Growing Beauty Supply Chain Saves Hours, Trims Costs, and Brings in New Revenue
Venus Beauty Supply matured from a family men’s store into a chain of two beauty product locations in Spartanburg, South Carolina. But the makeover brought new challenges, such as managing 60,000 ever-changing SKUs, many of which were not barcoded. Identical products came from several vendors. Previous software created work by losing hours of data entry, misreporting stock levels, and causing unwise purchases.
Then Venus installed POS Unlimited’s beauty-supply solution. Its preloaded database contains most beauty products and their vendors, standardizing records and saving weeks of data entry. Mobile PDA enables walk-around stock management and purchasing. Owner and staff can now spend more personal time with customers, showing off new products and promoting repeat business. Venus also saves nearly a full staff person’s wages per week through streamlined inventory and purchasing tasks.
