Why is everything overpriced?

Why do you sell so much useless shit

In the Antman movie, he got those red and blue devices which he can throw at stuff to enlarge or reduce the size of it. What would happen if he smacked the red and blue devices together?

>>35358999
I hate you guys. You never just let me buy my shit and leave. You always have to try and sell me extra shit I don't want or need.

It really depends what company you are looking for. Some companies like cellucor are extremely close with gnc so they will usually always have the best price. Prices are also marked up depending on the promos going on. Like if it's buy one get 50% on the other, usually the price will be marked up. Some products you can get cheaper at gnc than anywhere else, worse case scenario we price match bodybuilding, and vitaminshop. But yes, there are also redicoulous prices on some product in order to force people to get the gold card, or just because the consumer just dosent know better

Unfortunately it is a sales job, so we're kinda forced to do so in order to make sure we reach quotas, and plus commission is a plus;)

>>3535901
Good sales skills+dumb consumers=nice commission; )

Has your store sold a single one of the small ON Whey things behind you? Only asking because I don't think they've sold well anywhere.

do you ever get amped up on preworkout in the storeroom and ohp the computer

Why are so many GNC employees so full of broscience? Every time I've ever walked into a GNC store to buy protein powder, some retard tries to talk to me about meal timing.

Not OP, but I do know why. Broscience is good for sales. You say some stuff confidently that can't be refuted and people go for it.
>>
>>35359021
They cancel each other like an acid and a base.

It'll probably have a release of energy, and leave you with water and salt as residues.
>>
>>35359328
broscience is what godtier for sales. Most people know jack shit about supplements and buy from word of mouth. Tell them something that seems that it could work and the placebo effect will do the rest.
>>
>>35358999
What supplements do you recommend?
>>
>>35359328

I want to believe that it would be bad for sales in the long run. If you start making up bullshit, then you're more likely to scare away all of the people that are serious about lifting and might actually produce repeat business.

That being said, I suppose there are people, even those that have lifted for a number of years, that still go around parroting broscience shit, so you may have a point.

Yo I work at GNC as well. Shit job, m8. Sometimes I buy stuff with my discount and resell it/trade protein powder for blowjobs from this one gurl.

>>35359354
Nobody, gyms or supplement stores, make any money off of serous lifters. The money comes from tricking a novice into buying more than he needs, gets frustrated and quits.

Jk, literally all you need is preworkout, cheap creatine, some protein, multivitamin, and possibly a amino

Also a GNC employee. You made me laugh.

Any clue why Modern BCAA got recalled? That was my favorite branch of amino acids. Over the summer I was on a EC stack while drinking water servings of those a day, and I feel it really helped me recover like crazy. I was running for 1 hour and lifting every single day.
>>
>>35359592
Two servings** idk how it autocoreected two to water. >>35359592
>>
>>35359432
By pre-workout is that nitro that give you focus and strength?

OK cool apparently I'm not so at loss.

The multivitamin is daily?

>>35358999
I wish you a merry christmas pham.

I was a Senior Manager for GNC for two years in the North East. Had 7 stores under my belt. I just recently got fired (have been trying to get fired for 6 months for unemployment).

Now I just lift and study for school.

Overall fuck that company. They treat their employees like trash. Get out as soon as you can OP. Don't try making that shit into a career.
>>
>>35359592
It's the same company that made jack3d, Usplabs completely went bankrupt after the whole jack3d lawsuits, so all their products are gone

I second this.

Is the nutritional info from their weight gainer truthful? According to it it has an amazing balance between sugars and calories from other carbs, plus as much protein as any other weight gainer for 10 dollars less

How much is employee discount? How often can you use it? Can u buy giftcards with the discount?

Alot of the gnc stuff has suprisingly good nutrition facts, whether or not it's true I'm not sure. Most people don't know this, but the gnc proteins are actually made in the same facility as where optimum nutrition is made
