Inventory Management
With analytics, you can adjust your actions accordingly to the insights you have gain. For most eCommerce stores, inventory is a key concern. Too little inventory can lead to product deficiency and lead to unsatisfactory customers, while too much inventory can cause excessive costs to the company’s finance. Quantity is not the only factor when it comes to inventory, shelf life is crucial too. When products have a short shelf life, cost would be irreversible when it cannot be sold out in time.
