Find out how much spreadsheet and SaaS sprawl is costing Boutique Retail and Specialty — and where a purpose-built internal tool pays off.

Signs of tool sprawl in Boutique Retail and Specialty

Buying is gut-feel based on the last trade show — open-to-buy is a back-of-the-envelope number, and slow movers tie up cash that the next season needs.
POS, e-commerce, and accounting are three separate systems with three different inventory counts; staff guess what is in stock when a customer asks.
Owner is the bottleneck on merchandising, marketing, ordering, and store ops — every decision routes through one person and the business can't scale past their hours.
Email list and SMS list are stale, segmentation is by ZIP code at best, and 'loyalty program' is a punch card that nobody redeems.
