As a Summer Associate at Catalyst Fitness Buffalo, the focus on optimizing product placement has significantly boosted retail food and beverage sales, marking a 30% month-over-month increase. This role capitalized on my skills in customer support and satisfaction, drawing on the customer journey behavior to strategically overhaul sales approaches and merchandise planning. Leading the charge in managing an $80k+ monthly merchandise tracker, the efforts have not only met but exceeded inventory KPI targets.Collaborating closely with both the Retail Manager and the sales team, we've identified top-performing SKUs and conducted extensive product research to expand offerings in nutrition and beverages. This proactive approach, coupled with the coordination of promotional strategies and marketing collateral production, has further cemented my expertise in advertising operations and the creation of data-driven, customer-centric retail environments.
