  • Merchandise Planning Process: Make a Retail Plan in 10 Mins! Yes, you can have a retail merchandise plan in just 10 minutes when you follow the steps I outline in this video!
    It’s true that inventory planning can be a pretty complex process, which is why we provide this service to our Profit Club clients using formulas and algorithms to predict a store’s merchandise plan with 93% accuracy.
    But in its simplest form, a merchandise plan is just a map that tells you how much inventory you should buy and when, to meet your sales goals.
    And you can create a basic merchandise plan in just 10 minutes!
    I’ll show you how in this video.

    I’ve just become a beauty counter manager, and there seems a lot of work to do ( last time department manager job in retail I had was in 2007 so pretty long time ago). I’m so glad I found your channel, I’ll be watching them all.

    Sooo happy I found this video. I'm starting a Demand Planning role next month and needed something like this. Can you explain KPI please?

    • @retailmavens
      @retailmavens  2 роки тому

      I'm glad it was helpful! KPI is short for Key Performance Indicators - this is data that tells us how a particular part of the business is performing, and allows us to make changes to improve. In retail sales for example, we look at KPIs such as sales, average sale, items per sale (IPS) and average item price (AIP) to track our sales performance and learn which areas have room for growth.

    Hello, I just came across your video. It is very informative to understand retail budgeting. Quick question, I am in Gas Station with Convenince Store industry. How do I consider my inventory value? Is it retail value or cost value?

    • @retailmavens
      @retailmavens  10 місяців тому

      Hi there! It depends on what it is you're calculating. In this video and the planning worksheet, we are looking at your planned sales at retail value, and the planned inventory at cost (the formula does that calculation for you in the worksheet). For other calculations we're using the retail value of inventory on hand.

    I took over my mums business 3 years ago which she had let go because of the crisis we had. I live in the Canary Islands, Lanzarote.
    I have been doing the business online and have a warehouse set up as a shop with appointments only as I cant open it to the public as a shop.. I also work full time in the evening in a bar to pay my personal expenses (rent, food, petrol etc).
    I want to be able to open a physical shop later in this year but the thought of trying to figure out what money I should put towards it and inventory, what I need to know before opening the shop etc scares me quite a bit. As leaving my job to open the shop, worries me if it fails and if I should just stick to what im doing now. But I would love to leave my job and do this full time. Is there any advice you could give me? Also thank you for all your videos, they are amazing and have so much information. Much appreciated! Xx

    But what about planning something new, with no last year data?

    • @retailmavens
      @retailmavens  2 роки тому +2

      When you are new and don't have last year's data, you'll have to base your plans on your desired sales. What would your sales need to be in order to cover cost of goods, and your expenses such as rent, payroll, loan payments AND account for some profit? Then use that as your projected sales number. It's always best to be conservative until you have some real data to use!
