Waiting to be Promoted

Posted By Twyla on December 17, 2007 @ 3:35 pm

I am currently employed by a company that produces designer inspired purses. It is the best job I have ever had. I am a sales rep for the company and it is not work at all, as the bags pretty much sell themselves. They are high quality and low cost, which makes a great combination.

My supervisor recently asked me how I felt about the company expanding to also sell imported hand knotted rugs. I was impressed that they wanted my opinion, but was unsure as to how I should answer. I don’t know much about selling rugs, but I suggested that we talk to some of our current clients to find out if they thought this would be a good business venture.

I was doing some marketing at a small men’s active wear store and mentioned the rugs to the manager I was speaking to. He didn’t think that they would sell in his store, but thought the prices to be very reasonable and thought in the right environment, they would sell just fine.

I am not sure whether it is going to happen or not, but I am happy to be a part of what might be a whole new branch of business for our company.
