"Retail Rock Star?"
Our super easy-to-use, cloud-based app uses our proprietary formula and the monitoring of key product categories, margins, projections, turns and more to ensure maximum ROI on your many times sizable inventory investment. Inventory made easy, is what we've created for you. Many think Shopify, QuickBooks, Stripe and other retail platforms do this already, but they simply DO NOT, but they do provide the stats you need for your OpenToBuy.co to support your rockstar status.
First, hop on your laptop or desktop (sorry phones/tablets are a no go for this), then make sure you're using your Chrome, Firefox or MS Edge browser, then tap the "TRIAL" button below & follow the step by step directions and follow along in our "Set Up Your OpenToBuy.co" video series and in just a few minutes you're all set.

managing your inventory financial data is NOW 100% easier
Our “Open-To-Buy” system was developed for both brick & mortars and e-commerce operations. Enhanced and tested over the past seven years to provide retailers like you with the power to successfully manage your inventory purchases easily and affordably. It automatically tracks, calculates and updates all areas of the OTB as information is entered to keep you up to date and knowing exactly where you stand with each category, every month and for the year.
It also tracks purchases by vendor to see where your dollars are being spent. It can be adjusted at any time and as actual sales and COGS (Cost of Goods Sold) are inputted following the closing of a month, the template automatically updates everything. Thus, you always know exactly where you stand with OpenToBuy.co.

inventory can sink your business, it's time to take control
As a product-based business, the largest outlay of cash and greatest impact on your profitability is purchasing inventory.
There is a direct correlation and impact between inventory management, cash flow and profitability.
Having an Open-To-Buy strategy in place drastically reduces the possibility of cash flow issues, lost profitability through improper purchasing, and increases the possibility of realizing the full profit margin on items sold and less goods placed on sale at lower than retail pricing.

“I don’t think we’d be in business if it wasn’t for the "Open-To-Buy" system. It has allowed us to manage our inventory and cash flow hand-in-hand. We can purchase inventory months in advance and know when to “put the brakes” on the buying when our actual sales were below plan or increase our purchases if our forecasts were exceeded by our sales. The "Open-To-Buy” system is an invaluable tool every retailer needs.”

“Since we started using the "Open-To-Buy” system, we’ve gained so much more control over our cash flow. Using the sales projections we make each month, we are able to get a clear sense of how much inventory we can bring in in any given month, and when to hold off on buying. It has been a great tool for understanding and growing our business.”
