Variants & inventory basics

Variants and inventory are where messy stores lose money. Set up options cleanly, track stock honestly, and avoid overselling and dead stock.

Variants (size, color) and inventory tracking seem mundane but quietly cause lost sales: overselling erodes trust, out-of-stocks lose orders, and dead stock ties up cash. Clean setup and simple stock discipline prevent all three. AI structures your variants and a reorder rule from your data; you keep the counts honest.

Messy variants and sloppy stock counts quietly bleed money. Overselling burns trust, stockouts lose orders, and dead stock traps cash.

Clean setup plus a simple reorder rule prevents all three. AI can structure your variants and compute a reorder point from your sales rate. You keep the physical counts honest, because only real stock data prevents overselling.
