Overall as a profession I feel that we owe it to our own respect to treat all shops as our own, afterall we are responsible for any shop we are in and it is in our interest to ensure we keep a good reputation. |
My thoughts exactly.
Having a 'day book' which is really a diary where you can write notes is a boom.
For example today 6/10/07 : ordered xyz for Mrs B, delivery 10th. On the page for 10/10/07 write another note expect delivery xyz ordered 6/10/07 for Mrs B.
Its surprising how easy it is to chase up queries stuff expected on deliveries etc.
