I'm the Assistant Manager at DG. I stay marketing myself everyday. I shoot videos and have gained a lot of business from just being nice and talking to everybody. Building relationships is the key.
Building relationships is key because you never know who you run into!!! Glad you appreciate the video and continue to market yourself. Life is what we make it!!!
I have been working at dollar general for 3 years, but wanting to know how to become a key holder do you have the steps of how you do that job, I wanting to learn. I love working at my job, Just want know do you have a list of what you do at closing at a key holder and • LEAD SALES ASSOCIATE
Yessssirrrr. Im thinking about applying Dg. Just looking at some videos. I didn't expect to get so much positive advice and serenaded by a lovely voice. I love it. Yall stay safe. Kings🤴🏾💫
I’m a hired on LSA I’ve been here for 3 weeks, I work in a big DG in a small town and I’ve taken a lot of business from our other local stores, I greet everybody I speak to everyone at the register I speak to everyone I see as I’m recovering. I ask how days are going I tell everyone to have a nice day, evening or night, I’ve heard a lot of bad things about being employed at DG but I have an awesome manager. The other employees need some work but that’s what I’m here for. I came from managing a Major auto service/ oil change shop (won’t put the name just to not advertise for them for personal reasons) and I have a very successful record. I was hired to train fast and manage new stores and train new employees so hopefully that comes through. I like these videos I like Yalls vibe I wish my people were like y’all they’re all quiet they clock in do the minimum and clock out. But I’m here to change that baby! Thank y’all for being proud. Be proud of making money no mater how you make it. Be proud.
St.MichaelDefendUsInBattle Thank you so much for sharing this with me! It’s amazing that ppl see my video and comment to let me know things like this! Just continue to stay positive in your own space so that you can continue to be positive throughout the store! Let’s keep going and THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
Thank you, really appreciate the feedback!! It was suppose to come off as that cuz I wasn’t even expected my potna to come pull up on me with the camera
Heyo! I just applied for a sales associate position! I went in to speak to the manager beforehand because she seemed so nice and I asked for advice, you two have similar mindsets! Quick question: (it's going to be my first job if all goes well)... is it overwhelming? Is there so much to do sometimes that you feel swamped? I think that's my biggest concern- I just want to do my best and not freak out 😅... anyways, I loved your video! Keep up the great attitude 😊
At times it can be overwhelming especially when the truck comes, you have to remember where stuff goes and put it on the shelves so customers have more stuff to choose from! All you have to do is come to work with a great attitude and everything else will fall into place! Thank you for your feed back and you should check more of my videos out
Bro I just got hired at my local DG and I applied simply because I liked the vibes in there as a customer and built up mad rapport with the employees working. I noticed a "now hiring" sign on the door and asked "Sup with that job sitch? I'm thinking about applying." The people working said "DO IT" so i went home and applied then got called in for an interview the very next day. Holla For That Dolla
That’s what I like to hear! Every dollar general isn’t the same so for you to get good vibes there that’s definitely a good thing! Happy for you! Ow it’s your turn to make it a even greater environment so customers can spend that money and also create genuine relationships with ppl
@@rupertsmithable Man it feels so good to hear that! I been doing my best to just be a light in the world and yea I’m doing the best I can, thanks for asking
I want to apply got a dollar general but I've heard so much crap about how I shouldn't. I'm also super shy and suck at confrontation? What's your advice is there a lot of angry rude customers?🤦🏻♀️
There are a lot of angry rude customers in any work place! You just have to have good energy and stay postive working at a place like this! It’s pretty chill every now and then, you may face some rude ppl but don’t let them determine how your day will go it’s your store so you make sure the environment is great!
Apply for it and remain positive about the situation! Meaning come to the job with great energy and it’s gone rub off on your coworkers and also the customers coming in the store.
I've just started working at DG and have seen so many negative things about working there. It's nice to see people be happy about their job. These guys seem like they would be fun to work with.
Dollar General is expanding big time. I love working retail and was thinking of applying. How do you and your coworkers like it? Is there room for growth?
Don’t do it dollar General sucks ass slave wages and slave work. I worked there for a year and no matter the hours you work you aren’t paid for those hours. The only person who is salaried is the manager. So if you work 20 hours a week as a sales associate, you only make a random small amount of money
I'm going to be starting DG as my first ever job very soon! Do you think they'll let me wear gloves(like medical ones not leather)? I'm a bit germaphobic with the c0r0na going around and all, and I know money is filthy so I just wanna be EXTRA safe! 💪😷
YEA THEY SHOULD AT THE ONE I WORKED AT THEY FOR SURE LET ME WEAR GLOVES. YEA YOU GOTTA DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO TO PROTECT YOURSELF WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON!!
@@jodihowell8077 mangers like you will keep the store environment well in tact! Congrats on the new position and when you are a great person people would love to come and work for you!!
@@JAKFOXGaming not really just be honest and be yourself!! Whatever you do outside of work that can interfere with days of work let them know!! That’s a step and stone job
@@Finaohhh interview went great all i gotta wait for is the corporate to email me a form to fill out and i fill it out n send it back the manager and everyone in there is friendly so hopefully i start next week
@@JAKFOXGaming that’s great news man! Happy to hear, continue to develop as a person and when you get hired you set the energy of the store!! Keep in touch let me know how things go!!
De'Aysha Simmons Nothin wrong with being nervous! Just interact with the customers, speak to them and have great energy while you working! The little things mean a lot to those ppl that come in store!!
De'Aysha Simmons Make sure you learn the register cuz you don’t want to be slow and your line get long! Ppl get mad when they standing in a long line and they can try to make you feel like it’s your fault! Just be yourself and go have fun cuz it’s a cool job
De'Aysha Simmons you got this Mama, once you learn the register it’s nothing. Just talk to everyone make them feel important while you’re with them at the register try to talk to them as you’re ringing them up and checking them out. Ask if they’ve found everything alright and make sure to ask if they found everything they needed and if not try to help them find what they’re looking for, just be personal and you’ll do great you got this. I’m an LSA at a big store in a small town and trust me, just talking to these people in a positive way has gained me a lot of new and returning customers and I’ve been on for 3 weeks.
Mainly found out be Cashier is just being yourself, love Dollar General such a nice company to work for I've even started my 41K Its good retirement plan. So good look, just always keep the store clean, that one thing good, just keep in mind clean store, Customers like, if you don' know where something is just asking your leader.
@@Finaohhh I love working there but the people who I work with are rude and the manager is terrible. So it’s hard to have a good time working but the days the manager isn’t there it’s great!
@@Finaohhh I’m about to move out of state in January but I’m not sure if I should try to find a new job before then or work here for 2 months and try to stick through it. The worst part is my manager told me I could work the hours I asked for which is I can’t work past 3-4 because I have stuff to do and classes and she has been scheduling me to close and things like that and I told her at the interview that I can’t work past 4 and she said that was fine and she would not work me past then and she has me working 11-6 today and I’m so mad. Because now I’m going to have to stay up way later doing my classes and ughh it stresses me out
No foreal it’s all about the coworkers! If they are assholes the job will suck I made sure we created an environment where that didn’t happen!! Wish we could of helped
Unapologetic_Virgo Lol I appreciate that but I don’t work there anymore I’m thankful for the opportunity that I had over ther cuz I got to meet all kinds of ppl at the store
You look a LOT like the guy working at my dollar general in New Jersey . Difference is I’m surprised he still has a job as he is very rude and acts like a tough gangsta throughout the store. Always seems bothered to help any customer and walks around throwing up gang signs. Then again the manager is also very shady so it’s no surprise the employees have a chip on there shoulders.
David Hardcore yea that’s not what I do! I make sure everybody in the store has great energy coming in the store! Ppl have a lot of things going in life so if I keep my energy high everyone else in the store that comes in will feed off that
Kent Shelby II facts! I’ve noticed your positive energy throughout this whole video. You’re the truth and a good man to interact with. Keep at it bro 💪
Not far from yall I'm from crossett arkansas need to come check yall store out man I work at dollar store here work at 2 of them its a awesome job my hours are going up because everyone saying I'm doing a good job
@@drethechosenone8890 ppl take one thing out of everything you say and get mad cuz it’s something they don’t like! Dude clearly missed the whole message out of the video!
