This new dashboard focuses on 6
critical areas of retail to assist you on making key decisions by
representing data in a graphical & easy to understand format.
We think these 6 metrics are among the most
important metrics that Retailer should be focusing on to
import the profitability of their businesses.
Where Are We Today - Gives you a snapshot of
the overall sales & liabilities as it stands Today, this powerful tool
can also be expanded to a desired time period.
What's Not Selling - This gives you a visual understanding
of what is not performing in your
business. Deadstock in any business is lost cash.
This report gives you the ability to make decisions on
this underperforming stock whether it
be discounting or other stock reductions strategies to unlock
this lost cash.
What Am I Missing Out on - This give you a list of
items that have sold out and potential missed opportunity. The visual
sales history will assist in ensuring the right items are restocked to
ensure future revenue is not missed out on.
What Sells With What - This gives you an
insight to consumer basket analysis. Through this you will see exactly
what stock items sell with other stock items and from this you will be able
to leverage upsell opportunities, co-location and promotion opportunities.
This also shows the sold alone percentage so you can see item
upsell efficiency.
Is Theft An Issue - This
provides a in-depth visual overview of all the retailer audit log
records by reason, number of occurrences by time day. This will
assist in identifying staff theft/training issues that may need
to be addressed within the business.
When Are We Busiest & Quietest - This
is a visual overview detect any quiet or peak times in your business by
displaying over the week as well as detailed by hour
