What is a Sales Advisor?

What exactly is a sales advisor?

  • Let's say it's a clothes shop... is a sales advisor one of those people who harass you to buy things in their shop? :P Or are they like shop assistants, who work by the fitting rooms and help you find clothes or whatever? Thanks! xD

  • Answer:

    Sales advisors and sales assistants are pretty much the same thing. They help out in some or all tasks that are at the front of store. These include merchandising, floor walking (helping customers) answering calls and working behind the cash desk. People in the back are usually stock room assistants but they may come out and help if the shop floor is busy like at the changing rooms or something.

It is not fashionable to call a spade a spade these days so all jobs now seem to have titles making them sound more than they are. For Sales Ad visor think Shop Assistant or Sales person. In a clothes shop, yes, one of those people who harass you to buy things.
