alizable to the end user. Significant differences between goods and services are due to their nature. If the main part of the cost of goods, depending on their quality, is laid in production, separated from consumption, then the quality and cost of trade services are formed in the relationship between the seller and the buyer in the service process, i.e. during the simultaneous production, exchange and consumption of services. This creates the prerequisites for active quality management of the services provided by a trade enterprise, including the regulation and fine-tuning of its material, technical and functional components. The possibilities of the impact of trade on the quality of goods in the sphere of commodity circulation are mostly limited to passive operations of storage, sorting, packaging, etc.

Improving the quality of trade services is associated with a number of material and technical factors, including the size of a retail enterprise in terms of retail space, the volume of retail turnover, the number of employees, the availability of equipment, machinery, etc. The scale effect is manifested in the emergence of prerequisites for organizing additional customer service, mechanization and automation of labor of workers employed both on the trading floor and in auxiliary operations.

The functional component of the quality of services makes it possible to judge the professionalism of the attendants, their relationship with customers, in particular, courtesy, attentiveness, courtesy, etc. The functional elements of a set of services are considered to be:

the nature of service contacts (it can be direct on the trading floor or indirect in the form of a "shop on the couch"; regular, episodic or random; with a highly or unpredictable result);
comfort of the service environment (illumination, presence of noise, odors, temperature conditions, etc.);
assessment of the subjective feelings of the buyer (prestige, safety, the need to wait, etc.).

A set of services may contain a different ratio of material, technical and functional elements of quality depending on the methods of sale (self-service, built on minimal communication with employees of the trading floor, when selling packaged food products and, conversely, the sale of a wide range of clothes, shoes, knitwear with the active participation sales assistants), product specialization of the retail enterprise (for example, in car dealerships, stores selling complex household appliances, a large share of material elements), type of enterprise (supermarket and any other large store involve television equipment for tracking the hall, computers for tracking movement goods connected to cash registers, etc.).

In terms of the quality and quantity of the services provided, retail trade enterprises differ markedly among themselves. However, a specific service, which includes a certain set of services, always creates a special atmosphere, attracting customers and thereby contributing to an increase in turnover and income. When choosing a store where the buyer is going to make a purchase, he takes into account not only the assortment, quality, prices of goods, but also the level of trading service. Modern stores for sales promotion provide customers with free applications or a gift for the purchased product, benefits and discounts when purchasing subsequent copies, sell more products for the same price, use multifunctional packaging, give out cooking recipes at the time of purchase, demonstrate clothes and shoes on catwalk fashion models, etc.

3 INTRODUCTION The problem of the quality of trade services is of great interest to sellers and buyers. After all, the material well-being of people is increasing daily and their cultural level is certainly growing. In these conditions, buyers have a desire to purchase the necessary goods at the right time for him, in a convenient place, in a full range. If all the requirements of the norm are met, the buyer will return again and again. It is also important that the enterprise observes the culture of trade service - a set of characteristics and conditions of the trade service process, determined by the professionalism and ethics of the service personnel. The relevance of the topic of assessing the quality of trade services lies in the fact that the level of quality of trade services is an important factor in the competitiveness of a trade enterprise in the conditions of market relations. At present, in the conditions of market competition, great importance is given to trade services, since the level of quality and culture of trade services depends on the effective trading activity and popularity of the enterprise, the main indicator of which is the size of profit. Improving the quality of trade services contributes to an increase in the number of regular customers, therefore, there is an increase in sales and profitability of the functioning of retail enterprises. In this regard, the issues of studying the assessment of the quality of trade services are currently relevant and have methodological and practical significance. The purpose of the final qualifying work is to assess the quality of trade services for a retail trade enterprise and find ways to improve it in order to increase work efficiency. Within the framework of this goal, the main tasks of the work are:

4 - study of the theoretical foundations for assessing the quality of trade services; - study of the theoretical foundations of the culture of commercial service; - to study the indicators of the quality of trade services; - to assess the quality of trade services at the enterprise; - develop measures to improve the quality of trade services. The object of the study is the rural consumer trade cooperative "Tomarovsky" store "Household goods". The subject of the study is the improvement of the assessment of the quality of trade services. During the study, the following methods were used: complex analysis; economic and statistical; comparisons and others. The methodological basis of the study was regulatory materials, scientific works of domestic and foreign scientists, educational and methodological literature, as well as materials of practical activities and annual financial statements of SPTK "Tomarovsky" for 2013-2015.

In the third chapter, measures are developed to improve the quality of trade services based on the results of the study. The work is presented on 59 sheets of typewritten text, the structure includes an introduction, three chapters, a conclusion, a list of references and applications.

5 Chapter 1. Theoretical foundations for assessing the quality of trade services in retail trade 1.1. The concept, essence, and content of trade services At present, in the conditions of fierce competition in the consumer goods market, the correct organization of trade services is of great importance in the successful operation of any trading company. Trade service - the activity of the seller in direct interaction with the buyer, aimed at meeting the needs of the buyer in the process of acquiring goods and / or services. Trade service process - a sequence of operations that ensure the implementation of trade services in a particular type of trade enterprises. As R.A. Kondrashev, “trade service is, on the one hand, customer service, the provision of services directly directed from person to person; and on the other hand, it is a service of a material nature, which is not aimed at a person, but at the movement of objects (goods) and indirectly affects the population as consumers in general and specifically for each individual person. Trade service for buyers entering the trading floor begins with a smile of the seller, with cleanliness and order, with a large assortment of goods in the store. The buyer is pleased when a beautiful exterior and interior is created for him, additional services are organized, etc. All this does not arise suddenly, but as a result of long and hard work. According to F. Kotler, trade service is a complex concept that includes such concepts as “quality of trade service”, “trade culture”, “service culture”, “level of service”, “these concepts are based on concern for the buyer who

6 should be able to acquire everything necessary in trade with the least expenditure of time and the greatest convenience. The main direction of the development of a trading company at the present time and in the future is a significant improvement in the quality of customer service, which is of great socio-economic importance. On the social side, from the side of consumer service, the activities of trade enterprises are seen as meeting the needs of the population in certain consumer goods in exchange for an equivalent amount of money, and as a special purposeful activity of trade workers to organize the process of buying and selling in the most convenient conditions for buyers, contributing to more full satisfaction of the specific needs of the buyer. For trade, in the first place are the problems of finding effective methods of trade service, improving the operating mode of trade enterprises, further improving the level of public service, reducing the time spent on purchasing goods, etc. According to E.V. can Romata, be "a high level achieved only as a result of trade close interaction of all links of trade, reducing consumption costs and providing a variety of services to the population" . The quality of trade services, as M. Porter notes, is completely dependent “on the achieved level of production of consumer goods in the country and the resources available to satisfy it and is expressed in the quantity and quality of goods, the conditions for their acquisition, the time spent by buyers and the quality of services, the culture of service » .

8 When describing the "culture of trade" it says: "The buyer must make all purchases with the least amount of time." It is obvious that the organization of trade customer service - "a component of the culture of service" - is adequate to the state of the material and technical base and the use of progressive forms of sale and service methods (components of buyers "the quality of "make shopping with service"). the least A possibility of spending time ”(constituting the concept of“ culture of trade ”) is inextricably linked both with the state of the material and technical base, the use of progressive forms, and with the organization of customer service. The main condition for a high culture of trade services is the constant availability of all goods necessary for the population. The growth of the material well-being of the people and their purchasing power makes it necessary to expand the assortment and improve the quality of goods. The division of the three above concepts concerns the activities of certain commercial enterprises and is typical for trade in general. So, M.I. Bakanov considers the quality of trade services from the standpoint of the speed of trade services for the population, the breadth and stability of the range of goods, the introduction of progressive forms of selling goods, the completeness of the purchase. M. Porter notes that "in modern conditions, the quality of trade services is the most important characteristic of trade" . At the level of an economic entity, it is advisable to maintain certain qualities of trade services. The quality of trade services for the population is a broad and capacious concept. It includes the degree of satisfaction of consumer demand for individual goods, assortment, compliance with the completeness of the assortment purchase, the culture of the minimum, the breadth of trade, the development

9 progressive forms of trade customer service, provision of additional services, as well as the minimum time for service, etc. Many scientists have been and are studying the quality of trade services, so for a complete picture of the quality of trade services, you should familiarize yourself with their numerous works in this area. Thus, from all of the above, it follows that the quality of trade services is the most important characteristic of a trade enterprise, depending on the level of quality provided, the level of the trade organization itself will depend. Therefore, entrepreneurs who develop their enterprise must take full responsibility for studying and creating in their own enterprise a high quality trade service that will satisfy consumers in due measure. 1.2. The role of the quality of sales service The quality of sales service is an important indicator of the success of the enterprise and plays a huge role in its development. After all, the main impression of customers about the company is formed precisely on the basis of the quality of service provided to them. Recently, the attitude of entrepreneurs towards the problem of improving the quality of trade services has also changed, which more and more consider this indicator as an important tool for increasing the competitiveness of retail trade enterprises in the consumer market. The process of customer service has a huge impact on the mood and satisfaction of customers, needs are satisfied in the trade. since 90% of all

10 Every entrepreneur tries to keep up with the times and not lag behind others, but to get ahead of them so that his enterprise is popular and in demand. Ensuring a high level of trade customer service in stores is one of the most effective forms of participation of a trade enterprise in competition in the consumer market, the formation of its competitive advantage. Increasing the level of trade service involves strict discipline, clarity and efficiency in work, knowledge of the goods store employees, their features, the ability to present information, give advice (consultation) to the buyer, perfect command of various operations related to the sale of goods, beautiful external and internal design of the store, neat appearance of the seller, the ability to behave, be polite, friendly, tactful. A necessary condition for raising the level of trade services is also the observance of trade rules; establishment of constant control over the safety of inventory items, organization of labor and labor discipline. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the level of culture of the sales staff, their professional knowledge, courtesy and courtesy towards customers, the ability to clearly and tactfully perform the assigned functions, since all this plays a key role in shaping the assessment of the quality of trade services. Consequently, the higher the quality of the trade service provided by the enterprise, the more attractive it is for buyers and is the leader among competitors. In recent years, interest in this problem has largely increased both on the part of state regulatory authorities of the industry, and on the part of many academic economists whose scientific interests lie in the field of trade management.

14 opinion about him, so he should be met by neat employees, attentive and friendly attitude. 2) Determination of buyers' demand - the seller is obliged, without waiting for the buyer's question, to politely ask what goods he is interested in and what he would like to purchase. Having clarified the intentions, the seller must offer the buyer the appropriate goods or, in the absence of the right one, recommend a substitute product. In self-service stores, buyers themselves have the right to choose goods, but the seller can provide advice. 3) Consultation and display of goods - when advising the buyer, the seller must know information about the product, its properties, be able to demonstrate the product in action (for example, technically complex goods - televisions and other equipment), know the norms for the consumption of goods (for example, the consumption of fabric for sewing a product ), current trends and fashion trends, storage and operation conditions for goods, etc. In some cases, stores attract highly qualified specialists, nutritionists, fashion designers and others for consultation. Consultations should be exhaustive, and advice should be objective. There should be no imposition of goods and suggestion. 4) Technical operations for the release of goods - selection of the desired product, measurement, weighing, cutting, etc. The execution of such operations depends on the range of goods. So, when selling food products, the main procedure is weighing. It is typical for the sale of a number of such goods (bulk, liquid, etc.). When selling fabric, ribbons, electric cord, the most time-consuming part is measuring. When selling by the self-service method, the selected goods are placed in inventory baskets and sent with them to the settlement node, where they pay for purchases. This is also where the packing and delivery of the purchase takes place.

19 clarity of definition of workers, functions performed by various categories of mechanization and automation of working conditions, organization of internal control over the activities of workers of mass professions. Evaluation is carried out by customer surveys, the frequency of which is determined by the type of store and the purpose of the survey. The results of customer surveys are used along with other methods of assessing the quality of service. Thus, the results will be used to further stimulate sales volumes in the store, providing a high level of trade service to customers, as well as to search for reserves aimed at further developing the trade enterprise and increasing competitiveness.

The store is located near a public transport stop and has a parking area adjacent to the store. The main stream of buyers are people with different income levels. The location of the store is chosen well, which ensures greater profits. But at the same time it leads to competition with other stores. The store's main competitors are the Dom i Sad store and the BelTom store.

The decrease in revenue in the reporting year 2015 is due to the fact that there was a decrease in cost by 7.8%. The growth rate of labor productivity in the reporting year 2015 amounted to

30 24.6%. The number of employees is decreasing every year, but labor productivity is growing due to staff development. The average annual cost of fixed assets in 2015 increased by 408.5 thousand rubles. RUB. The increase in the average annual value of receivables is 27.8%, which is significantly lower than the ratio of 2014/2013, where the growth rate is 94.4%. The average annual value of accounts payable in 2015 decreased by 10.4%. The cost of production in 2015 amounted to 191121 thousand rubles. rub., 7.8% lower than in 2014/2013. Net profit increased by 2464 thousand rubles. rubles, the growth rate in 2015 was 176.6%, which is more than 2 times the ratio of 2014/2013. In 2015, the return on assets decreased by 7.2%. The growth rate of capital intensity in the reporting year amounted to 8.3%. Return on sales has a positive growth trend, the growth rate was 200%, which indicates an effective pricing policy of the organization and successful activities in general. As a result of the analysis of the main indicators of the financial and economic activities of SPTK Tomarovsky, it can be said that the profit from the sale of products, labor productivity and profitability of sales in the reporting year 2015 were characterized by positive dynamics, the indicated positive trends led to the receipt and growth of the company's net profit. In table 2.4, we consider the assessment of the financial stability of the enterprise SPTK "Tomarovsky". Thus, the calculation of the coefficient of financial independence shows that the coefficient is within the normal range, equal to 0.4 in the reporting year 2015, which indicates that the enterprise has more own funds than borrowed funds and is financially stable, the activity of the enterprise is stable. The financial stability ratio in 2015 is above the norm and is 0.7, indicating that the company is financially stable and has the ability to pay its obligations independently in the long term. Coefficient

31 financing in 2015 exceeds the norm, equal to 0.8, indicates the independence of the enterprise from external sources, the assets of the enterprise are formed at the expense of equity capital. The coefficient of financial dependence throughout the entire period from 2013-2015 has a downward trend, which means that every year the enterprise will be able to finance itself more from its own sources of funds. In 2015, the flexibility ratio, equal to 0.03, is below the recommended value, therefore, it occupies an unstable position of financial stability and forms working capital with the help of borrowed funds. The financial leverage ratio during the analyzed period of 2013-2015 is within the normal range, which indicates the company's ability to fulfill its financial obligations in full on time.

32 Thus, the analysis of the financial stability of the enterprise allows us to draw the following conclusions. In the reporting year of 2015, there was an improvement in the financial stability of the enterprise in terms of some indicators, due to an increase in the level of profit. Most of the company's funds are concentrated in current assets, which increases its mobility. The company has more own funds than loans. Table 2.5 evaluates the business activity of the enterprise.

The analysis of the business activity of SPTK Tomarovsky shows that in 2015 the total capital turnover ratio was 2.5 turnovers, 0.2 turnovers less than the previous year, which indicates a decrease in the intensity of the turnover ratio of the use of funds in the reporting year 2015 of the enterprise. decreased slightly compared to the previous year by 0.1 and amounted to 7.1, the decrease indicates an insufficiently efficient use of current assets. The rate of return of intangible assets, in turnover, increased in 2015, the absolute deviation is 198.2, which indicates the effective use of intangible assets. There was a decrease in the return on equity ratio in 2015 by 1, which means that for every ruble of invested own funds, there are 5.2 rubles. sales revenue.

The profitability of an enterprise comprehensively reflects the degree of efficiency in the use of material, labor and monetary and other resources.

34 The profitability ratio is calculated as the ratio of profit to the assets or flows that form it. A general indicator of the economic efficiency of production is the indicator of profitability. Profitability indicators are important characteristics of enterprises, therefore it is very important for the factorial environment of profit formation to consider the dynamics of profitability indicators of an organization (Table 2.6). The overall profitability determines the economic efficiency of the enterprise as a whole. The overall profitability indicator increased as compared to 2014. The increase was 15.2% in 2015 and this indicates the efficient operation of the enterprise and the increase in its profitability. The growth rate of product profitability decreased by 5.5%, which indicates the inefficient use of funds in the production process. The profitability of sales indicates what share of the profit is contained in each earned ruble. It is worth noting the growth rate of 2015 to 2014 - 200%. This means that revenue increases faster than costs. In general, 2015 is characterized by growth in all indicators compared to the previous year, which was the least profitable for the organization (Table 2.6). Despite the fact that the absolute deviation takes on average a small value, it still indicates a well-organized management policy of the enterprise on the part of the management and has a positive trend in the future. The calculated profitability values show a good result, and the funds invested in the turnover are justified, therefore, it can be noted that the enterprise's activity is effective.

Liquidity characterizes not only the current state of settlements, but also the prospect. According to this table, to determine the liquidity of the balance sheet, one should compare the results for each group of indicators for assets and liabilities: absolutely liquid assets (A1); marketable assets (A2); slow-moving assets (A3); hard-to-sell assets (A4); the most urgent obligations (P1); short-term liabilities (P2); long-term liabilities (P3); permanent (sustainable) liabilities (P4). In order for the balance to be recognized as absolutely liquid, the following ratios must be fulfilled between these indicators: A1 ≥ P1;

36 A2 ≥ P2; A3 ≥ P3; A4 ≤ P4. Fulfillment of the first three conditions leads automatically to the fulfillment of the condition: A4 ≤ П4. Consider the liquidity of the enterprise rural consumer trade cooperative "Tomarovsky" in table 2.7. Table 2.7 Liquidity analysis of the balance sheet of SPTK Tomarovsky for 2013-2015 Absolute deviation, +/- Years Indicators Absolutely liquid assets (A1) Fast-moving assets (A2) Slow-selling assets (A3) Hard-selling assets (A4) Most urgent liabilities ( P1) Short-term liabilities (P2) Long-term liabilities (P3) Permanent (sustainable) liabilities (P4) Growth rate, % 2013 2014 from 2014 2015 2013 Assets (thousand rubles) 2015 from 2014 2014 to 2013 2015 to 2014 1404 1291 782 - 113 - 509 91.9 60.6 2639 6020 5047 3381 - 973 228.1 83.8 36290 27749 29198 - 8541 1449 76.5 105.2 62123 65868 62877 3745 39486 33818 31895 - 5668 - 1923 85.6 94.3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 21048 21892 15683 844 - 6209 104 71.6 41922 45218 50326 3296 5108 107.9 table 2.8.

The enterprise does not have enough funds to cover the most urgent obligations and the most liquid assets for 2013-2015. The inequality A2 > P2 is satisfied, therefore, quickly realizable assets exceed short-term liabilities and the organization can be solvent in the future, taking into account timely settlements with creditors, receiving funds from the sale of products on credit for 2013–2015. The inequality A3 > P3 is feasible, in the future, with the timely receipt of cash from sales and payments, the organization can be solvent for a period equal to the average duration of one turnover of working capital after the balance sheet date for 2013-2014. Non-fulfillment of the first inequality indicates that the liquidity of the balance to a greater or lesser extent differs from the absolute one. However, it should be noted that the ongoing analysis of the liquidity of the balance sheet is approximate, solvency with more detailed financial assistance is the coefficient of analysis of current liquidity. The current coefficient in 2013 was 1.02, in 2014 - 1.03, and in 2015 - 1.1. Throughout the analyzed period from 2013 to 2015, the coefficient tends to increase and is within the recommended norm, more or equal to from 1 to 2, so

38 the enterprise has enough own funds, which can be used to pay off short-term obligations during the year. Thus, the analysis of the financial condition of the enterprise for the period 2013-2015. showed that this company has an insufficiently stable financial condition and an illiquid balance sheet. 2.3. Evaluation of the quality of trade services of SPTK "Tomarovsky" "Household goods" In the store of SPTK "Tomarovsky" "Household goods" the following method of selling goods is used - service through the counter. The process of selling in this case includes: - meeting the buyer and identifying his intention; - offer and display of goods; - Assistance in the selection of goods and advice; - offering related and new products; - Settlement transactions and issuance of purchases. Meeting the buyer and identifying his intention. This operation is the initial stage of the process of selling goods. Its task is to identify the intentions of buyers in relation to quality, price and other features of the product. Offering and displaying products is an essential part of the customer service process. The correct organization of the display of goods is possible only on the basis of a well-thought-out scheme for placing goods, using modern methods of displaying them. When showing, the seller clarifies the needs of buyers, draws attention to the features of individual products, reveals the aesthetic properties and quality of products. Help in choosing and advice. Consulting enhances the culture of trading. Consultation during the display and selection of goods includes:

41 - development of new products of improved quality; - creation of competitive advantages of the organization; - meeting the needs of a wide range of consumers. The novelty of the assortment is characterized by the coefficient of novelty, which is defined as the ratio of the number of new products in the general list of presented (H) to the actual breadth of the assortment (Wd). Thus, the novelty coefficient is calculated according to the following formula: Кн = (Н: Шд), (2.1) where Кн – novelty coefficient; H - the number of new models of electric drills that went on sale for a certain period of time; Shd - the actual breadth of the range. This indicator is necessarily calculated for a certain period of time and shows the number of new products that went on sale to the department for the selected period of time. By interviewing the seller of the researched store "Household Goods", it was found that over the past 2 weeks, 12 new products have appeared. Let's calculate the novelty coefficient (Appendix 14): Kn = (12:90) = 0.13 The novelty coefficient for the store was 0.13. This result indicates a gradual renewal of the range. The Household Goods store pays great attention to updating its own assortment, offering new products in a moderate amount, minimizing the risk of incurring losses due to low demand for the presented new products. A survey method was used to determine the stability coefficient. The seller of the store "Household Goods" was interviewed. As a result, it was revealed that 58 different products of the Household Goods store are in constant demand.

42 The stability coefficient is calculated according to the following formula: Ku = (U: Shd), (2.2) where Ku is the stability coefficient; Y (sustainability indicator) - the number of goods that are in steady demand among consumers; Shd - the actual breadth of the range. The actual breadth of 90 products, according to the assortment list (Appendix 5). Now let's calculate this indicator for the company under study: Ku = (58:90)=0.64 The resulting value indicates that 64% of all presented goods are in steady demand among buyers. In addition to the main products that are in steady demand from consumers, the Household Goods store includes new products in the assortment structure, forming a rational assortment, which allows not only to make a profit, but also to fully satisfy the needs of consumers of various social groups. The analysis of the quality of trade services was carried out in the store SPTK "Tomarovsky" "Household Goods" with the help of the buyers themselves, a questionnaire was conducted to identify not only the overall impression of the service, but also an assessment of its components. Of particular interest are surveys of people who have just visited the store, since in this case we get fairly accurate answers to a number of questions. This follows from the fact that at the moment of visiting and leaving the store, the buyer forms a certain attitude towards how he was served. It is possible not only to determine the quality of service, but also to more accurately establish the reasons for the motivated reaction of the buyer to the level and quality of service. The store conducted a survey of customers in order to assess the quality of trade service. 10 people were interviewed. The questionnaire is presented in Appendix 1.

44 Chapter 3. Ways to improve the quality of trade services SPTK "Tomarovsky" "Household goods" 3.1. Measures to improve the qualifications and incentives of personnel At present, interest in the personnel at the enterprise has grown, as a rule, it lies in the qualifications and professionalism of the employee, in his training and desire to develop for work, therefore, in the greater flexibility of the enterprise, for its adaptation to changing external conditions. The personal needs and desires of the employee are of less interest to the management of the enterprise and are not always taken into account. Human needs are the only driving force in the organization, which not only leads to actions, but also triggers the thinking processes of the employee. The manager must create conditions and organizational mechanisms so that the performance of work leads to the satisfaction and development of the needs of the employee. In SPTK "Tomarovsky" "Household Goods" it is recommended to carry out the following measures to improve the skills of staff and to stimulate labor. Trade service should be at a higher level, because. it is the quality of service and the qualifications of sellers that can affect the decision to purchase, and if it is worse than that of competing stores, then the Household Goods store may lose actual customers. In this regard, it is proposed to introduce a draft regulation on allowances for consultants. high professional skills of sellers -

45 Salary bonuses for high professional skills are established and paid to sales assistants who have worked in this profession for at least one year and have the maximum level of the tariff rate. Bonuses are calculated for hours actually worked as a percentage of the base salary. There are three types of allowances in the amount of 5%, 10%, 15%. For the first type of allowances in the amount of 5%, the following indicators serve: - fulfillment of established tasks with output not lower than the average level with high-quality performance of work; - At least 1 year of experience in this profession, the ability to make independent decisions; - good work without remarks. For the second type of allowances in the amount of 10%, the following indicators serve: - fulfillment of established tasks with output above the average level with high-quality performance of work; - At least 3 years of work experience, which allows to fulfill all instructions accurately and in a timely manner; - readiness for unexpected solutions and new attitudes, rapid development of new issues and methods, active cooperation with other employees and mentoring in the workforce; - the constant performance of several tariff-qualifying operations by the reference book (works) foreseen for a given profession. For the third stage of the allowances in the amount of 15%, the following indicators serve: - high-quality customer service and activity in improving the organization of the labor process in the team, the fulfillment of established tasks with the highest output with a high quality of work;

46 - work experience of at least 5 years, possession of diverse experience, in-depth knowledge of special issues not only in their work, but also in related areas, the ability to quickly and independently make informed decisions in all necessary cases, create a clear order in work; - Possession of a high sense of responsibility, active participation in the search and implementation of new progressive solutions for the organization of labor and production, improvement of technological processes; - be an example of emotional restraint and correctness, mentoring, creating complete interchangeability in the team. Compliance with all of the above requirements must be controlled by the store manager, possibly using the "mystery shopper" operation. The cost of implementing this measure will be: the cost of paying bonuses for high professional skills, carried out within the payroll limit. Also, each employee is required to undergo training under the "Effective Sales Techniques" program, the cost of which is 1,500 rubles for each employee. Thus, if we take into account that now 6 sellers work in the store, therefore, 9,000 rubles will be required to train 6 employees. Bonus expenses, taking into account the number of sellers, are expected to amount to 3,000 rubles per month. In total, the cost of the event will amount to 12,000 rubles (Table 3.1). Table 3.1 Costs for the implementation of the event on bonuses for the high professional skills of sales assistants - consultants Name of costs Training in effective sales techniques Bonus costs Total Amount rub. 9000 3000 12000

47 For violation of labor discipline or in connection with the deterioration of performance, as well as when transferring to another job, the bonus for high professional skills is canceled. With such stimulation by increasing the volume of employees, sales, the quality of customer service is directly improved, which leads to an increase in the number of satisfied customers who will come to this store for shopping next time. This factor is important in the formation of the store's own image. As social methods of stimulating employees, we can offer the following events: congratulations to staff on holidays and birthday gifts, entry on the Board of Honor, issuance of letters of thanks and letters of honor from the head. Social protection of personnel - care for the health and recreation of people, housing conditions and rational nutrition; incentive programs for the best employees (prizes, diplomas, gifts, vouchers); development of recommendations to the management of the company on improving the working and living conditions of the staff, improving the psychological climate of the team. In order to improve the skills of the personnel, it is recommended to introduce a system of training the personnel of the SPTK Tomarovsky. It is necessary to conduct staff training, provide information relevant to the present, provide knowledge in the field of buyer psychology and the correct conduct of a conversation. Carry out seminars to analyze problems arising in the course of work. Periodic certification of personnel - the development of methods for an objective qualitative and quantitative assessment of the performance of each specialist, determining the level of his qualifications. Personnel reshuffle - the movement of employees to other positions, the development of the structure should be based on the results of certification (increase, decrease, transfer, dismissal).

49 buyers. To meet consumer demand for rare goods in the store, you can introduce a service such as taking pre-orders for goods that are not available or temporarily out of stock, i.e. the buyer can place an order by phone or directly in the store for the goods he needs at the right time for him. This is very convenient for buyers, because. goods are purchased in the right assortment and quantity. This service is designed to bring the customer as close as possible to the product and the store, and also to ensure that customer demand is always satisfied. In order to create more comfortable conditions for customers in the future, it is planned to use a progressive method of sale in the Household Goods store, i.e. self-service, because the area of the trading floor allows the introduction of a self-service method, all the necessary equipment is available in the store. This method has a large number of advantages, ranging from reducing the time spent on buying, ending with the provision of a wide range, as a result of an increase in turnover. Among the ways to improve the quality of trade services, one can single out work with suppliers, because the wider and more diverse the range of goods and the more attractive its price, the more customers will visit the store. To do this, the company needs to conduct an analysis of suppliers, during which the disadvantages and advantages of each will be identified. It is also necessary to monitor the demand of buyers for various products of various brands as often as possible. If the store sells goods from a narrow circle of suppliers, then some buyers will remain dissatisfied with purchases, and therefore with trade services. In order to avoid such situations, the Household Goods store needs to expand its supplier base, conclude supply contracts with manufacturers of the same product group, which will expand the range and satisfy the needs of customers.

50 It is necessary to pay attention to the offered price of suppliers, often the goods pass through quite increases its cost. many intermediaries, which is natural Consider the dynamics of growth in prices for goods, depending on the participation of intermediaries in Table 3.2. Table 3.2 Dynamics of growth in prices for goods in the store "Household Goods" Name of goods Lamp Air purifier Heating boiler Chainsaw Factory price (per unit) 930 rubles. 3100 rub. Intermediary price Selling price 1460 rub. 4100 rub. Trade markup, in % 20 15 1752 rub. 4715 rub. Selling price without intermediaries 1116 rubles. 3565 rub. 14700 rub. 17800 rub. 15 20470 rub. 15435 rub. 6200 rub. 8400 rub. 15 9330 rub. 7130 rub. From the data in the table it can be seen that the price without the participation of intermediaries is much lower, therefore, demand will begin to grow, resulting in a large volume of sales, which means that the profit of the organization will grow and customer demand will be more satisfied, the efficiency of trade services will increase. Part of the profits received from this event can be used to improve the quality of trade services. On the effectiveness of additional services. service renders In the Household Goods store, additional services are provided, but in order to improve trade services, further expansion of additional services is required to attract potential customers and increase the loyalty of current ones. The service of additional services can include free packaging of goods in branded packages of the store, the issuance of souvenirs for a purchase of a certain amount of money, provide discounts on weekly products, issue coupons with a discount on next purchases.

52 On the part of the enterprise, the possibility of cashless payments also removes a number of problems and provides certain advantages. First of all, this is a reduction in the time for settlements with customers, an expansion of the client base, the active part of the population has already switched to the system of non-cash payments, becoming holders of bank cards. In addition, it optimizes the working time of the company's employees, reduces unnecessary costs for working with cash (storage, recounting), eliminates the problem of cash collection, eliminates cases of fraud with counterfeit banknotes. In addition, it has been proven that when paying with a bank card, the client is inclined to spend more, which cannot but have a positive effect on increasing the turnover of funds in the enterprise. Of the intangible advantages, the following can be noted: the use of modern calculation technologies has a positive effect on the image of the enterprise. And this is important in the face of growing competition. To do this, you need to conclude an agreement with the bank, install the appropriate equipment (POS-terminal). All these additional services will have an impact on improving the quality of commercial equipment for daily customer service. With the help of a special client, electronic reports are generated and sent to the processing center, and the bank refunds funds to the current account of the enterprise in the amount of the amount of operations performed on the terminal. At the same time, Visa and MasterCard cards are accepted for payment. The benefit of the bank lies in the fact that it retains a certain commission for the provision of a POS terminal and its services. Even though the entrepreneur is forced to pay a certain percentage to the bank, installing POS terminals is an extremely profitable customer service option for any type of business. Sales volume can increase by 30% with the purchase of this product

53 trade automation. In addition, the segment of solvent clients with a high level of income, who prefer to pay not in cash, but with the help of cards, will increase. Replacing cash with a non-cash payment allows you to minimize losses, because the risk of accepting counterfeit banknotes or making mistakes when counting money by a cashier is sharply reduced. Since the equipment is provided by the bank, the bank's commission is included in the costs (the maintenance of the current account and the services of the processing center are included) - from 0.1 to 0.7% depending on the turnover, the payment system itself, for example, Visa - 2%. There are two types of commissions that sellers of goods and services are required to pay (according to the acquiring agreement, enterprises do not have the right to mark up goods for non-cash payments). If the buyer pays with the card of the bank that installed the POS-terminal, the fee is 0.5-1.5%. If he pays with a card issued by another credit institution, the seller transfers 1.5-3.5% to the bank, while 1.2% goes to the international payment system as a commission. Thus, the introduction of these measures will increase the efficiency of the activity of SPTK Tomarovsky Household Goods, in the first year, these measures should entail not only an increase in the loyalty of regular customers, a positive trend in key economic indicators, and a stable competitive position in the market.

Each trade enterprise strives to take a leading position among competitors and be the first for its customers, satisfying their demand and needs. To do this, you need to make a huge amount of effort, because at present the trade market is very wide, fierce competition prevails and everyone tries to surprise with something, and the consumer, in his observation of improvement, begins to increase his requirements for the work of the enterprise.

In the reporting year of 2015, there was an improvement in the financial stability of the enterprise in terms of some indicators, due to an increase in the level of profit. Most of the company's funds are concentrated in current assets, which increases its mobility. So

Thus, the analysis of the financial stability of the enterprise allows us to conclude that the enterprise has more own funds than borrowed ones. The analysis of the business activity of SPTK Tomarovsky revealed that in 2015 the total capital turnover ratio was 2.5 turnovers, 0.2 turnovers less than the previous year, which indicates a decrease in the intensity of the turnover ratio of the use of funds in the reporting resources of 2015 of the enterprise. year decreased slightly compared to the previous year by 0.1 and amounted to 7.1, the decrease indicates an insufficiently efficient use of current assets.

The calculated profitability values show a good result, which means that the funds invested in the turnover are justified, therefore, it can be noted that the enterprise's activity is effective. After analyzing the quality of trade services for the store "Household Goods", which is part of the SPTC "Tomarovsky", we can say with confidence that the store provides a satisfactory level of quality to trade services and, thanks to the proposed ones, will be able to bring the quality of trade services to a new level and increase its advantage in the market of household goods. goods. The analysis revealed such shortcomings as insufficiently high level of staff training. To eliminate this shortcoming, recommendations were developed to improve the skills of personnel. It is proposed to start training staff members under the “Effective Sales Techniques” program, thanks to which the staff will expand their knowledge and acquire the skills to use this technique, which will further increase sales efficiency and provide high knowledge of the quality of trade services. It is also recommended to stimulate employees morally and

56 reward. Even such seemingly insignificant introductions as birthday gifts, certificates of honor will give the staff an impetus to improve the quality of work, which entails a positive impact on the quality of the trading service. It is proposed to introduce technical measures that will affect the growth of the quality of trade services. In the Household Goods store, it is recommended to conduct research in the field of consumer demand as often as possible in order to meet the needs of customers and meet the expected level of quality of shopping service. This plays an important role for the company, thus, the store will prove itself as a company that cares about its customers and tries to fulfill all the requirements that customers request. And so it is recommended to purchase left-luggage offices for the convenience of customers, because it is much more convenient to be in the store “easy” than with heavy bags in your hands, this will certainly increase the level of trade service. An integral part of improving the quality of service is the range of goods and set prices, in order for the buyer to be satisfied with the store, it is necessary to set prices for goods lower. Than competitors, but not at the expense of quality. For this, a recommendation has been developed for the analysis of suppliers who use as few intermediaries as possible in their work, because each intermediary increases the price, which adversely affects the price in the store. If the store works with manufacturers of goods, then, accordingly, the price of the goods will be several times lower and it will be a plus for the enterprise that the allowance can be increased, resulting in a positive economic effect, the funds from which can be directed to the development and improvement of quality trade service. The store needs to install new technologies in matters of calculation, for this you need to install a terminal that will reduce the time

57 spent on the purchase, which will have a positive impact on the quality of the shopping service. Summarizing all of the above, we can conclude that if the Household Goods store implements the proposed measures, the level of service quality will begin to grow, the company will take a strong position and provide a high level of trade service quality that will attract new customers.

According to the definition given in the State Standard of the Russian Federation (GOST R 51303-2013 "Trade. Terms and definitions"), trade service- this is the activity of the seller in direct interaction with the buyer, aimed at meeting the needs of the buyer in the process of acquiring goods and (or) services.

Trade service quality is a set of characteristics of the process and conditions of trade customer service.

Trade Service Speed is the average time spent serving one customer.

Trade service culture is a set of characteristics and conditions of the trading service process, determined by the professionalism and ethics of the service personnel.

Characteristics of the trade service culture - courtesy, sensitivity, competence, availability of staff for customers, skill level of employees, comfort, aesthetics of service provision, etc.

Managing the process of customer service in the store is one of the leading functions in the trade management complex.

Providing a high level of sales service is the main task of the retail trade enterprise, as well as the main means of stimulating sales, which is realized by satisfying all the most important requirements of customers. The essence of the requirements is to ensure that with the least expenditure of time and the greatest convenience to purchase the necessary goods in the store.

The basic level of customer service includes:

? the possibility of parking;
? maintaining cleanliness;
? comfortable internal environment;
? automatic doors;
? availability of shopping carts;
? operational service at the box office;
? friendly, always ready to help store staff;
? a system for notifying visitors about the offered goods and ongoing promotions;
? unobtrusive background music;
? a wide range of related products;
? promotion of purchases with promotions, prices, coupons, etc.;
? sales services and special services.

Most often, buyers, evaluating the level of service in stores, focus their attention on:

1) on the physical characteristics (the appearance of the store, the presentation of goods, the appearance of the seller, the politeness of the store employees, respectful attitude towards customers, showing interest in customers);
2) understanding the needs of customers (attention to each customer, special relationship with regular customers, convenience, fast processing of transactions, convenient opening hours, convenient location, quick resolution of customer problems);
3) security (a sense of security in the parking lot, confidentiality of negotiations and transactions, business skills of sellers);
4) the reputation of the company (trust in the sellers of the store, the provision of guarantees for purchased goods, the possibility of returning goods, the accuracy of calculations);
5) the availability of information for the buyer (about the services provided, prices, sales, etc.).

Providing a high level of trade service

buyers in stores is one of the most effective forms of participation of a trading enterprise in competition in the consumer market, i.e. is a condition for ensuring the proper level of the image of a trading enterprise, attracting loyal customers.

Customer service process management is considered as a complex set of decisions developed by managers, taking into account the competitiveness of a trading enterprise and the goods they sell, the state of the material and technical base, the stage of the product's life cycle, and the available potential of labor, material and financial resources.

Customer service process management has a direct impact on the economic performance of a trading enterprise - the volume of trade, the amount of gross income and profit, the level of profitability.

Although the concept of "store customer service level" is generalized, it is defined by a number of specific elements that play different roles in providing this level.

According to Russian buyers and experts of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation, revealed in the process of conducting a special study, the following elements are among the most important.

The main elements that determine the level of customer service in the store.

1. The presence in the store of a wide, deep and sustainable range of goods that meets the demand of the customer contingents served.
2. The use of progressive forms of sale and customer service methods in the store, providing the greatest convenience and minimizing the time spent on shopping.
3. Providing customers with additional trading services related to the specifics of the goods being sold.
4. Widespread use of in-store advertising and information.
5. High professional qualification of the personnel directly carrying out the process of customer service in the sales area.
6. Full compliance with the established rules for the sale of goods and the procedure for trading in the store.

The main intention of buyers associated with visiting a store is to satisfy the demand for goods of specific groups, subgroups, types and varieties, determined by the scope of the corresponding store specialization.

Ensuring a wide selection of products that take into account the specific needs of the customer contingents served is an important condition for meeting their demand and is considered by them as the main condition for a high level of service.

For regular customers of this store, the stability of the assortment also plays an important role, guaranteeing a constant opportunity to make a purchase. The presence of a wide and sustainable range of goods in the store should be considered a priority element in providing a high level of customer service.

If the necessary goods are available for sale, the essence of the main requirements of buyers for the level of trade service is to make their purchase with the greatest convenience and minimum time. When organizing the service process, you should be aware of the most important psychological feature of the buyer's behavior - he can spend quite a long time examining and choosing goods (and he should not be limited in this), but he is annoyed by even small losses of time in queues waiting for payments for the purchase. The widespread use of progressive forms of selling goods in the store allows minimizing the time spent by customers on making purchases.

The formation of a system of additional services that accompany the process of purchasing goods, as well as after-sales customer service, ensures the satisfaction of their demand for services in combination with the demand for goods. This is an important condition for the formation of a high level of trading service and the corresponding preferences of buyers.

Almost no purchase of goods in the store is carried out without direct contact between the buyer and the staff. Communication between the buyer and the store staff occurs in the process of choosing goods, paying for them, packing the purchase, etc. The high professionalism of the staff, its attentive and polite treatment of customers, neat appearance are the conditions for the realization of the intentions of customers and the creation of a favorable psychological climate in the process of trading services.

Legislatively provided by the state, the protection of the rights of buyers is reflected in the regulatory requirements, the rules for the sale of goods approved by state bodies and the procedure for carrying out trading activities. Full compliance with the requirements of these regulatory documents forms a guaranteed necessary level of customer service in the store, i.e. regarded as the minimum standard for this service.

The level of customer service in a supermarket type store provides for parking, cleanliness of the retail and non-trade premises of the store, as well as the territory adjacent to it, automatic doors, toilet rooms, shopping trolleys for children, the disabled, adults, prompt service when paying for purchases, friendly , staff ready to provide a service, a system for alerting visitors about the offered goods and ongoing promotions, unobtrusive background music, a wide range of related products, rational organization of the technological layout of the trading floor, display of goods on commercial equipment, promotion of purchases, sales services, special services.

Price and assortment factors that form the level of customer service. Customers primarily associate the level of service in a trading enterprise with the prices of goods. And the price level primarily determines whether the goods will be bought by the buyer or not, so you should find the optimal price for the store.

World practice shows that a product costs as much as the buyer agrees to pay for it. Therefore, it is necessary to clearly define the target group of potential buyers of the store. A store targeting middle-income shoppers should feature a wide range of merchandise and occasional merchandise and an average markup. The main contingent of buyers with an income below the average determines a small markup on the goods in the presence of the necessary product range that satisfies the daily demand of buyers.
