Retail Rhythm: Finding the Beat in Inventory Management

Retail Revelations - Retail is retail and though the basic concepts of owning and managing a retail business remain somewhat the same today as they have always been, there are additional challenges that retailers need to contend with; the internet and competition with vendors to name two. The focus will be on retail math and metrics for inventory control, as well as general management issues, planning and strategy. The information that we will be sharing comes from our own experiences as retail store owners, buyers and merchandise managers as well as over 13,000 client reviews conducted over the past forty year as a retail consultant with independent retail clients in every retail segment.
