Retail isn’t just a job; it’s where leaders are born. If you’ve ever wondered how the skills honed on the store floor can shape tomorrow’s leaders, this is your chance to find out. On August 28th at 2 p.m. EST, ENDVR.io will be hosting a can’t-miss webinar, “Retail Roots: How Store Floor Experience Shapes Leaders,” where industry experts will dive into how hands-on retail experience can spark leadership development and drive business success.
Why should you mark this on your calendar? Because this isn’t just another webinar — it’s an opportunity to hear firsthand experiences from those who’ve worked their way up from the store floor. The skills developed in retail — mastering customer engagement, understanding brand loyalty, or learning to adapt quickly — are essential for daily operations and long-term success. Engaged retail associates who understand your product sell 69% more, with those completing multiple education sessions selling up to 123% more. Whether you’re managing a store, leading a brand, or working on the floor, the shared experiences and practical advice will show how investing in your sales associates today can lead to stronger leadership and increased revenue tomorrow.
Also – we are asking all those who attend to share their story, and when they do, ENDVR will include your voice in our upcoming Retail Roots webinar alongside our expert panelists, amplifying you and your brand’s presence! Plus, everyone who contributes to this important conversation and joins the webinar live will be entered to win a $250 gift card to their favorite retail store!
The panel features seasoned professionals who started right where you are — on the retail floor. Take Kit Campoy, for instance. With two decades of retail experience, she’s now a content creator for SaaS retail tech companies. Kit knows the ins and outs of retail, and she’ll discuss how her journey from the floor to the tech industry has shaped her understanding of leadership. Then there’s Katina Lindsey, who has been with Victoria’s Secret for 25 years. Katina doesn’t just manage a store; she builds high-performing teams and creates an environment where everyone thrives. Victoria’s Secret isn’t just any brand—it’s a retail powerhouse. Katina will reveal how they keep their floor dynamic and engaged — and drive revenue in-store.
Steve Gendron, CEO of ENDVR.io, will share stats and insights, explaining why and how investing in your retail associates is more than just a good business move — it’s a long-term strategy for building brand loyalty, creating strong brand ambassadors, and setting the stage for the next generation of leaders, all while increasing sales and sell-through in wholesale.
Why does this matter for brands and retailers? Because your sales associates are more than just people who ring up transactions. They’re your brand’s first impression, the front line of customer engagement, and with the right tools and support, they can drive revenue like never before. By investing in their development, you’re not just increasing today’s sales but building tomorrow’s leaders. Imagine your best products being championed by associates who aren’t just selling but are living your brand.
