COMMERCE CORNER: PARTNER SPOTLIGHT
Strong sales do not always mean strong profit. In this webinar, Ordoro CEO Jagath Narayan joins ConnectBooks founder and CEO Nachman Lieser to talk about the numbers behind the revenue, including profitability by SKU, break-even points, inventory velocity, landed costs, and cash tied up in products that are not moving.
They also explain why inventory and accounting cannot live in separate worlds. As sales channels, fees, shipping costs, and inventory decisions grow more complex, having the full picture makes it easier to see what is working and where profit may be slipping away.
