| Selling retail products requires a good inventory management system. The complexity of buying and selling products in a client centric spa and salon is a challenge Virtual Spa & Salon can meet.
VS&S inventory management makes life easier because it's easy for the staff to use. The business can maintain a Just In Time inventory system; not too much on the shelf and not too little.
VS&S provides the inventory manager with an automatic order based upon minimum/maximum or reorder points and reorder quantities. Compare your min/max with a VS&S Suggested Order report based on actual sales. Combined with sell through and holiday fluctuation reports, the business is able to manage a just-in- time inventory. Why take up shelf space with slow moving products? Think of the ROI.
For spas and salons with larger product inventories, implement cyclical counts. Rather than closing the spa/salon for a day and physically counting, use an intelligent scanner to spot count a few lines a month and only conduct a physical once a year. Using the scanner, a file is produced that VS&S can sync with and update the inventory. CPAs love it because accurate information can be linked with accounting packages.
Bar coding is a standard for manufacturers and scanning is the most accurate. Scan your box tops at the end of the day and track your professional product in a separate VS&S inventory. Transferring product from the retail shelf to the stations is a snap.
VS&S Inventory is a tracking tool. It's up to you to make it your analytical tool. Want to know more? Read article Guide to Inventory Accuracy.
