Best Buy Revealed Audits

Has anyone performed the Best Buy revealed audits? Care to share your experience? I see there is a lengthy training video. I don't mind the training video at all. Just wondering if it's a shop experience enjoyable enough to repeat hence making the video training worth the trouble.
TIA

To be honest I would like to know the same. I think I would enjoy the work and the fee posted is not the worst for 4 hours of mindless work. I know how this usually goes though when companies say "the audit should only take you......"

Anyone have hints to do these in the 2.5 to 4 hour time frame? Thanks.

I usually get them done in 2 hours if they don't have a SWAS, otherwise 2 1/2 - 3 hours. I usually start an hour before the store opens. I usually get everthing I can finished before the store opens. I try to enter the Plano from home before I go and then double check it at the store. What state are you in? Send me a message and I can try to help you more.

It takes longer the first time to get acclimated with everything. From then on it is easy as most stores are pretty similar in setup.

I'd love to know the tricks of the trade for the Best Buy audits. My first took me a painful 7 hours, I'm slow but thorough when it comes to the safety part of the audit. How do you do the Plano from home?

There is another thread about the Best Buy audits, you'll want to look at. The person may share some of the tips & tricks. I did my first one & swore that it was my last because it took me 7 hours and the documentation was not the best in my opinion. They are reworking the documentation to make it more user friendly for the novice; I gave some very blunt feedback that there is no way to complete the audit & do a good job in 2-2 1/2 hours without fudging the data.

Also depends on the store. Some locations are small and some are huge.

Can you give me the link to the other BB discussion? It doesn't come up in the search. Thanks.
I agree with your time assessment. If you really go thru the steps of the audit program, it just takes a lot of time.

I’m having trouble finding the thread. I’ll keep looking.

@tstewart3 - big senior moment on my part. This is the thread, I’m not sure which other one I’m thinking about.

Was the 7 hours for the old audits or the current ones?

I did one of the larger stores today and it took me about 3 hours. I had a few minor problems that delayed it. I enter all the Plano numbers into the Fastfield app from home and then when Im at the store just verify that the SKU and part numbers are right. The first thing when I enter the store usually at 9 am. I tell the manager I need to see the Comm room, the Precinct and the Install Bay right away. After that I look for the container of wipes in one of the areas required. I usuall do the SWAS and Lively Plano's then.

When I first started doing the audits about 2 1/2 years ago the first 2 took me two days. They were longer audits then but it took me a while to figure it out.

Where is everyone from? I'm from Minnesota but have audited in Montana, Wyoming, South and North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan, Colorado and Indiana.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions. I would be happy to help.

How much time do you spend if you add the time at home and time instore?

I like starting them at home just to save a little time at the store. It only takes me about 10-15 minutes doing the part at home. The normal size stores take me about 2 1/2 hours plus the 15 minutes at home. There are some newer smaller stores here in Minnesota that take me 2 hours.
