Christmas is less than a week away! Can you believe it?
Usually, at this time of year, there is an extra rush of business in the pharmacy.
Stop stressing about the retail madness. Here are 4 tips for you to prepare for the biggest holiday of the year!
1. Outline Holiday Hours
Your signage should clearly reflect the holiday hours. If you have Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and other social media accounts, make sure to announce them. This helps people come in at an early time and should help lessen the rush hour.
2. Check Inventory
ALWAYS double check your inventory. Make sure you have enough supplies, like Medicine-On-Time cards and labels to help get you through the season just in case shipping or your delivery becomes a problem due to ice or snow.

3. Stock Up On Gift Cards
Any additional income can’t hurt. This is a great way to catch those last-minute shoppers picking up medication. Make your pharmacy a one-stop shop!
4. Run Backups
If you have important software, perform a backup daily! This is just in case you lose power due to the weather so you won’t lose important data.
Doing these 4 things, you’ll be more prepared for Christmas. When something unforeseen happens, you can react and recover quickly!
