Circuit City Faces Final Decision Today

Hey John, there are plenty of alternatives to the bix boxes. Call an AVAD distributorship and they will help you find a qualified independent dealer that will not only give you better service, but in a lot of cases will be very competitive price wise with the big boxes.

I don\'t want to shop at Best Buy or Walmart for my electronics. I don\'t want to shop at Circuit City either, I\'d just rather shop there than any of my alternatives. Circuit City is poorly managed, their workers are poorly payed and unmotivated and they just don\'t feel like they really want to stay in business. Best of luck to the soon to be unemployed folks. I truly hope we come out of this mess soon.

I sent an e-mail to the editor of TWICE about 5 years ago, when CC dropped their commission sales force. In part I said that the combination of eleminating the appliance dept and dropping the commissions sales, was a path to desaster. I stated that \"CC had built its\' reputation and client base on the knowledge of the sales people and the quality of their customer service.\" This never got a response, and now all the analyists are shocked at what is happening. I say that the pendulum needs to come back to the attitude of the 70\'s and 80\'s as far as how to motivate a salesforce, or e-commerce will be the dominant driving force on product sales. Before anyone says \"so let\'s move on and start \'e-trading\'\" you better be prepared to not only compete against your local companies but be prepared to compete globally. That, oh wise business entrepreneurs, is only for the seleted few.
