Re: Question about the Beauty Counter at Walgreens Like Irishlass said Beauty Advisors receive PM's on items.
These are examples of PM's they always receive (unless they're on an advertised sale price)
Studio 35 Implements : 5%
Revlon : 5%
L'oreal and H.I.P : 3%
Almay : 5%
Neutrogena : *forgot*
Physicians Formula : *forgot*
Rimmel : *forgot*
Jane : *forgot*
Milani : *forgot*
Prestige : *forgot*
Jordanna : 5%
Sinful Nail Color : 5%
A large amount of the W brand HBA products also pay a 5% pm, such as the Minoxidil and W brand lotions.
There are also monthly PM promotions. Some of this month's are:
Chemistry Hair Care (FAR) : $2
L'oreal Revitalift Serum (FAR) : ...forgot but it's about 80¢
Cover Girl Lash Blast : forgot...
Pantene Beautiful Lengths ($5 rebate on 2) : forgot...
Revlon Eterna 27 : forgot...
Perfect 10 Haircolor : forgot...
Huh, I thought I remembered a lot of these and then I started typing and realized I don't remember a lot of the PM amounts! Oh well gives you an idea...they do get it on lots of items and it's really nice of you to ring up with them. They've been paying PM's on a lot of the FAR items lately so that's a really big plus for the BA's!
They do also have sales goals they try to meet. Certain dollar amounts, certain % of the red zone sales (that is a % of the total amount of cosmetic items sold in the store that day, rang at their register), certain customer counts to reach.
Most BA's do have coupons, not only coupons that they cut out of the paper, but also a lot of companies send coupons out specifically to the BA's to get customers to purchase products.
Okay I've overburdened you with information, enjoy! |
