In these tough economic times companies
are looking for individuals who can work
independently and maintain a professional
outlook without constant tutoring. There
are companies looking to employ people
who can work as a contractual
merchandiser in every state in the US.
If you work well without supervision
then these companies are looking for
you. Your goal in life should be to join
this very profitable and fulfilling career
of merchandising. Have you ever
wondered who erects and maintains
the displays in department stores. Let's
just take a moment to visualize this.
Every store that you have ever entered
has some type of display. Just imagine
if you were the person providing the
majority of these displays. The pay per
display on an average is $130 dollars.
Now if you erect a display and maintain
it throughout it's predetermined duration
date, then you are paid $130 dollars for
that project. Lets say you had 10 displays
in which you erected and maintained for
a duration of one week. Lets do the math.
10 displays per week at $130 dollars per
display. This equates to $1300 dollars per
week. Now calm down and let me explain
something to you. It takes a little time to
really get proficient at setting up and
maintaining numerous displays. You can't
just jump into maintaining 10 displays at
once. So lets get realistic. Have you had
any retail experience? If not, you need to
read up on how to read a planogram. This
is the actual diagram, blueprint, or
merchandising visual, if you will, for
erecting a specific display. This is the only
experience you will need to get started in
this lucrative field of merchandising. So
lets read up on how to setup and maintain
a display, then reap the rewards of an
experienced merchandiser.
