Inventory Forecasting

For many retailers, purchasing is still a matter of gut feeling. Order too little and you turn customers away on your best-selling products, right when demand peaks. Order too much and your working capital sits locked up in boxes that gather dust in the warehouse for months. Both mistakes are expensive, and sellers operating on multiple channels often lack even a complete picture of the total sales velocity per product.

Purchasing advice based on real sales data

StoreLinkr prevents both out-of-stock situations and unnecessarily high inventory levels with intelligent inventory forecasting. The platform analyzes your historical sales data across all channels combined: your webshop on WordPress/WooCommerce, Shopify, or SitePack, plus marketplaces such as Bol, Kaufland, and eBay. Based on that combined sales velocity and its trends, you receive accurate purchasing advice telling you which product to reorder, when, and in what quantity.

The forecasts account for exactly the factors that make purchasing hard. You configure lead times per supplier, so the advice arrives early enough for replenishment to land before you run out. Seasonal peaks and trends are weighed in, so you automatically receive more generous advice in the run-up to busy periods. And the more history becomes available, the sharper the forecasts get.

Warnings before things go wrong

Alongside periodic purchasing advice, you can set alerts for products at risk of dropping below a critical stock level. No more combing through lists yourself: StoreLinkr actively notifies you when action is needed. Combined with oversell protection, you also avoid overselling on your channels while replenishment is underway.

What it delivers

The weekly manual review of sales lists, the guesswork on order quantities, and the panic orders when a best-seller suddenly runs out: that work disappears. Your purchasing decisions become data-driven instead of intuitive, your working capital is deployed more efficiently, and the right product is in stock at the right time.

Inventory forecasting with purchasing advice fits any seller holding their own stock, from a compact webshop to a multi-channel operation with thousands of items. Especially with a broad assortment, where you cannot possibly watch every product yourself, automated purchasing advice makes the difference.
