In the
Grizzly Gear store, we provide
many services to our customers that increase our amount of
patrons. One service we provide includes
custom clothing
through the use of our heat press. We are typically able to
carry out these orders within one or two business days,
either by means of special delivery to faculty or postage to
our customers. This special service increased our holiday
sales volume! Our clerks are trained to let customers
know that if they don't find a size or design they like on
the shelves, we could create one for them. We also offer extended
shopping experiences such as being open on Small Business
Saturday. For the last couple of years, Small Business
Saturday has been not very productive. In
response, we dropped Small Business Saturday and came up
with Christmas in Grizzly Land.
With this extended shopping
event, we set up a photo area and handed out hot chocolate
and candy canes. Our mascot donned Grizzly Gear apparel and
mingled with shoppers. We sold many Store Gift Cards during
this event too |

The
goal of Grizzly Gear’s floor
Display Merchandising is to provide
many products for all ages and sizes! The store
features sections that give customers a wide
variety of clothing and accessories. One of the
unique areas is the Big &
Tall racks. These
racks have sizes from 2XL to 5XL
so no
customers are left out! Another distinctive area of
the store is a Cub Corner
(Infant and Children clothing area). Until
October of 2019 this section was small and in one
corner of our store. Our customers who needed these
sizes, found it difficult to find what they needed
so we moved this section to some tall racks near the
center of the store and labeled it with our new
signs. The Cub Corner has clothes for babies
and all youth sizes so that the whole family can get
something while shopping at Grizzly Gear!
The focus of Grizzly Gear is
to provide “gear” to the fans of Northside High
School no matter how old they are or their size! |

Cross Merchandising
is the retail practice of marketing or
displaying products from different categories
together, in order to generate additional revenue
for the store, sometimes also known as add-on sales,
incremental purchase or secondary product placement.
Grizzly Gear uses Cross Mix Merchandising to help
display the latest trends in fashion and influence
the customers to buy the particular merchandise. It
attracts the customers into the store and thus
increase the revenue and profit. In this display we
used 6 of the items we sell in the store.
