Inventory planning allows you to learn more about your customers and products, better matching sales with the inventory you keep on hand. It's a smart tool for delivering a consistent eCommerce ROI because it helps you control multiple costs. Planning and forecasts minimize the chances that you run out of stock and lose customers. You'll also discover opportunities to lower inventory volumes for slow-moving inventory. Reducing excess inventory frees up your cash and optimizes revenue for products by reducing their storage costs.
Red Stag can help you analyze sales as part of inventory planning. We also offer multiple warehouse locations to help you stage the right inventory closest to your customers, reducing fulfillment costs and speeding up delivery times.
Inventory planning helps your business control a variety of expenses including the management and reduction of slow-moving inventory. These are the products that haven’t shipped out in a while and whose storage costs might be eating into your revenue. In the eCommerce world, slow-moving can be something that doesn’t get ordered in a matter of weeks or across months. What’s important for your business is understanding when these SKUs start costing you more for storage than they generate in sales and overall order value.
Red Stag’s experts can help you run the right inventory planning analytics to assess current stock and make demand forecasts based on past data. You’ll get help understanding how much inventory to carry and if you might be able to reduce your resupply rates to optimize overall spend, while still having products ready for customers.
Inventory planning done right can prepare you to fill orders while reducing inventory expenses.
DO YOU HAVE TOO MUCH CAPITAL TIED UP IN INVENTORY?
We help eCommerce companies review their stock to see how quickly it sells and optimize levels based on how often you reorder goods. Inventory planning may help you identify a better schedule, too, so that you get the best rates on inbound shipping and optimize the shelf space you use.
What Our Customers Say
Red Stag is the only 3PL to care as much about our company as we do. Their operational efficiency and accuracy is only surpassed by their customer service. When they say 100% accurate they mean it!
Chris and the team have exceeded our expectations from the very beginning. We have used Red Stag as our benchmark when looking for fulfillment providers in other parts of the world. Highly recommended!
We moved to Red Stag from another fulfillment company on the East Coast and we have been extremely satisfied with the level of service and support so far. Our customer complaints went to near zero, and what used to take several hours of our time every day is now down to a minimum. Because of their background in eCommerce, they also helped us streamline our own procedures and introduction of new SKUs.
We've been with Red Stag Fulfillment for a few years now and they've been a large part of our success helping us to focus on marketing and other areas of our business. Their accuracy percentage has been top notch which helps support our premium marketing message. Of importance, RSF understands total costs so while their up front costs aren't the cheapest once you factor the costs we previously spent on damage, a lack of inventory accuracy creating a bad PR image, and a lack of package consolidation for multiple item orders they are actually one of the best values in the market.
Kellyco, a family owned business recently celebrated its 60th year in retail. During those years we internally managed all aspects of the company operations, including inventory, warehousing and fulfillment. Trusting another company to handle this task was not one I took lightly. I searched for a competent and trustworthy Third Party Fulfillment partner for three years before being introduced to Red Stag. I knew after our first meeting there was something different about this company and the team running it. Their attention to detail and desire to manage our expectations started before we even signed our agreement.
Red Stag is very easy to do business with and has made logistics much less of a hassle for our small business. Prices are very competitive and service standards are very high. They're continuing to add more options and capabilities to address more of our business needs. Only downside is that you're limited to FedEx (including SmartPost) offerings for shipping parcels/packages.
