[QUOTE="audiolife, post: 2476221, member: 541383"] it might have changed we used to have to get so far in mecp...all in all ended up just being a reason to fire people. the 2 stores i worked at took $$$$$ too serious from our department. we wouldnt be a make it or break it department for the store but we could have been what keeps people coming back. our stores car audio was lucky to do 5% total sales of the store as we normally averaged 60-100k a day as a store and 600-800 k on black friday. if you all do your job well the first time that department makes money and most of all MAKES customers return customers. if its all slam bam installs you will never sell any higher end gear (i actually sold q forms and prefab q logic boxxes) and when done on a personable level could hit 60%-70%(i had days where i personaly made our department top 5 in the company) on psp's when not rushed and i wouldnt have to exagerate the plan. with parts , labor the sale and the psp you woud make as much $$ as you would if you made twice as many bad sales and did a slam bam no explanation job. what was realy bad though is when we were slammed and still had to go out on the floor and help a sale. when the people up front ask 2 or 3 installers how long stuff will take without the installers talking it gets rather crazy. a service imho isnt like fast food and it shouldnt be treated or thought of as such EVEN if it is only a deck that car you are working on is more than likely someones baby reguardless if anyone thinks its a pos or not... the way they guage things isnt on a per job/time basis its a per dollar/time basis. it can get very twisted [/QUOTE]
