Sales Promotion & Customer Engagement:
• Proactively promote new products, inform customers about ongoing brand promotions, and identify sales opportunities by engaging customers in conversations both in person and over the phone.

• Assist walk-in and phone customers by helping them identify and purchase the correct parts and equipment for their needs.
• Proactively recommend additional products or accessories that may enhance customer satisfaction or improve their workflow.
• Handle orders efficiently, ensuring accurate product details and customer information, and process payments both in-person and over the phone.
• Assemble hoses, wands, and other accessories for customers, ensuring they receive a fully operational solution.
• Maintain an organized, clean, and welcoming showroom and warehouse space for customers.
Inventory Management:
• Ensure stock levels of pressure washers, parts, and accessories align with customer demand, supporting both retail and repair department needs.
• Regularly monitor sales trends and product usage to anticipate inventory needs and prevent shortages.
• Use QuickBooks to create purchase orders, track inventory levels, and audit incoming and outgoing shipments for accuracy.
• Perform regular physical inventory checks, reconcile any discrepancies, and oversee the annual inventory count.
• Collaborate with vendors to place orders, negotiate freight terms, and ensure timely delivery of goods.
Shipping & Receiving:
• Process inbound and outbound shipments, ensuring accurate labeling, packaging, and documentation.
• Handle customer orders by pulling items, preparing them for shipment, and coordinating with carriers for pickup or drop-off.
• Manage returns, freight damage claims, and ensure all freight-related charges are accurately documented.
Warehouse & Showroom Maintenance:
• Keep the parts room, warehouse, and showroom organized and presentable, ensuring that all items are easily accessible.
• Occasionally assemble products for display or sale, using basic tools.
Team Collaboration:
• Work closely with the service department and sister store to ensure stock transfers are accurate and timely.
• Communicate regularly with colleagues about pending orders, inventory needs, and any opportunities for efficient ordering to support repairs and sales.
Required Skills:
• Excellent attention to detail and the ability to handle numbers accurately.
• Strong interpersonal skills, with the confidence to assist customers and offer product recommendations.
• A willingness to learn the functions of our products and inventory.
• Ability to manage inventory systems like QuickBooks and ensure stock accuracy.
