1. Challenge

Managing a huge catalog of tens of thousands of products becomes an impossible task to handle without the right tools to do so. Being clear about competitiveness, reference to reference, and maximizing sales and margins in this scenario with a correct pricing policy, is tremendously costly without technology.

The leading health and beauty e-commerce started using flipflow with the main objective of controlling its extensive product catalog and being able to monitor prices one by one. It was unable to do this manually due to the sheer volume of data involved. As a result, it has been able to create a pricing and assortment strategy that allows it to stay competitive.

“Flipflow allows us to react from the sales department and ensure our offer in all channels by having our assortment available and without stock-outs in any postal code in Spain. Its daily use ensures that we don’t lose sales due to stock and assortment shortages.”

“In our case we analyze the products of our categories in 45 retailers in 9 countries to have quality information that we use in competitive manufacturing trends for customers, knowing the average price per gram of many products per country and we also detect potential winner products to add to our offer.”

“We have really noticed the improved control over our recommended prices. Manually it was impossible to maintain a price corridor on so many online channels and that brought us a lot of friction. Now we detect unauthorized sales and sellers on marketplaces that cause us conflicts with our customers.”

“We can analyze our own and competitors’ price movements on a daily basis and have improved our revenue by adjusting prices on a daily basis in terms of pricing and promotional strategy.”

“This is definitely the future of retail. Flipflow gives us an improvement in the quality and structure of the information and considerable savings over traditional market research from well-known consulting firms that sell aggregate data without detail including information we don’t need.”

“Flipflow is core to us in setting prices on a daily basis for more than 60,000 SKUs and maintaining our automatic repricing system in a very competitive industry.”
