“With the actionable data we receive from First Insight, we are able to identify the items that will be best sellers while also identifying items that will perform poorly,” said Vanessa Stuetzle, Chief Digital Officer of The s.Oliver Group in a statement. “This data helps us to make more informed buying decisions so we can avoid stockouts while keeping more items off the clearance rack.”
