How to get a price tag for a product

The price tag is a mandatory component of trading activities. Its main function is to convey to the buyer the basic truthful information about the product, country of manufacture and price. But even experienced sellers find it difficult to tell what should be displayed on the price tag. Meanwhile, the "Code of the Sale of Certain Groups of Goods", which was approved in 1998 by the Government of the Russian Federation, can answer this question.

You will need

• - price tag

• - a pen

• - seal of a trade organization

Instruction manual

1

Write (type) the name of the trade organization at the top of the price tag. This information will be a kind of hidden advertising for your store.

2

Indicate the product in large legible font. In the pursuit of "beauty", one does not need to write in oblique or elaborate handwriting. This can visually spoil the impression of the product. In addition, such a handwriting can be difficult to read from afar. The main background of the price tag should not be combined with the font, otherwise the product information will not be visible.

3

In large print write the price of the product per piece, kilogram or box. This can be done at the bottom of the price tag, but the figure should be clearly outlined against the background of all other information about the product.

4

Indicate the grade of the product on the price tag.

5

Put the signature of the materially responsible person on the price tag. Replace such a signature will help the seal or stamp of the trade organization.

6

Be sure to put the date of registration on the price tag, and if possible - the expiration date of the goods. If this information is not reflected on the price tag, the buyer will be able to present the seller with a request for a refund and moral compensation for the expired goods.

7

Provide additional information. The rules for the sale of certain groups of goods also provide for the indication of additional information - about the country of manufacture and the specific manufacturer, information about important consumer properties of the goods (composition, purpose). This will allow the buyer to quickly navigate the choice of goods without asking for clarifications from sellers.

8

Choose price tags for a particular group of products that are similar in shape or size. Label this product group on the price tags. For example, in the children's department of toys in the corner of the price tag you can depict a teddy bear. And in the department where children's clothing is sold, you can use price tags with the image of a T-shirt.

Useful advice
