I've made a very nice living and career printing signs, reprinting signs, putting up signs, taking down signs, changing signs, reprinting signs... 10 years and still going. Easy money and easy work. Thanks SHC for the repeat work and your incompetence for keeping my going.

If a tree falls in the forest, does it make a sound?

If shc promotes business without telling anyone, does anyone know to shop?

LOLZ! This reminds me of all of the endless c-appy memos I used to write for promotions that were impossible to implement.

When I would point out the obvious flaws in the "strategy" to "leadership" they would look at me bewildered and they would comment on "negativity" when all I was doing was pointing out the lack of labor, product, advertising and resources.

They were always SHOCKED when these promotions either failed to produce sales or were poorly executed because of the complexity.These events NEVER drove sales....EVER.

I see nothing has changed, and some poor slob is writing this BS directive instead of me....

Thanks for sharing, OP. How does this relate to the Friends & Family sale that will be going on simultaneously for the first week?

So what's the big deal on where its posted - its the last time anyone will need to do this

Under new management will change or discard it

How will this accomplish anything, when nobody comes into the stores?

And, no, the Associates are not going to bother promoting anything on social media, or evangelizing to their family and friends. Everyone knows better by now.

With no foot traffic, such trick will do no good.
