Interested in any of shoes, buy it now via https://bit.ly/31vA2J5 There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a rigorous schedule, I actually think to be more productive one has to have a well organized plan; but what I’ve realized is that my best scouting days are the unplanned ones. On Monday August the 5th, I was led to the footlocker that’s about 15 mn from my house ( 15 mn drive of course ). Here is a quick recap of what I observed Subscribe to Housakicks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZPK... Visit Housakicks: https://www.housakicks.com

Good morning guys, this is Ty for Masa Kakes
0:02
And again this morning, I wanted to take to Foot Locker to see what they have on the wall
0:09
You know, I'm not going to try to go through different stores today. I'm just going to stick to Foot Locker in my location
0:15
You know, it's better to do like one location and kind of like dig through it a little bit
0:19
So I just want to show what they have on the wall, like what's on sale and what's on sale and what they have new that's on there that they haven't actually put on their website
0:25
Because that website is pretty poor as far as like how they update
0:29
it and it's funny information on Footlocker's website is terrible I mean they need to revamp that
0:34
so what I do is I'm going to go in there and just show you what's on the wall and then whatever
0:39
you want if you want to buy something just I will have those items on my website store and I can
0:45
pick it off for you for a fee but you know it's just to let you know that retail is in bad
0:49
shape right now as far as like stuff selling out that's not happening and you already know so I've
0:55
talked about several times so I'm not going to waste too much time on that but I'm going to go
0:58
to the store and then show what they have and if you want anything there just be sure to go

4:42
we've got a couple of things here that's about. These. That's the Greek, Greek, the Greek new color
4:53
That's pretty much it so we'll wrap it up now. Hey guys, this is Taib and I'm done with the scouting
4:59
I ended up picking up two shoes. They were Rajas for women and then I got these and these are all customers' orders
5:07
They bought it from my website and like I said I went and picked it up for them. Now why am I showing you this
5:12
I just want to let you know that my property service is still active. You better take advantage of it because there's a lot of things you can get for like a cheaper price if you use that
5:20
I'm only charging about 10% for picking it up. for picking it up. Now let's get back to the topic at hand. So my observation, I started walking to
5:27
the foot locker. The first thing that I saw was on the wall and on the display windows, they had the
5:34
Adidas Ultra Boost and Adidas NMDs. And then you, of course, have the display case where their latest
5:40
item is on there, and this was the Jordan 4 Cool Grays. So Foot Locker does a good job with that kind
5:45
of stuff. They show you exactly what they want you to see. But then as I walked into the store
5:49
the front left side of the wall had a lot of Nike running shoes and Nike lifestyle sneakers
5:56
And I'm not sure why they did that because a lot of time when people walk into a store
6:01
they already know what they want. So Jordan Brained came after the Nike lifestyle and Nike sneakers
6:06
Now, a lot of Nike shoes and Nike lifestyle sneakers were on sale. And the Jordan Brains and the Jordan Retros, they also had a few sale items on there
6:15
Now, after the Jordan, you had the veins on the backwood, you had a lot of filer, a lot of
6:19
Rebuck and then different other brains. Now on the right side, there was a kid section
6:24
and it was the same pattern. It was Nike running, Nike basketball
6:28
and then it was the Jordan Retro in kid sizes. And after that you had the veins
6:32
you had the filler, you had the new balances, and then you had rebark and other brains
6:38
Now all these plates these other brains are relegated to the back wall because I guess Footlog is not really trying to push those or maybe they are trying to force the customer to try and head over to the Jordan items so they can see everything else because the vent
6:51
used to be on the front side so they switched that back now interestingly the Adidas
6:56
NMDs and Adidas Ultrabus were near the counter where you pay for your items so I guess
7:01
they really want you to see those but I still find a little bit of fault with the layout I don't
7:08
quite like that because the experience for me wasn't unique. I kind of know what I was doing
7:12
When I walked in, I knew exactly where to go and find my stuff. Now, what you want to do a lot
7:17
of time, you want to create some kind of an environment where when the customer comes in there
7:21
it feels like this is crazy, this is a good environment. And I guess that's the reason why sometimes
7:25
foot locker tends to switch things up a little bit, maybe to keep you guessing. But 99% of the time
7:32
when I walk into a foot locker or any retail, so I know where to go. The only place that I walked into
7:37
and I was kind of like amazed was a Jimmy Joss and that was all the way in Pidgey County
7:42
But it was almost like a basketball arena and that experience was amazing
7:48
Now, what are the things that I want to talk about? Retail is in bad shape, like I said
7:53
And now is the best time to be a consumer slash collector because a lot of things that you want
7:58
you'll be able to get at a discounted price. So I will say to you, don't rush it
8:02
And if you see anything on the website that you like that I showed you in the video
8:07
just go and buy it for my website. I'll go pick it up for you. Okay? So that's all I wanted to say this morning
8:12
Again, this is what I picked up this morning, and this is all customers order that I need to pack up and ship
