Welcome, great video's, cowboy send me your link about 4 months ago, I learn a lot from yours

if a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video is worth a million- most people remember visually (might forget half of what you say, but remember videos)

Many businesses have facebook accounts- if you do have videos on youtube, you can share the link on your facebook page-this works-we did that with christmas entree's and got blasted by requests

One video-the small crown pork roast with one loin , really worked out well, with many stores, seeing the step by step sequence,
thats the power of video, i could describe it, but again, the pictures were priceless- I got hundreds of emails, thanking me for putting that up

The boneless crown roast with apple slices, was another one, many folks tried for the first time- some stores will sell 80 of these around holidays

Is there a forum to exchange merchandising ideas?

Welcome to the club!!!!!

That looks really good, reminds me of my Winn-Dixie days. My last market, my sales per man hours were around $497.50 and it was not hard merchandising, keeping the counter full was the problem. It was a very high volume market, and I had myslef and one other cutter for crap pay. Just didn't really have time for this stuff, the new market I am in, is a better clientale and way better merchandisable. I post pictures soon, and by the way Maine, nice videos. I'm still a young buck, but my 11 years experience, I have taught myself one thing. Always watch others and what and how they do it, and you put forth the best idea you take from them. This does pay off!
