“The Bankson Group and Management One have been an extremely useful resource that has put real data behind our decision-making process.  Being able to track inventory, sales, product turns and profitability by category each month has been very valuable as we have seen our general merchandise sales grow by 12-15% for 3 years running.”

“David and Phil of The Bankson Group encourage all to review and drill into inventory to apply experience and data to drive sale floor decisions. Monthly check-ins help the team become competent in the retail metrics and understand the impact each person has on the success of the store. Maine has seen a 48% increase in gross sales of logo clothing department.

We have become students of retail, gaining insights into our thoughts and observations, using sale pricing and markdowns effectively. Overall, we have seen improved staff development in store operations and retail knowledge which instills confidence in our decision-making and positively impacts store performance.
