THE CHALLENGE

backlist and editorial stock management in bookshops

In backlist and editorial stock management in bookshops, manual work is slow, depends on staff and leaves room for error; automating it without knowing the sector's flow is a risk. The difference is an agent with rules, exceptions and control, built for your operation.

  • Catalog that never updates

    Thousands of titles, new releases and out-of-print items coexist without a control that avoids ordering sold-out or duplicate books.

  • Slow backlist turnover

    The backlist accumulates unsold copies that tie up capital and take display space.

  • Suppliers and terms scattered

    Discounts, lead times and terms per distributor are negotiated by hand and lost among invoices.
