Here’s a Fun Spin on The Traditional End-Of-Year Staff Party

Want to freshen up your end-of-year party? What about a store trivia night (along with some fun food and drink, of course). Who was your highest-spending customer during the year? Who sold the oldest piece of inventory? What was your top-selling wedding band brand? Not only is it fun, but it allows staff to reminisce about the craziness of the year and commit to mind some important sales data. Prep some neat prizes for the winner.

Time for More “Me Time”? Time to Call Wilkerson

Rick White, owner of White’s & Co. Jewelry in Rogers, Ark., knew it was time to retire. Since the age of 18, jewelry had been his life. Now it was time to get that “me time” every retailer dreams about. So, he chose Wilkerson to manage his going-out-of-business sale. White says he’d done plenty of sales on his own, but this was different. “Wilkerson has been a very, very good experience. I’ve had the best salespeople in the history of jewelry,” he says. “I recommend Wilkerson because they are really the icon of the jewelry business and going-out-of-business sales. They’ve been doing it for decades. I just think they’re the best.”
