WE ARE LOOKING FOR A SALES MANAGER (F/M/D)
|Galeries Lafayette Champs-Élysées
PERFORMANCE For our GO FOR GOOD corner, we want to build a team that interacts and works well together to serve our
customers and give them the best shopping experience possible. Our team is the foundation for a good
performance of our project. Our team therefore consists of external members, the project managers, a store
manager and the sales staff, and internal members of Galeries Lafayette such as the PR manager, a graphic
designer and a merchandiser.
SPEND THEIR MONEY” (LUTZ, 2012)
At the beginning, three project managers were hired to make the opening of the GO FOR GOOD project
possible in the first place. They take care of the complete organization and planning of the corner. They decide
where the corner should be opened, take care of the 10 selected sustainable brands, set up a time and financial
plan, take care of a marketing plan, the necessary employees so that the project can be realized and much
more.
OF PROJECT & TEAM
In our external team, it is important for us to have transformational leadership from the store manager to the
PERFORMANCE
sales team as well as from the project manager to the store manager and the sales team. Transformational
leadership has proven that these teams are more effective and have higher levels of satisfaction (). Managers
with transformational leadership styles provide support to find different ways to accomplish a task and as a
result, salespeople can make a personal commitment to increase sales performance (). Through our survey, we
found that it is important to xy% to receive personalized advice from sales staff while shopping. In order to
ensure this, we always want to have at least three sales staff on the floor and train them in particular in terms
of customer advice. Our customers should also have the possibility to contact the store manager in case of
problems.
The tasks of our Store Manager are therefore to realize the sales targets and the desired turnover, as well as
to ensure a good quality of service.
For this, he has to take care of the management of the GO FOR GOOD corner, report to the project
managers and take care of the staff and the duty rosters. Thus, sales staff recruitment is also one of his tasks.
OF PROJECT & TEAM
Internal members of Galleries Lafayette offer the advantage that for a smaller project there is no need to
recruit new staff in terms of PR, graphic design and merchandising and the employees usually already know
PERFORMANCE
In general, our PR manager is responsible for the public relations of our corner to ensure a high profile and a
positive image for the GO FOR GOOD project. It is especially important to us that he brings our idea of
sustainable fashion to the public and especially to our target group. Since Instagram and the app are used as
our main platforms for communicating with our customers, the biggest task of our PR manager is to optimize
these communication tools. Other tasks will include the form of press releases and the organization of events,
such as our launch event.
Likewise, our PR manager works closely with our graphic designer to graphically represent the intended
communication. His tasks are mainly to present the idea of the corner visually in a way that the idea of
sustainability is brought to the customer.
Last in the team there is our merchandiser, who takes over the task of sales promotion. His tasks are mainly
related to the selection of the decoration to implement our idea of the sustainable corner, the selection of
suitable fragrances and music and the presentation of the articles of our 10 selected brands..

5 RISK
MANAGEMENT & IT
5.1 STAR FRAMEWORK
1. Identify Risk
1. The operational risk of risk loss or gain, occurs due to insufficient customer feedback to create a target group and apply special advertising and promotion methods
(Hopkin, 2017: 440)
2. The control risk of planning an event and sending out invitations correctly (Hopkin, 2017: 38)
2. Measure Risk
1. The risk of gathering information about your customers is very high, because most of them won't tell you what they think about your business. This risk is long-term and should
always be kept in mind. (Hopkin, 2017: 35)
2. Moreover, planning an event is much of work and not easy to manage. For that many things can be missed or get mixed up. For a great event, everything should run
smoothly. Or this short-term risk will have their impact right after the event, due to customer dissatisfaction and bad criticism in the media. (Hopkin, 2017: 35)
1. Design a customer satisfaction survey via E-Mail or spread it with Wi-Fi marketing, in which the customers can login for free when they fill out the survey
2. Create a guest list and plan your event with launch metrics to see how many people have opened their invitations and promised to come. Also provide an easy check in via
smartphone with a QR code and see how many people arrived at the event.
5. MONITOR RESULTS
1. Monitor your results with a net promoter score to evaluate the survey. Divide your customers into three categories to activate individual marketing campaigns.
2. Measure the number of check-ins, to see how many people really came. You can also monitor the opening rate of your invitations to see if any changes must be done by
the next event.

store analytics
Spectrio is an application for using wifi marketing. By using it you have many
advantages of getting information about your customers. First, with wifi
marketing,
you can see how many people visit your store per day and what kind of
percentage actually bought something.
Moreover you can get analytics, of which customers are new and who are
returning to your store. In addition to that, through the WiFi analytics, you
can get important information about your customers, like gender, age and
interests.
While using the internet you can also control what landing pages your
customers will see and what they redeem. You can also easily connect with
your customers on social media to promote new events and products.
Wifi marketing is also helpful for sending special promotions and coupons to
your customers.
At least it allows you to see when your corner is the busiest and when you
need the most employees.

BRAND MIX
BRAND MIX
When selecting brands for our Go For Good Corner, we have a few criteria. The
most important factor is the sustainability of the brand. It is also important to us
that each brand approaches the topic of sustainability individually and
integrates it into the company. In addition, the style of the brand is important to
us, so that each brand is unique and the brands are not in competition with
each other. At our Corner, we follow a modern and playful style that
incorporates different cultures, to a more minimalist style. The last important
factor is the price of the pieces, which is why we have chosen a premium or
luxury positioning.
The Swedish brand House of Dagmar was founded in 2005 by the three sisters
Karin Söderlind, Kristina Tjäder and Sofia Wallenstam. The pieces capture
Swedish culture and are modern but also playful. The high-quality items are
graphic, clean and straightforward, but also feminine. We chose this brand
because the focus of the collections is on the longevity of the products and
therefore the responsibility not to harm the ecosystem. Therefore, mainly
certified, organic, animal-friendly and, if possible, recycled materials are
used.
