Job Details
Your day-to-day responsibilities will cover the full consignment cycle: ① Prospecting & Lead Generation Identify and build a pipeline of suitable consignment locations — including shoe stores, sneaker boutiques, sports shops, fashion retailers, muslimah apparel stores, lifestyle and grooming shops, and independent mini-markets. You will actively scout locations on foot, via social media, and through your own network. ② Cold Outreach & Appointment Setting Initiate contact with store owners and managers through walk-ins, phone calls, WhatsApp, and email. Your goal is to secure a face-to-face meeting and generate genuine interest in carrying Xocks products. ③ Store Visits & Pitching Conduct in-person store visits to present Xocks, explain the consignment model, and demonstrate why stocking Xocks benefits the store owner. You will walk them through product margins, sell-through rates, and zero-upfront-risk advantages. ④ Negotiation & Deal Closing Negotiate consignment terms including product placement, shelf positioning, consignment volume, and payment settlement timelines. Close agreements and ensure paperwork (consignment form, terms & conditions) is properly signed and filed. ⑤ Onboarding & Setup Coordinate the first stock delivery, assist with product display and visual merchandising setup, and ensure the store is equipped with branding materials such as standees, price cards, and hangers. ⑥ Stock Management & Replenishment Monitor stock levels at each outlet, initiate restock requests, coordinate with the operations team for timely deliveries, and ensure slow-moving SKUs are swapped out for better-performing ones. ⑦ Performance Monitoring Track weekly and monthly sell-through rates per outlet. Flag underperforming locations early and work with store owners to improve product placement, promotion, or assortment. ⑧ Partner Relationship Management Build and maintain strong, ongoing relationships with store owners and staff. Serve as the primary point of contact for all consignment-related queries, issues, and requests. Ensure partner satisfaction and long-term retention. ⑨ Reporting & Pipeline Updates Maintain accurate records of your outlet pipeline, active accounts, stock movement, and revenue performance using our internal tracking system (XCMS). Submit weekly progress reports to management.
