"Every time you see a sale onsite or a voucher, it was us who have planned that in. We are the owners of the commercial calendar. We plan the calendar before the year starts, and make amendments and adjustments during the year. We also create the actual vouchers and bring the banners live onsite. Then, we analyze the events once we're through with them." shares Anna Wilk, Retail Manager for Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Slovenia, in conversation with Janine Matos in the latest episode of our 'Pieces of me' podcast 📆 Anna shares more about the responsibilities of her team, including local sales strategies and combining an understanding of Zalando’s international strategy with local expertise.
