IDENTIFY relevant POS data
With every performed transaction, your POS system is collecting a ton of data that can be useful in improving your business. This collected data –
typically including sales and inventory data down to a SKU/store level of detail – is valuable to merchants wishing to optimize their business, but it is raw data, and many business owners don’t know where to begin when it comes to how to consume, format and analyze the information – a weekly task.
STREAMLINE your POS data
In today’s retail market, innovative companies are aggregating data by leveraging technologies like AI, machine learning and natural language processing to gain a deeper understanding of industry and consumer expectations.
From this data, businesses can gain insights to keep the competitive advantage. These insights include sales trends, year-over-year comps, performance to plan, out-of-stocks, geographical performance, promotional effectiveness, gross margin, price elasticity and lost sales opportunities.
Having the ability to quickly transform the raw data into organized, actionable reports reflecting these KPIs is critical for businesses to apply what they find to address concerns and to succeed.
