damianb1 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 What specifically is his job and areas of responsibility? Is it purely strategic commercial development or all areas of commercial activity i.e club shop, merchandise kiosks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetsheri Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I'm not sure what he's doing but for his undoubtedly high salary he must have the easiest job in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see his job being easy. We've been fvcckked commercially for years. My guess it's more the hardest job in the world. Let's face it; he'll be a miracle worker if he turns us around commercially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetsheri Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Think you 2 are missing my point. He was brought in to rejuvenate our commercial capability. Ive not seen anything to suggest he's actually done anything yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not a "Commercial Success" button he can press or anything is there - it just doesn't happen instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonbones Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 The higher the salary, the more vague the remit is generally. The ability to create reports to prove or disprove any fact is paramount. Pivot tables people, pivot tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive not seen anything to suggest he's actually done anything yet I was thinking this today - what has actually happened on this front in the last two years? I hope the 150 anniversary kit release timing is planned to maximise sales, but i'm tied of walking around sheffield looking at kids with new pig shirts.

vulva Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 No idea what he earns, or what he does. But if he works for DC and survives, he must be very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given time he will sort us out too, he's got a very big job sorting all the past 20 years of failures out and cannot be expected to do it in one season.

I work for a hard taskmaster, yet he has no clue what I do or how I achieve it. I could talk double dutch to him and he'd have to take it as gospel or hire someone to prove i'm talking giberish.

Catering bought back in house, are we introducing a cashless system now too? There is probably a lot of stuff we don't know about or see and may still be in planning process. Things will take time.

Agree, I don't think anyone will underperform in a roll at our club and survive for any length of time, especially one that's so high profile. I'm not dismissing the importance of the club store and merchandising in general but in terms of generating commercial revenue for our club there will be other more important revenue streams that required attention first.
