Repeat after me, “I NEED to analyze data for my boutique.” There is a huge difference today in tracking data, and analyzing the right data. Today, without having access to the quality information a robust POS system provides, you are operating in the dark. Today, we are diving into the top 5 reports you need to analyze weekly in your business, helping you better analyze sales, categories, brands, inventory, customer patterns, team performance and more.
In this episode, Ashley and Geoff, a man with 30 years of retail experience with well known brands, breakdown what reports, what the data means, and why it matters so much. Get ready to take notes with LOADS of actionable takeaways this week!
