Retail Isn’t Detail
Saturday, March 31st, 2007As a veteran of systems sales in both golf and specialty retail, I am amazed to see what many software providers believe inventory management is. I guess I should not be surprised since many of these companies have sought the advice of customers to build and modify their products. Let’s face it; green grass golf retailers did not get into the business to open a retail store. They did it because the golf course had to have a place to collect green fees and sell some products needed by golfers. Retail experts, they are not. But don’t feel slighted; most retailers have little more insight into inventory management.
