Working with a number of retail clients, I was able to refocus their approach to the data that they produced so that they benefited from managing their business based on that data in addition to their current tools. Some of the changes that they made were: better buying habits to reduce inventory for maximum return on investment, new approaches to weekly replenishment, forecasting future buys, reworking their daily POS audits and establishing better pricing/markdown schedules.
