Imagine this scenario: You’re out on a service call to one of your newer customers. You get there and discover that you need a certain part to fix their equipment. You call the home office and they don’t know if that part is in stock. What do you tell your customer? Sorry I can’t fix your problem today because I don’t have that part in stock. It may take me a couple of days. Your customer thanks you for your time and right after you leave, is on the phone calling one of your competitors, who has the part. You’ve just lost a sale. You’ve just lost a customer. You’ve just lost potential sales with that customer.
Sadly, too often this scenario plays out every day, whether it’s for a home air conditioner, dishwasher, or some other important piece of equipment. You lost that sale, because you don’t have effective inventory management control. Unfortunately, as a small business owner, you don’t have the revenue stream to purchase a fancy computer program for your business, either. Nor should you have to.
