? !  We have multiple communication channels. Can

you assure me that we can meet our sales and gross margin targets?

!  Can you tell me how to make my budget more effective – what to increase and what to decrease?

!  How can I get real-time support to improve performance in merchandising and marketing?

!  Are my promoted items and categories performing at the expected level? At the end of season, will we be left with excess inventory?

THESE ARE CRITICAL TIMES FOR RETAIL…Change in consumer behavior is happening more rapidly than retailers ability to respond
