Straight off the heels of their "We Love Our Customers" promotion, The Shoe Village and Clarks continues to show appreciation, but this time it was towards their sales staff.
On February 17 the company launched its first ever "Feel the Love" staff incentive program. The two-week internal promotion honored the sales associate with the highest sales over a two-week period.
The winner received a Samsung S4 cellular phone and bragging rights for the next 12 months. This year's winner was Eyvonne Mackey, a sales associate at The Shoe Village and Clarks Mall at Marathon location.
Mackey was thrilled to be announced as the winner and said the competition was a learning experience for her.
"It was a journey, but it was also a life lesson that the race isn't for the swift, but the one that endures to the end,"she said. She also added that she knew she was the winner even before the results were revealed, because she felt confident in her efforts.
Eyvonne has been an employee of G. R. Sweeting for almost two years and expressed that working at The Shoe Village and Clarks has allowed her to grow as a sales associate.
Marisa Rahming, retail operations manager for The Shoe Village and Clarks, stated that all of the employees were to be commended for their efforts and that this was just one of many initiatives that the company has planned for its employees.
"It is important that we continue to encourage our employees to excel in the field of customer service and it is even more important that we continue to show them that the company appreciates them, and their efforts are not going unnoticed."
