100 WAYS: #21 Scale Back Orders But Pounce On Deals
– May 17, 2010
Proper cash management is extremely important in today’s economy. It is probably not wise to tie up your cash with inventory or supplies unless absolutely necessary. Most of your suppliers can deliver your requests within 24 hours so try to time your orders until you absolutely must restock.
Only order large quantities when the price break warrants it. Even though suppliers are starting to offer substantial discounts it is important to ask these two questions:
- DO I really need this quantity?
- WHEN can I reasonable expect to use or sell this?
