Drug Store Shop - Any Hints?

I do ink audits at a drug store that I have mixed feelings about.

I am curious if anyone can provide hints around the name of the company that has posted recent shops for them.

I’m hoping to do two shops at the same location if everything aligns properly.

The ink shops often are an exercise in futility at the drug stores. It’s the same thing over and over and over. No one has the signs. Always out of stock. Aisles a mess. COVID signage 50/50. They literally take less than 10 minutes but I’m really not sure what I am accomplishing. I guess it’s not up for me to decide the value in them.

And thanks. I haven’t shopped with them since sporting events have “gone away”.

Value? Potentially completing two or more assignments in the same or nearby locations. If you personally shop in the location anyway, you earn a few bucks for doing a little work in just a few minutes. Informing the client of conditions: you mentioned missing signs, low inventory, and messy displays.

Those conditions beg the question: Would it be helpful if a merchandiser made a weekly or monthly visit for the brand?

Agreed, but nothing changes. I’ve done the ink shops at the same various drug stores for the last several years and have yet to see any improvement. But like I said, not my problem. I’ll take the $10 or $12 for a few minutes of work, double up with an Instacart delivery (they deliver for both big name drugs stores) and call it a day.

There you go. You do your bit, get a few bucks and keep going.
