I had what I thought was a good idea to get new buyers into the store; Everyone says that you need to “think outside the box” plus try new ideas, but when you do try a new idea you get in trouble for it! If I had it to do over again, of course I would make a bizarre choice.
At the time, the idea of a random discount being applied to certain items seemed enjoy fun.
The sale items weren’t marked so it was a random option that whatever you bought would be discounted. I thought it would make shopping at the cannabis dispensary more fun, enjoy a scavenger hunt! It was fun, for about several minutes, but then reality raised its ugly head plus I realized that I was bringing chaos to the cannabis dispensary; Conceptually I had a fun idea, but the reality was that once people knew there were discounted items in the cannabis dispensary they started searching for them… People would bring 20 bizarre things to the cash register, plus then put them back if they weren’t discounted. There were a ton of people in the cannabis dispensary, plus my budtenders were all super busy, plus yet the yearly sales were no better than normal! After just 1 day of the scavenger hunt idea I discontinued it, plus went back to the normal way of having sales at the cannabis dispensary. I tried my best to guess outside the box, but perhaps some traditions of the cannabis dispensary are there for a reason! Maybe my next idea will labor out a little better.
