Introduction to District Manager Store Visit
Making your store visits across the region consistent and easily understandable can be tough. Just as hard can be making that information easily available to your dealer principals and account managers.
A District Manager Store Visit checklist may be just what you need to allow you to focus on managing multiple locations and solid follow-through on assigned tasks. Our Elevate GO product team has built out an example of that type of checklist below. This can give you an idea of how to implement your own and how helpful it can be to standardize your visits.
