Retail has become vastly more complicated in recent years, with new fulfillment demands like BOPIS and rapid delivery on the customer side and bottlenecks on the supply side. As a result, the old ways of measuring store success no longer give an accurate picture of the health of a business.
To succeed in today’s omnichannel world of retail, executives must adopt a new set of data-based Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Here are some key traits of “retail winners,” i.e. retailers whose sales outperform the norm:
- They use executive dashboards to keep top leadership informed on the business in real time;
- Findings are delivered in a manner that is clean and concise, making decision-making quick and easy; and
- They use modeling tools to anticipate operational scenarios before they happen.
