Inventory Management Strategies That Improve Cash Flow
ABC analysis, safety stock math, and reorder points — the boring stuff that funds your next hire.
Inventory is cash sitting on a shelf. The best-run brands know exactly how much cash is on which shelf, and how fast it is turning.
Start with ABC analysis: rank SKUs by revenue contribution. Give your A items tight reorder discipline and short lead times. Let C items breathe. Recalculate safety stock quarterly using actual demand variability, not gut feel.
Small improvements in inventory turnover free up working capital faster than almost any other operational change.
