"To be a good merchandiser you simply need to make sure that goods are in the right stores, or online, at the right time and the right price! To do this you need to have strong commercial awareness and the ability to forecast and predict future trends, as well as have high levels of product and customer awareness to foresee demand. A love of numbers is a must as you will need to analyse data to set selling prices and plan promotions and price reductions. You should be able to work in a busy environment and it is also essential to have strong communication skills, computer skills, be confident and highly organised."
