create a company that provided in-store and special event staffing that exceeded all goals and expectations.  I have experience booking last-minute events in less than 2 hours!  Let me prove that to you.

 

Since April of 2004 I have been conducting in-store demonstrations, everything from food, cooking, high-profile and special events, all the way up to grand openings.  I have also done all types of merchandising and mystery shopping (POG mantainence, resets, retail shopping, etc.).  I know what it takes to make a demonstration successful - and because of this, I will continue to conduct demo's to ensure I know what is expected of all my demonstrators and staff - this policy is set for all of my staff as well, and also includes merchandising and mystery shopping assignments.  Merchandising is also something I know needs to be done right - this is never something left out in retail, and must be done correctly - I will guarantee this like all of my services.  Mystery shopping increases service and evaluates standards objectively - we know this and can provide that as well - it is too important for a business not to have.  We want our clients and reps to be happy, and we know these steps, such as continuing to do the work we are scheduling, can increase rep loyalty and client satisfaction.  I have also worked retail before, so you can be certain I have a personality for sales and promotions.  I "know no stranger," and want you to feel comfortable that I will get your event(s) done the best they can.  I not only hold a job role certification as a Customer Service Rep, but I am also MSPA Gold certified!

 

*As an important note - If we can't handle a program you would like us to do with our current staff, we have people on stand-by to work for us part-time or full-time.  As business grows, if given a specific area, we can place field coordinators that will schedule, audit, and do face-time with reps.

 

Additionally - we have strategic partnerships nationwide, allowing us to meet all of your needs seamlessly.

 

*It's true! - We are a member of NARMS, the National Association of Retail Marketing Services, Event Marketing Division (and a Division Committee member!).  To learn more, visit www.narms.com.
