Add to Cart is the Australian eCommerce podcast that express delivers all you need to know about the fast-moving world of online retail. Hosted by Nathan Bush, eCommerce super-guru, and Director at eSuite, it is an easy flowing format, that is so engaging you can easily forget that you are actually learning!
SMART IN PLANNING founder, Susan Martin, was invited to join Nathan for a deep dive on Merchandise Planning.
Here’s how Nathan framed it for his audience:
“Have you ever wondered what the hell Merchandise Planners do? They are like the air filters of the retail world – everyone knows they are important but most don’t know what they actually do.
Susan Martin is not just a Merchandise Planner, but one of the best in the country with her experience at Cotton On, Best & Less and The Warehouse Group. Today, Susan is the CEO of SMART IN PLANNING who consults leading retailers on how to optimise their inventory, and ultimately, their profitability.
In this chat, we go deep into the world of stock and stock planning. We discuss, in detail, what a stock plan and forecast should actually look like – from an excel document right through to a specialised system. We also discuss the importance of Planning even in uncertain times like we have today and why all retailers should be looking up to Con The Fruiterer as their inspiration.”
Need we say more???
