hi i'm george and i will be walking you through a day in the life of an sas merchandiser here at sas we want you to get an accurate look at what your day-to-day tasks and expectations will be arriving at your scheduled location for the day please be sure to park after the cart carriage away from the front of the store the parking in the front is for customers before exiting your car please be sure to bring the following tools with you in order to perform the job a pen highlighter black sharpie a tag puller and
a measuring tape please be sure to be in store ready to work at your official start time once in the store our teams gather at one of the cash registers toward the front of the store please look for a friendly lead in a blue shirt the lead will welcome you and introduce you to the rest of the team upon making the introduction you will be given your work assignment along with the expected time of completion our job is to ensure that the assigned category follows a very particular blueprint we refer to this as a planogram
the planogram will cover a few of the following details for a given section specific item location number of facings per item shelf heights item numbers and item description if the current shelf heights do not match the planogram we are required to move the shelves to follow the planogram we are also required to clean the shelves as we set the section in order to help the store with cleanliness and presentation if any questions or challenges arise in the course of your work day please look for your lead tell them what you're dealing with and receive instruction
from them on how to carry it out teamwork makes the dream work there will be instances where a section is moving to another part of the store in these cases we pull spots spots is a term we use for pulling two of each item this will help us set the section in its new aisle and location in the store once the section is set we begin to fill this simply means we stock the section with all the remaining product once the entire section is set we will begin the cleanup process by ensuring all items are
accounted for within four categories discontinued items not in set items overstock items and out of date items discontinued items are products that no longer belong in the set not inset items are products that are not active on the planogram but are not on the discontinued list overstock items are active products that have too many units on the shelf and need to be placed in the back room for later use out-of-date products have outlived their shelf life if you need help identifying what category each item falls into please work with your lead at the end of
the day we check out with our lead and this ensures that our time worked for the day is accurately recorded to be paid out at the end of the pay period our tools of success are very common day-to-day items that can be found around your home a pen highlighter black sharpie a tag puller and measuring tape here are a few do's and don'ts of merchandising we hope that this video gets you started on the right foot with our winning team we look forward to welcoming you to this team we also hope that you can take
