I would recommend everyone to join this course and learn about Merchandising and how it work in market.
It was a very good experience, it was my first time to use Coursera and I really like it. Thank you.
I loved it although relevant stories are more on furniture displays, I can relate my experience of visiting IKEA store. I can revisit my days in fashion store. Thanks a lot.
It was a really "Introduction" to find a comprehensive understanding of Merchandising. I would recommend it if you are looking for an easy understanding short course.

I have taken several courses and have been pleasantly surprised with Introduction to Merchandising because it is a course that has not only been well prepared in content but the instructor has made the class a small and pleasant journey through key concepts supported by real examples and valuable comments. I liked it and I recommend it.
As a former consultant, who implemented sales analysis solutions for Americas large retailers, I found the course useful in learning about designing the layout for a store to maximize customer engagement and sales.

The speaker was great, but I was hoping for more information on how to merchandise products and not as much about the concepts and philosophies behind why and how things are done. I do. appreciate what I learned.
Bare minimum basics - might be interesting for someone who never worked in retail. Super generic, almost no value
Good and key concepts
good
Very basic, and not supported by official frameworks. The examples given are limited. A lot of repetition in each video.
