Philippine-specific tips for this role
- ▸ A common mistake is saying 'I just asked the tindera what sells' without showing a systematic approach. Instead, demonstrate how you actively gathered and analyzed data, even from a simple survey.
- ▸ Some candidates might say 'Sila na ang nag-set, sinunod ko lang' without showing initiative. Instead, demonstrate how you actively managed the inputs, resolved conflicts, and kept everyone updated.
- ▸ Avoid jumping to 'dagdagan lang ng promo' without analyzing the root cause. Instead, show a structured approach: compare pricing, pack sizes, shopper behavior, and then test an intervention.
- ▸ Huwag lang sabihing 'gusto ko kasi marketing.' Instead, demonstrate that you know sari-sari stores are not just small versions of supermarkets; they have unique shopper behaviors like 'tingi' culture and suki relationships.
