No company is analysed and stripped apart more than Apple, and this latest report from ASYMCO is slightly bizarre yet fascinating.
According to the correlated information the Apple stores generate over $100k per employee, every quarter. In 2010 the revenue was $481,000 per employee. This year this has increased to $320k, up to, and including Q3. The publication makes comparisons with JC Penney who generate around $124k of revenue per year, per staff member.
In other information, every visit to an Apple store generates $45, this is gathered from 250 million visits per year and 222 million of this is generated from Q1 to Q3.
The report adds that if an employee works for 360 hours per quarter then they see 6 visitors per hour, or one every 10 minutes.

Kitguru says: Apple store employees one of the most productive in the industry?
I dont like Apple products, but I was in a store recently with my girlfriend and the staff really are very good. I watched them dealing with people as I was standing there. They also seem to know a good bit about their products. which is the complete opposite of when im in a DIXONS store or similar.
