What are the benefits of using data analytics for wholesalers?
Streamline your inventory
As in any business, managing your inventory is key. Storage costs money and low-margin items aren't the best for your bottom line. You are likely to have thousands of line items, if not more, and the need to distinguish the low margin items from the high margin items is key.
Our sales enablement tool will trawl through your sales data, it will highlight your top-grossing items, your best and your worst sellers, and those that generate you the best profit margin.
“We are using sales-i to identify when and where our margins may be slipping. If we are being undercut by a chain retailer, we know quickly and can work to rectify this for our customers.”
