The Bright Side (of inventory management)

So often when we receive bad news it is followed by this advice, “Look on the bright side though….” As a people, the ability to do that is what keeps us going when times are tough. While we can wallow for a bit, if we continue to do it for too long, things will start to slide and our business, relationships, etc will start to suffer. Today we’re going to talk about the potential bright side to inventory management woes. And introduce you to the world's best inventory management tool for small business. Did we mention it's FREE!

Whatever type of inventory you stock, there are always some items that sell better than anticipated and some that don’t sell as well as you had hoped. While neither situation is ideal for a retailer, over time they are unavoidable. Regardless of how accurate your sales forecasts are, there is always the potential for surprises. You may have lost some potential sales because you ran out of a popular item, but on the bright side you made a profit and had a nice cash flow going thanks to that hot seller. If you still have stock sitting around months after you ordered it, on the bright side this is an opportunity for you to run a sale or do some creative bundling to move that less than desirable item out of inventory. You see where we’re going with this.
