Listen Later

In this episode, I share a critical lesson we learned the hard way—why relying solely on past sales data to forecast inventory for seasonal products can be a big mistake.

I break down the risks of over-relying on historical data, how we adjusted our approach, and what you can do to avoid the same mistake.
