Interest vs Commitment

  Interest vs Commitment Interest doesn't make us anything. Our action, commitment, and consistency in what we are interested in help us accomplish what we are interested in. Instead of showing interest in reading a book, stay committed to reading a page daily. Instead of showing interest in walking for an hour, stay committed to walking ten minutes a day. Instead of showing interest in meeting a friend personally after a week, stay committed to saying hi over the phone. List your interest and make an action plan to stay committed. Every drop makes an ocean; every step makes a mile. Keep your first step today and forever.   M.L. Narendra Kumar          

Adding Colours

  Adding Colours   When we bring laughter into others' lives, we make them colourful. When we bring peace into others' lives, we make them colourful. When we bring courage into others' lives, we make them colourful. When we bring happiness to others' lives, we make them colourful. When we bring fun into others' lives, we make them colourful.   We all have an opportunity to make others' lives colourful; let us add our colours so that we can become more colourful.   Happy Holi   M.L.Narendra Kumar

You are the maker and checker of your life.

Handling window shoppers

  Handling window shoppers Shopping is an experience, and window shopping is a part of it. Some customers have a favourite shop where they can walk in directly, while others try window shopping and finally select one. Whenever I get an assignment on retail training, I engage in mystery shopping to observe the sales team regarding their communication, body language, customer handling skills, etc. During one such assignment, I saw a lady doing window shopping who just walked into the stores and finally walked empty-handed, which is quite common in retail. What surprised me was the giggling smiles of a few salespeople and their comments about the lady after she left the store. Since the sales team was not adequately trained, that would have been the reason for their behaviour. Let us understand how to handle window shoppers. Window shoppers can be variety seekers, price sensitive, and would like to check now and buy later; it can be their outing or a tourist. In retail footfall counts...
