      1. The SCAB will be set up to have the objectives listed in the notes with space for written notes. “Other” section will also be included for anything else discussed)
    2. Action Items
      1. Should be SMART action items (Who, what, when)
      2. Should be typed up and sent to Key Retail
  12. The finalized SCAB will be sent back to the Key Retail team to input Action Items into Intervals. Notes will be scanned into SCAB folder
    1. All Action Items should have an owner and a deadline.

Additional Notes:

  1. In the cases where a meeting is set up last minute, we should still follow the procedure above but with a SCAB Lite. This means only basic reports will be included (Gross Sales #s) and high level notes from the KR team
  2. The template for Licensors and Prospective Customers should be different
    1. New Customers
      1. Customer Profile with # of Stores; Sales $s; background, etc
    2. Licensors (include Tiffany in prep)
      1. Total Sales Rolling 12
      2. Top customers Rolling 12
      3. Royalty payments
  3. It will be left up to the sales person if they would like to send the objectives to the customer ahead of the meeting.
