 | | He then became a traveling ‘drummer’ for a wholesale grocer in 1900 and in 1904 a city salesman for a wholesaler. | | | In business, cornering the market is an illegal attempt to buy up enough of a particular commodity to allow the price to be manipulated. | | | Saunders’; bank and his friends were pressured and the price was driven back down; Saunders was forced into bankruptcy having to sell his stock at a loss. |

| | The educational part of his advertisement should be of benefit to the company and to the New York public, which, since the promotion of Piggly Wiggly securities by the James Elliott Business Builders organization, has been only too inclined to look askance at the main Piggly Wiggly concern. | | | Clarence Saunders is willing to sell shares in Piggly Wiggly Company at $55. | | | Saunders, of course, pays his respects to " Wall Street gamblers " and the bankers and brokers who apparently desired to make undue profits out of his stock. |

| | Pigglys were the first to price mark every item in the store, and Saunders introduced the concept of high volume/low profit margin retailing, giving the customer more food per dollar than his clerking–driven competitors. | | | The system kept a running total of the bill for the shopper to pony up at the end of the experience. | | | Saunders' store became a chain, and Piggly Wiggly was the first business to offer today's mundane features such as checkout stands and refrigerated cases to keep produce fresher longer. |

| | Saunders conceived the idea for a self-service grocery store and was able to get enough financial backing to open a store, based on this concept, in Memphis in 1919, with Irl as his store manager. | | | The huge success of this first store caused Saunders to send Irl, and others, on the road to franchise the business model and eventually there were Piggly-Wiggly stores all across the country, and the stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange. | | | One of his fellow workers at this store was a man by the name of Clarence Saunders. |

| | The general trend in retail since then has been to stack shelves at night and let the customers get their own goods and bring them to the front of the store to pay for them. | | | The concept of a self-service grocery store was developed by Clarence Saunders and his Piggly Wiggly stores, and A&P was the most successful of the early chains in the United States, having become common in American cities in the 1920s. | | | In many stores, all products had to be fetched by an assistant from high shelves on one side of a counter while the customers stood on the other side and pointed to what they wanted. |

| | You're hired (via Jerz's Literacy Weblog) |
| | Saunders's idea was simple, but revolutionary: shoppers would enter the store, help themselves to whatever they needed and then carry their purchases to the check-out counter to pay for them. | | | That's another hidden cost -- it takes time and causes stress. | | | Self-service has been around for decades, ever since Clarence Saunders, an American entrepreneur, opened the first Piggly Wiggly supermarket in 1916 in Memphis, Tennessee. |

| | It had open shelves and items were individually priced. | | | Clarence Saunders self-service concept was a dramatic success when it was simple, but when Saunders put the technology first, his concepts quit working. | | | When he died in 1953, Saunders was hard at work on a concept called "Foodelectric." That concept died along with Saunders. |

| | Customers presented their shopping lists to clerks who then selected the required items from the store’s inventory. | | | Prior to 1916, when Clarence Saunders invented the self-service food store and named it Piggly Wiggly, shopping for food was an entirely different experience from what it is today. | | | To understand the special nature of Food Marketing Institute, you have to understand the circumstances that led to its creation. |

| | Why You Need Web-Specific Content :: Sposto Interactive |
| | Clarence Saunders had an inkling that people would buy more if they were allowed to walk down the store's aisles looking at the merchandise, taking items off the shelves and collecting them in a basket as they went. | | | Like Saunders' store, a Web site promotes interactivity, and when done right, it yields more desired results (be them sales, brand awareness, fewer unnecessary telephone calls to your company's Customer Service Department, etc.) than any other communication medium. | | | When people were actively involved in the process, rather than passively awaiting the grocer's help, they bought more. |
