powerful small business inventory management solutionYou may be facing an uphill battle right now when it comes to the profitability of your small business.

Today's post will help you do just that. Keep reading to learn how Stockpile can help get you back on upswing.

Out of Stock 

During the recent pandemic out of stock scenarios were common place. With people hoarding hand sanitizer, toilet paper, and canned goods finding one of these items on the shelf was akin to winning the lottery. Now that things are returning to normal it's important to avoid out of stock situations whenever possible. Running out of an item can mean more than just losing a single sale. Disappointing your customers can lead to a negative impression of your business. It can also send customers to your competitors. The impact of not having an item in stock can lead to negative ripples that will hurt your business for weeks or even months to come.

Overstock

Of course, the flip side is the overstock situation which can also be bad for business. If you have stock on hand that isn't selling you are losing valuable space storing it. It can also make it harder to locate items that are needed by your customers. When you can't find what they want, even when you're sure you have it, that is a problem. Typically, businesses end up discounting products to get rid of overstocks. That can mean selling items at a loss which is seldom good for business.
