Good Merchandising Will Help You Sell Product

The Impact Good Merchandising Has On Your Sales May Surprise You

Have you ever walked into a hardware store or an auto parts store and stood scratching your head, wondering which direction to go to find that one tiny part or piece you need? Maybe you have found yourself in a retail or sporting goods store, trying to figure out where on earth to find golf balls or spikes & poles to set up a volleyball net for your July 4th bash. We have all probably found ourselves in situations similar to the ones listed above or other equally daunting tasks at one time or another.

What is the one thing in all the above circumstances that could make finding that 'needle in a haystack', so to speak, a little less frustrating? The answer is MERCHANDISING! When you walk into a large store, finding something you need or finding a salesman to help you out are difficult tasks. However, with effective usage of signage throughout an establishment, store navigation and satisfied consumers could be as simple as color coding or placement.

Another effective way to merchandise products in a way that may encourage customer purchases is through proper presentation of apparel, household items, sporting goods, etc. on well-designed, merchandise-friendly racks and fixtures. A well-placed wall fixture or specialized product rack, coupled with colorful, eye-catching signage promoting price points and other pertinent information could be the difference between a buyer and a browser!

With so many retail options and different product types being thrown at us through media representation, whether in commercial form, print ads, or internet sales & promotions, sales establishments need to present their best face through well-thought-out merchandising and advertising techniques and budgets. The impact good merchandising has on your sales will not only surprise you, it will make your customers happier, therefore increasing the likelihood of high sales retention and customer loyalty.
