Not only is Terry’s goal realistic but it will help her be successful in her business. Terry’s idea for her eyewear business will be successful because of her effective planning and well thought forecast on her financial objectives. Terry estimated her investment on the product should be 75,000 to 95,000 in inventory to begin with considering off peak times when customers are likely to buy.
With this job I really enjoyed being able to dress the mannequins, before any customers came into the store. I had to give them a sense of style to sell and advertise clothing in my section of the store. In Forever 21 all the rooms in the store have different themes. I particularly worked in the plus size section of the store, so I had to put all those themes inside of one room. I adored being able to pick the clothes I liked for the mannequin and choosing accessories, purses etc.
