Why You Need Automated Inventory Management

If you are a product company, inventory control is definitely part of your business. If you want to grow your business and take the time to switch to automated systems today, you can gather information faster and make smarter decisions about the future.

Here are some reasons why automated inventory systems and automated product reporting are so important to multi-channel vendors:

1. Save time

Spending extra free time analyzing data manually retrieved from different systems and in multiple locations certainly cannot be scaled for your business. And as your order volume grows, all the outdated "systems" you work with today will fail. You can save hours of manual work with automation and concentrate on other important business tasks.

2. Improve scalability

The development of a scalable business model is very dependent on the system you implement. Manually entering inventory in a spreadsheet is not scalable. Emailing and calling your representative to find out how much inventory you have on hand is also non-scalable.

The extra free time you need to analyze data from multiple locations certainly cannot be scaled for your business or personal well-being. As your order volume grows, all the outdated "systems" you use today will break – it's only a matter of time.

3. Reduction of human error

Get rid of the old inventory table template. Entering inventory manually into spreadsheets can often open the door for human error.

Often, many team members need access at any time to edit and update inventory information. This change is not noticed if user access is restricted. This reduces the accuracy of product reporting and increases the likelihood of errors and problems with your purchase.
