When you work in retail, it’s easy to get caught up in promotions and inventory and miss the limitless possibilities that drew you into business in the first place. Sometimes in life, it’s smart to step back and take a look at the bigger picture, to see the forest instead of examining individual trees.

Inventory management is all about getting the balance right; making sure you offer the right selection of products and services to the right customers while committing minimized cash and costs.
