SOLUTIONS TO MAXIMIZE RESULTS
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Now that you understand the basics of OTB inventory
management, let's focus on maximizing results. Here
are some tips to help you get the most out of your OTB:
* Create a clear plan. Create a plan for how and when
you want to buy and replenish inventory. This will make
it easier to manage the ebbs and flows of your store's
daily demand and future supply needs.
* Allocate appropriate funds. Ensure you set aside
enough funds in your budget to cover current and future
buying needs. Not having enough money can strain your
cash flow, so ensure you have an adequate cushion to
help with any unexpected costs or delays.
* Track your results. Finally, remember to track your
OTB results so that you can adjust and modify them as
needed. Pay attention to what is selling well and when,
as well as what isn't selling and why. Make adjustments
accordingly to ensure optimal results in future
ordering cycles.
By following these tips, you can be confident that the
performance of your OTB inventory management system
is meeting both current needs and future expectations
for sales growth.
OTB inventory management can be an excellent tool
for retailers. It allows store owners to manage inventory
more efficiently in order to maximize profits. However,
it is not a one-size-fits-all solution, and there are limits
to what it can do. It should be used in conjunction with
other inventory-management techniques and strategies
to ensure the best results.
With the right plan and knowing your limits, OTB
inventory management can help save money, prevent
overbuying and optimize profits. By leveraging the
right mix of OTB and other inventory-management
measures, retailers can create a compelling, profitable
inventory plan. By using the right software, the process
can become even easier.
