Silent Sales Staff
The second best name for a mannequin is a silent sales staff, because thats exactly what a mannequin is. When positioned correctly it can direct customers through your store visually so theres no need for real store staff to ask 'can I help you' as they don't need help.
Not to mention you don't have to pay them by the hour, thats right imagine a one off expense for a lifetime of selling! |
