Justin鈥檚 fulfilled all his allotted tasks in the shop and is keen to take a turn on the till. He tries to convince Jim of the virtues of up-selling and some gentle tweaks to their marketing strategy. Reluctantly Jim allows Justin to demonstrate his skills on the next client, who happens to be Rex. Jim warns Justin that Rex is a very particular sort of customer who tends to stick to a list, but Justin presses on. He successfully persuades Rex to buy a number of extra items, and spend more money than he planned. Jim鈥檚 impressed and can see the benefits of Justin鈥檚 techniques. If even a handful of customers spent a little bit more each week, the future of the shop would be in no doubt. He asks Justin to teach him the art of up-selling, a challenge which Justin cheerfully accepts.
