Proven Winners has worked with 650 retailers to help 5,437 employees become part of the Proven Winners Certified Retailers Program this spring.
The free online program educates garden center staff members about Proven Winners products -- while helping the stores become more accessible to customers. Each Certified Retailer is listed at the top of Proven Winners' "find a retailer" search results page online. Each year 600,000 gardeners search the site for a local garden center, making the program a great way to find new customers at an important time of the year.
Retailers interested in the program can still enroll employees. It's easy -- just have staff members watch the online training movie then take the I-Garden Challenge online anytime. If you need a hard copy or DVD, those are available as well.
Each certified employee will receive a FREE t-shirt once everyone completes the training program.
