Mastering Inventory & Cash Flow: Retail Success Strategies with Dane Cohen

Pete Mohr welcomes Dane from Management One for a no-nonsense conversation about one of the most critical and misunderstood aspects of retail: inventory. They explore the difference between inventory management and inventory planning, why open-to-buy isn’t outdated, and how retailers can use data to stop guessing and start profiting—even in uncertain times.

What You’ll Learn:
 → Why slashing expenses won’t save your store
 → The real cost of dead inventory (and what to do about it)
 → How open-to-buy forecasting gives you control
 → The mistake of underbuying when business slows
 → Why now is the time to double down on your best categories
