Case Study: Supporting a Struggling Team Member in a Retail Environment

Sarah works as a sales assistant in a busy clothing store. The store is preparing for a major sale, and the team has been assigned specific tasks to ensure everything is ready. Sarah is responsible for restocking shelves, while her colleague, Jake, is managing the fitting room area.

As the day progresses, Sarah notices that Jake is struggling to keep up with the number of customers asking for assistance. The fitting room has a long queue, clothes are piling up, and some customers are leaving frustrated. Jake looks overwhelmed, but he hasn’t asked for help.

Sarah is unsure whether to continue with her assigned task or step in to support Jake. She decides to approach him and offers to take on some of the workload by organizing the fitting room while he focuses on customer service.

After 30 minutes of teamwork, the fitting room is back under control, customers are happier, and Jake feels less stressed. Later, the manager thanks Sarah for her initiative and reminds the team that supporting each other ensures a smoother workflow and a better customer experience.

Discussion Questions:

1. What advice would you give Sarah and Jake to help them manage tasks more effectively?

2. How can offering help to a struggling colleague benefit the entire team?

3. What could have been the consequences if Sarah had chosen not to step in and help?

# data[].attributes.body
Sarah and Jake should communicate regularly and be proactive in recognizing when extra help is needed. Jake could have signaled earlier that he was struggling so that support could be arranged sooner. They could also work together to create a system for managing high-traffic times, such as setting a rotation for clearing the fitting room or asking the manager for additional support during peak hours.

Helping a struggling colleague improves efficiency, reduces stress, and ensures customers receive better service. When employees work together, tasks are completed more quickly, leading to a smoother workflow and a more positive work environment. It also fosters teamwork and encourages a culture where employees feel supported, leading to better morale and job satisfaction.

If Sarah had not helped, the situation could have worsened. The queue in the fitting room might have grown even longer, leading to frustrated customers and possible complaints. Jake would have remained overwhelmed, which could have affected his performance and attitude. Additionally, the overall store environment could have suffered, as delays in one area can impact the entire team’s efficiency. In the long run, a lack of teamwork could lead to lower employee morale and a decline in customer satisfaction.

Step 1: Research and Summarize Your Employer’s Policies

# data[].attributes.subject
Step 1: Research and Summarize Your Employer’s Policies

# data[].attributes.body
Employers typically have policies that outline acceptable workplace behavior and how to report any concerns. These policies aim to create a safe, respectful, and inclusive environment for all employees.

Step 2: Poster or Leaflet

What Are Workplace Discrimination, Bullying, and Harassment?

• Discrimination: Treating someone unfairly based on personal characteristics such as race, gender, age, disability, religion, or sexual orientation.

• Bullying: Repeated, unreasonable behavior that demeans, humiliates, or intimidates someone.

• Harassment: Unwanted behavior that creates a hostile work environment, including verbal abuse, inappropriate jokes, or physical intimidation.

Examples of Unacceptable Behavior

• Excluding or isolating a colleague based on their background.

• Making offensive jokes or comments about someone’s race, gender, or appearance.

• Yelling, threatening, or using aggressive language toward a coworker.

• Unwanted physical contact or inappropriate messages.

• Spreading rumors or making false accusations to damage someone’s reputation.

How Employees Can Report Concerns

• Speak to a Supervisor or Manager – If safe, raise your concern directly.

• HR Department – Report incidents to Human Resources for formal action.

• Anonymous Reporting Systems – Use any confidential reporting channels available.

• Legal Authorities – If policies fail, external bodies like workplace safety commissions or legal aid can help.

The Importance of a Respectful Workplace

• Encourages a positive and productive work environment.

• Protects employees from stress, anxiety, and job dissatisfaction.

• Enhances teamwork, trust, and professional relationships.

• Ensures legal compliance and reduces the risk of lawsuits or penalties for the organization.

Task 1: Explaining the Loyalty Scheme

1. Research & Explain

Loyalty Scheme Example: Beauty Bliss Rewards (Hypothetical)

How it works: Customers earn 1 point for every £1 spent. Once they reach 100 points, they receive a £5 voucher to use on any service.

Benefits:

Exclusive discounts and birthday treats

Early access to new treatments or services

Free sample products after every five visits

Special Offers: New members receive double points for their first purchase and a free brow tint with any service.

2. Customer Interaction Role-Play

Script Example:

Employee: Hi there! Can I ask if you’re already a member of our Beauty Bliss Rewards program?

Customer: No, I’m not. What’s that about?

Employee: It’s our loyalty scheme where you earn points every time you spend with us. For every £1 you spend, you get 1 point. Once you collect 100 points, you receive a £5 voucher! Plus, members get access to exclusive discounts, free birthday treats, and more.

Customer: Hmm… sounds good, but I’m not sure.

Employee: Totally understandable! But the best part? Signing up is quick and free. And as a welcome, you’ll get double points on your first visit and a complimentary brow tint. We just want to say thanks for choosing us.

Customer: That does sound tempting.

Employee: I’d be happy to help you sign up—it only takes a minute, and you’ll start earning rewards straight away!

3. Reflection (200 words)

When dealing with a customer who is hesitant to join, it’s important to stay patient, friendly, and informative. I would first ensure they fully understand the benefits and that there is no obligation or cost involved. Sometimes, customers are cautious about signing up because they fear spam or hidden conditions. I would reassure them that their information is kept private, and they can opt out at any time.

Using positive language, I would highlight exclusive rewards and real examples of how customers have benefited. If a customer expresses concern or confusion, I’d answer clearly and offer to assist them through the process. Creating a low-pressure and friendly atmosphere can help customers feel more comfortable.

To make the scheme more appealing, I’d suggest offering time-limited bonuses for sign-ups, such as double points or small freebies. Visual aids like posters or app screenshots can also help demonstrate the ease and benefits of the program. Personal recommendations or success stories from loyal clients can build trust and interest.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Recognising Buying Signals

Common Signs:

• The customer asks about pricing, discounts, or promotions.

• They ask if there are benefits for frequent visits.

• They compare services with other salons or mention they come regularly.

Responses:

• If a customer asks about discounts: “Actually, we have a loyalty scheme that rewards you every time you visit would you like to hear more?”

• If they mention being a regular: “You’d benefit a lot from our rewards program you’ll earn points every visit!”

• If they ask about value: “We love giving back to our loyal clients our scheme includes free treats and money off services.”

2. Application Process Guide

Step-by-Step:

1. Fill Out Application:

• Complete a short form with your name, contact number, and email.

• Tick preferences for email or SMS offers.

2. Submit Form:

• Hand it to the receptionist or submit online via our website/app.

3. Start Using Benefits:

• You’ll receive a confirmation email or text.

• Points start adding up immediately after your first transaction.

• You can check your balance anytime through our app or by asking in-salon.

3. Short Report (200 words)

Encouraging customers to sign up for a loyalty scheme is essential for building long-term relationships. It helps convert occasional visitors into repeat clients and adds value to every interaction. When customers feel appreciated, they are more likely to return and refer others. A strong loyalty program also creates a sense of exclusivity and engagement, increasing brand loyalty.

From a business perspective, loyalty schemes boost retention and can lead to increased sales over time. When customers know they’re earning rewards or discounts, they often spend more to reach the next benefit tier. It also gives businesses the opportunity to market directly to their most loyal clients with special offers, increasing customer lifetime value.

By actively encouraging sign-ups, staff show that they care about providing good value and building trust. Even small gestures, like a welcome gift or birthday reward, create positive associations with the brand. Ultimately, loyalty programs create a win-win situation customers enjoy perks, and businesses enjoy consistent, long-term support.

Special Offer:

Buy-one-get-one-free for a limited time (2 weeks only).

Sales Pitch Script (approx. 80 words):

“Hi there! We’re running a special promotion on our best-selling Nourish & Glow Serum—buy one and get one free for a limited time!

⸻

Section 2: Understanding Opportunities to Promote Products

Task 3: Recognising and Maximising Sales Opportunities

Step 1: Seasonal Trends

• Winter months lead to drier skin, increasing demand for hydrating skincare like serums and moisturizers.

• Spring/summer focuses more on glowing, healthy skin due to more outdoor exposure.

• Holiday periods (e.g. Christmas, Valentine’s Day) are ideal for promoting beauty gift sets.

Step 2: Sales Opportunities

1. Bundling – Offer the serum with a matching moisturizer or face cleanser at a discounted price.

2. Upselling – Recommend the serum to customers buying a basic face wash.

3. Targeting Specific Audiences – Use Instagram influencers to target younger users interested in skincare trends.

Step 3: Comparison of Promotional Strategies

1. Social Media Ads – Great for reaching a younger demographic quickly with visuals and testimonials.

2. In-store Promotions – Allows customers to test products, ask questions, and buy immediately.

3. Loyalty Discounts – Encourages repeat purchases but may not attract new customers as effectively.

Most Effective Strategy:

Social media ads combined with in-store promotions are the most effective—ads bring in the customers, and in-store demos close the sale.

Step 4: Short Analysis (approx. 180 words)

Promotional sales play a vital role in building long-term customer relationships. When customers experience a product through a well-timed sale, it often leads to trust in the brand and repeat business. For example, a customer who tries a face serum during a BOGO deal and sees positive results is more likely to return to purchase at full price later.

Promotions also help create excitement and urgency, increasing foot traffic and online engagement. By capturing contact details during promotions, businesses can continue nurturing the customer through email marketing or loyalty schemes.

Effective promotions improve brand loyalty, especially when customers feel they are getting good value. This leads to positive word-of-mouth marketing, which is one of the most powerful tools for growth. Even if a promotion doesn’t lead to an immediate sale, it raises product awareness and encourages future purchases.

Ultimately, thoughtful promotional campaigns can increase both short-term sales and long-term customer retention.

# data[].attributes.body
Beauty Product Range: Skincare

Customer Record Card Template Includes:

Customer Details:
Name: Sarah Thomas
Contact: sarahthomas@example.com | 07712 345 678

Allergy Information:
Allergic to lavender oil and peanuts

Product Preferences & Past Purchases:
Prefers fragrance-free and sensitive-skin products. Past purchases include hydrating cleanser and SPF moisturiser.

Notes for Future Appointments:
Interested in trying anti-aging serums next visit. Suggested a vitamin C serum for brighter skin tone.

Sample Completed Card (Hypothetical):

Sarah Thomas visited on 12/04/2025. Purchased “Gentle Glow Hydrating Cleanser.” Expressed interest in adding a serum to her routine. Advised patch testing due to sensitive skin. Scheduled follow-up skin consultation in four weeks.

Reflection (200 words):

One of the key challenges in setting up customer record cards is ensuring that data collection complies with legal requirements such as GDPR, especially around consent and storage. Additionally, maintaining accurate and up-to-date records can be time-consuming, especially during busy periods. Another issue is making sure all staff members use the system consistently and know how to handle sensitive data securely.

Despite these challenges, customer record cards are incredibly beneficial. They allow beauty professionals to offer a personalised experience based on preferences, allergies, and purchase history. This level of attention builds trust and loyalty, as customers feel their needs are understood and valued. For example, recommending the right product based on their skin concerns or previous feedback can lead to a better experience and more successful results. These records also support efficient service delivery, as staff can quickly check product history and offer tailored promotions. Overall, customer record cards enhance satisfaction, improve service quality, and increase the likelihood of repeat visits.

Section 2: Using Record Cards to Increase Sales

Task 2: Identifying Sales Opportunities with Customer Records

Updating and Managing Customer Information:

How often: Update after every appointment or purchase to keep data current.

New info to add: Product reactions, new preferences, lifestyle changes (e.g., pregnancy), treatment outcomes, or event planning (e.g., weddings).

Sales Strategy:

Use purchase history to offer personalised promotions. For example, if a client frequently buys moisturisers, suggest a bundle with a matching cleanser and serum.

Recommend new or seasonal products based on their skin type and history.

Alert customers to limited-time offers on their favourite items through email or SMS.

Priority Customer Promotions:

Top 3 (Hypothetical):

1. Sarah Thomas – Regular skincare purchases

2. Anna Patel – Buys full treatment packages monthly

3. Jade Williams – Frequent buyer of makeup items for events

Incentives:

1. VIP early access to new product launches

2. 10% discount after five purchases

3. Invite to exclusive product testing or skincare workshops

Short Report (250 words):

The customer record card system is a powerful tool for increasing both sales and engagement. By collecting and analysing data such as purchase habits, allergies, and preferences, businesses can tailor their approach to suit each customer. This personalised strategy builds trust and enhances the overall customer experience, making clients more likely to return.

When staff can recommend products based on a customer’s history, it demonstrates care and attentiveness, which customers appreciate. For example, suggesting a new serum to someone who previously purchased a similar product not only adds value but also shows that you’ve paid attention. This often leads to successful upselling or cross-selling.

Targeting repeat customers also has a significant advantage. They already trust the business and are more likely to respond positively to loyalty offers or VIP perks. By offering exclusive deals to loyal clients, businesses create a sense of appreciation and community, which boosts retention. These loyal clients often become brand advocates, spreading the word and bringing in new customers through recommendations.

In short, record cards support a personalised, strategic sales approach that benefits both customers and the business by increasing revenue and enhancing loyalty.

Section 3: Maintaining and Complying with Data Protection Laws

Task 3: Legal Compliance & Best Practices

Importance of Data Protection:

Managing customer records means handling personal and sometimes sensitive information. It is crucial to protect this data to maintain customer trust and comply with the law. Mishandling customer information can lead to legal consequences and damage the business’s reputation. Clear consent must be obtained before collecting data, and customers should be informed about how their data will be used and stored.

Three Relevant Laws/Guidelines:

1. GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation):

Ensures customers have control over their personal data

Requires clear consent and the right to access or delete information

3. Data Protection Act 2018 (UK):

Provides a legal framework for collecting and processing personal data

Covers fairness, transparency, and data minimisation

5. ICO (Information Commissioner’s Office) Guidelines:

Offers detailed advice for businesses on safely handling data

Includes rules on secure storage, confidentiality, and breach reporting

By following these laws and best practices, businesses can ensure they are protecting customer privacy while delivering excellent, personalised service.

Section 1: Preparing a Retail Display

Task 1: Establishing Resources & Space for a Display

1. Assess the Display Area:

Location: A suitable location would be a high-footfall area near the store entrance or along a main aisle.

Resources: Shelving units, lighting (spotlights), signage for promotion, promotional posters, product stands, and hooks.

2. Problem-Solving Scenario:

Limited Space – Consultation: I would consult the store manager or the visual merchandising team.

Resolution: I would redesign the layout to create a compact yet attractive display, use vertical space more efficiently, and reduce non-essential stock on display to highlight bestsellers.

3. Reflection (150 words):

Proper planning is essential when setting up a retail display as it ensures space is maximised, visual appeal is maintained, and products are accessible. It helps ensure that lighting, signage, and shelving are coordinated to highlight products effectively, improving customer experience. An attractive, well-organised display can encourage impulse purchases, increase browsing time, and ultimately improve sales. Poorly planned displays may appear cluttered or confusing, leading to missed sales opportunities and a negative customer experience.

Section 2: Labelling Stock in a Retail Display

Task 2: Stock Labelling & Compliance

1. Label Check:

Inspect product labels for price, expiry date, allergens, and compliance with legal standards (e.g., correct spelling, units of measurement, legible font).

Verify product labels comply with store policies and industry regulations.

2. Correction Plan:

Scenario: A product label displays an incorrect expiry date.

Corrective Action: Immediately remove the product from the shelf, inform the supervisor, print and apply a corrected label, and check all similar products for the same error.

3. Best Practice Guide:

Step-by-step process:

1. Collect products requiring labelling.

2. Input accurate information (price, expiry, allergens) into labelling system.

3. Print and apply labels neatly and consistently.

4. Double-check compliance with organisational policies.

5. Conduct routine label checks for accuracy.

4. Short Report (200 words):

Incorrect labelling can result in legal consequences, loss of customer trust, and financial penalties. Mislabelled allergens or expired products can pose serious health risks and damage the store’s reputation. For instance, if a product with nuts is not labelled correctly, it could lead to allergic reactions. Pricing errors can cause confusion at the checkout and customer dissatisfaction. To prevent these issues, regular staff training is vital. If a label needs changing, the supervisor or store manager must be informed immediately. They will authorise the correction and ensure the issue is rectified following procedure. Accurate labelling helps ensure transparency, safety, and regulatory compliance.

Section 3: Setting Up & Maintaining a Retail Display

Task 3: Creating an Effective Product Display

1. Design a Retail Display Plan:

I would place high-demand products at eye level with clear signage and lighting to draw attention. Products would be grouped by theme (e.g., skincare, summer collection), using symmetry and coordinated colours to create an appealing layout.

2. Sales Promotion & Display Strategy:

Product placement at eye level, clear labelling, and strong lighting can significantly improve sales. Promotions like “Buy 1 Get 1 Free” signs and using interactive displays (e.g., testers, digital screens) can attract customers and increase dwell time.

Three techniques:

1. Eye-level placement

2. Colour-blocking to draw attention

3. Interactive elements like product testers or QR codes

Section 4: Dismantling a Retail Display Safely

Task 4: Safe & Organised Display Removal

1. Dismantling Process:

Steps:

1. Inform staff of scheduled dismantling.

2. Remove signage and promotional materials.

3. Carefully unpack and remove stock.

4. Disassemble shelving and fixtures.

5. Store or dispose of materials properly.

2. Workplace Safety Plan:

Hazards: Trips, cuts from tools, falling objects.

Prevention: Use PPE (gloves, closed shoes), keep walkways clear, use step ladders correctly, dispose of waste promptly, assign trained staff to dismantling.

3. Reflection (150 words):

Safe working practices ensure no injuries occur during dismantling, which protects staff and reduces downtime. Following safety procedures helps manage risk, maintain order, and reduce liability. Proper dismantling also allows for reusing materials, reducing waste and cost. Efficient removal can free up space quickly for new displays, improving productivity and customer flow.

Section 5: Evaluating the Impact of a Display on Sales

Task 5: Sales Analysis & Business Benefits

1. Explain how product displays influence sales trends:

Visually appealing displays attract more customer attention, increasing dwell time and the likelihood of purchase. Displays that highlight promotions or seasonal products can boost related sales. Strategic placement can lead to impulse buying, and engaging displays improve overall brand perception.

2. Evaluate a Display:

Short Report:

Over the past month, the skincare display at the entrance was monitored. Customer engagement increased, with more shoppers stopping and interacting with testers. Sales of featured items rose by 25%. Improvements include adding digital signage for better information delivery and rotating spotlight products weekly to maintain interest. Interactive elements and improved lighting helped attract more attention and enhanced the display’s effectiveness.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Assess the Display Area

Suitable location: Near the entrance of the store to catch attention or at high-traffic areas like checkout zones.

Resources needed:

Shelving or stands

Lighting fixtures

Signage (promotional signs, brand logos)

Security tags

Extension cables (for lighted displays)

2. Problem-Solving Scenario

If space is limited, I would consult the store manager and visual merchandiser.

Resolution: I would propose a vertical display (shelving/tiered stands) to save space and ensure visibility. I’d adjust the product range to highlight bestsellers and rotate stock more frequently.

3. Reflection (150 words)

Proper planning is crucial when setting up a retail display because it ensures the display is visually appealing, accessible, and aligned with promotional goals. An organized setup avoids clutter and helps with inventory control. Strategic placement can improve customer experience by guiding them easily to desired products and encouraging impulse buying. It impacts sales by drawing attention to new or seasonal items and increases customer satisfaction when products are easy to find and well-presented.

Section 2: Labelling Stock in a Retail Display

Task 2: Stock Labelling & Compliance

1. Label Check

Inspect labels for:

Price accuracy

Expiry dates (especially for cosmetics/skincare)

Allergen warnings

Brand and product descriptions

Legal requirements (e.g., INCI for cosmetics)

2. Correction Plan

Scenario: A face cream is missing its allergen warning.

Action: Remove the product from the shelf, inform the supervisor, and replace the label with the correct one as per compliance. Recheck other products from the same batch.

3. Best Practice Guide

Step-by-step:

1. Collect product data from supplier or product sheet.

2. Create or review label templates based on legal requirements.

3. Print labels using a verified system.

4. Cross-check label info (price, expiry, allergens).

5. Attach labels securely and visibly.

6. Verify after application.

Align with policies: Follow store display guides and government regulations (e.g., Trading Standards).

4. Short Report (200 words)

Incorrect labelling can result in serious legal consequences, including fines and loss of consumer trust. A mislabelled price can frustrate customers, while missing allergy information can lead to health risks and potential lawsuits. This negatively affects brand reputation and sales. Labels must be changed by trained personnel—typically the stock supervisor or floor manager. Regular training and audits help prevent errors and maintain compliance.

Section 3: Setting Up & Maintaining a Retail Display

Task 3: Creating an Effective Product Display

1. Design a Retail Display Plan

Product: Skincare line

Placement: Eye-level shelves for bestsellers, pyramid-style grouping, branded signage on top.

Labels: Neatly aligned under each product.

Lighting: Soft spotlighting to highlight products.

2. Sales Promotion & Display Strategy

Highlight value: Use promotional signage (“Buy 1 Get 1 Half Price”).

Position high-margin items at eye level.

Use testers or samples to encourage interaction.

Use symmetry and brand colors for visual appeal.

Strategy to attract attention:

Use bold signage and limited-time offers.

Interactive digital screens or QR codes.

Section 4: Dismantling a Retail Display Safely

Task 4: Safe & Organised Display Removal

1. Dismantling Process

Step-by-step:

1. Inform team and schedule a quiet time.

2. Turn off power if lighting/electronics are used.

3. Carefully remove signage, lights, and products.

4. Disassemble shelves and store/recycle materials.

5. Clean area thoroughly.

2. Workplace Safety Plan

Identify hazards: Sharp edges, electrical cords, heavy lifting.

Prevent accidents: Use proper PPE (gloves, closed shoes), follow manual handling procedures, avoid working alone.

3. Reflection (150 words)

Following safety procedures prevents injuries and maintains a professional workplace. Proper dismantling helps reduce breakages and business waste by salvaging reusable parts. Efficient disposal of damaged items minimizes environmental impact. Safe dismantling improves operational efficiency and prepares the space for new displays.

Section 5: Evaluating the Impact of a Display on Sales

Task 5: Sales Analysis & Business Benefits

1. Explain how displays influence sales

Well-placed, attractive displays encourage impulse purchases, boost visibility, and increase average transaction values. Highlighting promotions through displays drives urgency and repeat visits.

2. Evaluate a Display

Short report:

Customer engagement: High—many interacted with samples and QR codes.

Sales increase: 20% increase over a month for the featured product.

Improvements: Introduce a touchscreen tutorial and rotate spotlighted items weekly for freshness.
