English term
individual store sales flag
While these local reviews and ratings can be the lifeblood of small businesses, they can also have an enormous impact on regional, national, and even global concerns, as their larger reputations are pegged to customer opinion at the local level.
“Think about businesses that operate hundreds or thousands of locations,” says Jeff Rohrs, chief marketing officer at the reputation management software platform Yext. “Their brand reputation isn’t just won at a national level; it’s won store by store in the communities they serve. Even the most reputable brands see ***individual store sales flag*** in the face of bad local customer experiences. As a result, such brands need to train and empower local managers such that they can respond to negative online sentiment in a manner befitting a company that wants to be a lasting part of communities it serves.”
Thank you.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

to decline in interest, attraction, or value: flagging stock prices
to flag = to slow down
So nationwide management can notice a slow down / downturn / fall in sales from any one shop due to bad publicity locally; in other words, it doesn't only affect the local store itself, but gets noticed by top managamen at national level.
