As we’re heading into June, the most stocktaker tend to get done, take a moment for a laugh:
“I did a stocktake last week. Turns out I have more excuses than stock.”
“Stocktake time. The one day of the year you find out exactly how many of those have been sitting there since 2019.”
“We did the stocktake. The good news is we know exactly what we have. The bad news is we know exactly what we have.”
“Stocktake is just retail therapy in reverse. Instead of buying things you don’t need, you count things you forgot you had.”
“Asked the team to help with stocktake. Suddenly everyone had a appointment.”
Yes, they are lame, but they are the jokes we have.
Stocktaking is valuable work, serious work. get it right, and you profit. Ignore it, and you for sure lose money.
Beyond the jokes, focus on thew rock and profit!
Here at Tower Systems we can help.
The joke we like is:
We did the stocktake. The good news is we know exactly what we have. The bad news is we know exactly what we have.
Every retailer has been there. The stocktake does not lie — and that is exactly the point. Start with your highest-value categories, or the ranges you are least sure about. Count them, update Tower Systems, and run a dead stock report. What comes back might surprise you. One retailer found $20,000 worth of stock they had forgotten about. Clean data changes what you can see — and what you can act on.
June is the month. Start today. towersystems.com.au
