Management One has been helping retailers plan and grow for 30+ years. We have thousands of clients across the globe, some of whom have been our clients from the start. The reason for their loyalty is simple: they make more real bottom-line dollars with our help than they were making without it. And their investment in Management One is only a fraction of that added revenue. Statistics show that Management One clients’ stores continue to outperform industry averages.
The Management One process is based upon our totally automated Retail Orbit forecast. Using millions of points of data, and highly sophisticated logic, each plan accurately predicts sales, inventories and receipts recognizing each classification’s unique seasonality, sales patterns, turnover potential, and optimal receipt flow for each store. When followed, our plans are 94% accurate. Each plan is not just a sales forecasting tool. It is a dynamic profit plan built from the bottom up to maximize sales.
Our approach is also personalized to help each store achieve their goal of financial security. We partner with you to offer ongoing, hands-on assistance with thoughtful interpretation and analysis, problem solving and planning. We value our relationships. We’d welcome starting one with you, and your business. Working with Management One and David Kent will shorten the road to your financial security.
