A good retail manager needs to wear many hats without compromising any part of their role and these days more than ever before. However, with so much data, stores, tasks to fulfill, and employees, it’s just too much to handle manually. We developed an algorithm that mimics the work of retail managers, especially when it comes to sales. Itidentifies merchandise pain points on a store level, alerts the store manager, and guides him to fix them. We implement it in a task management tool explicitly designed for the retail market and create an Automated Data-Driven Task Management Tool that guides all managers to excellence and improve sales. | $3M / Seed / Sep 04, 2018 |
