A Day on the Floor

You’ll open with a quick walk-through of the sales floor and donation/warehouse areas, then align the team on the day’s priorities and service expectations. The rhythm moves between coaching in real time, checking registers and reports, responding to donor and customer needs, and keeping the store looking sharp. You’ll pause to review sales trends, adjust the plan, and communicate updates to the Director of Retail Operations. By close, you’ll confirm the store is reset for tomorrow and that the team leaves supported, clear, and proud of the impact their work makes.
