Re: Welcome to L2 badges
Hiya Guys,
After reading through what has been said I felt I had to reply as I believe many of you have misconceptions of my actual duties at the football club. I know in a lot of companies the Commercial Manager has major direct contact with the lines and choice of stock that we have within a store or shop, at Stanley that is different. I have no handling on what we can and can't order. I am not passing the buck at all and I like you would like to see new and improved revenue streams here at the club coming through the club shop and elsewhere and in a month or so you will probably see the media and promotional outcomes of the said new revenue streams (which is my job! both promotional and gaining new businesses :-) ) but the ordering of stock is not one of my duties at Accrington Stanley. As many of you know there are a lot of changes going on behind the scenes at the club, which means that there are greater workloads for each member of staff but I can assure you that many of the issues raised will be covered and sorted within the next few weeks by the appropriate persons involved.
But I can assure you that I am doing my utmost to bring as much revenue into the football club as I can. The outline of my job in case some of you don't know is to bring revenue into the club through schemes/sponsorship and advertising, making use of the locality and nationwide businesses. Some examples of which are sponsorships such as perimeter boards, stand sponsorships, match sponsorships, shirt/short sponsorships etc, etc. I understand why some of you think that the club shop is my domain but in reality it really isn't. The commerical aspects are directly contacting businesses for continued support throughout the season and not really the merchandise side of things.
I hope that helps! And if you have any good ideas that you think we could implement then please let me know....................
Thanks
Karen
