REDMOND, Wash. – Bite Footwear, demonstrating its commitment to supporting retailers in the field, posted a 300 percent increase in their monthly sales average during Edwin Watts Tent Sale Days, June 10-11, in Birmingham, Ala.
"Prior to the tent sale, we certified the Edwin Watts floor staff in how to properly fit customers for Bite shoes," said Tom Cox, Bite National Sales Manager. "Knowledge in the proper fitting system gave the staff a thorough understanding of the technical aspects of our footwear. We know our investment in training translates directly into sales."
Barry Sullivan, Edwin Watts Manger Vestavia, Ala., believes the reason Bite’s shoes sell so well is because of their comfort, affordability and great looks.
"Bite sets themselves apart from other footwear companies by supplying you with great comfort at a reasonable price while at the same time offering trendy styles and a personal shoe bed," Sullivan said.
The "Bitemobile" was also on site for the event. The mobile footwear trailer provides personalized fitting and on location promotion of consumer foot heath.
"Bite shoes are always on the cutting edge of the golf footwear market," said Lynn Farquar, Edwin Watts Manager Birmingham, Ala. "It’s apparent that they care about your foot health and are constantly striving to improve on the extraordinary products they currently offer the customer. With their custom footbeds, sandals, ACs and various designs, it’s evident that Bite has had a major influence on the golf shoe industry … because of that we are able to sell their products very well."
"As part of our expanded and renewed relationship with Edwin Watts, we feel that this is just one of the many great success stories to come," said Cox.
