I felt like quite the cheerleader this week... and no, not the one from HEROES ("Save the Cheerleader, Save the World!) For me, it was more like the cheerleaders from the 80's TV Show Saved by the Bell... (the one that kept her clothes on, thank you very much - and no I will not tell you which one)... chanting over and over again "Beat Valley Fair! Beat Valley Fair!"
Who's Valley Fair? They are the top C28-Franchise owned store. Well, for the month of March make that "were the top C28-Franchise owned store." Because in March, that title goes to our own C28 in West Palm Beach. We had the highest sales of any non-corporate owned C28 store. WOOHOO! I'd love to say I was a major contributor, but I'll be the first to admit that my managerial staff does a phenominal job preparing the store and educating the staff (and once again I stand around looking pretty). I am super proud to have Ryan and Emily on my team! Moreso because we set a goal ahead of them, and they came through. And speaking of creating ownership, these C28 employees time and again prove that they not only understand the sales angle of the store, but they also get the ministry angle. So in their honor, I wanted to take the time to say awesome job to my emps, for getting to be the top franchise store in C28. Work hard and let's keep it that way!
The bad thing about setting goals is when you reach them, you have to raise the bar higher. I'm sure that makes my staff nervous.
Note from Jeff: For those of you who got totally lost in the Saved by the Bell reference, "Bayside High" neighboring rival was "Valley High". And you said you never learned anything reading my blog...

Thanks Jeff.
