Retail Analytics Handbook 1:
Using Data to Drive Sales

Syndicated, Wholesale and Inventory metrics that move the needle.

Every sale, every shipment, evert out-of-stock shelf is a plot point.

When you’re running a business, sales data isn’t just numbers on a page–it’s the story of your business. 




Retail sales data is the foundation of almost every major decision in a CPG company. Whether you’re an executive mapping out strategy, a sales manager pushing for better performance, a trade marketing specialist planning promotions, or an analyst deciphering trends, understanding retail data is essential. The brands that truly know their numbers are the ones that make smarter decisions, capture more shelf space, and outmaneuver the competition. In short, retail data tells you what’s selling, where it’s selling, and why. If you learn to interpret that story, you can write the next chapter of growth for your business.
