SOLICITATION POLICY REMINDER
It is imperative for the long term success of Memorial City Mall that our
shoppers have a wonderful shopping experience. MetroNational has
gone above and beyond to provide the most exquisite decor and
marketing program in the Houston market and we are positioned for a
success.
Recently we have seen an increase in customer complaints regarding
solicitation activities in the common area. If customers are accosted
time and time again as they walk through the mall, they WILL go
someplace else to shop.
Solicitation Guidelines:
You must be within arm's length of the cart/kiosk at all times.
If a customer is looking the other direction, is on their phone, or not
showing any interest you should not call out to them.
If a customer is looking in your direction, you may say "hello" and
attempt to engage them.
Remember "No" means no. Once the customer shows they are not
interested, you are not to continue soliciting them.
You should never touch a customer without their consent.
You should not be making large gestures or exaggerated facial
expressions.
Fines will double during the holiday season. After 3 offenses the
License Agreement may be terminated.
This will be the only warning you will receive.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to
contact me at 713.935.7101.
