Why Style Investment

Remove the uncertainty in your investments.

Placing orders beyond confirmed sell-in is an uncertain investment. Style Investment gives you a clear data basis - comparing current sell-in with previous seasons and analysing customers' reorder patterns. The result: less residual stock and more goods sold at full price.

Optimal buying quantities

Order the right number and size mix from day one.

Higher hit rate

Identify winner styles early in the process and cut the weak ones.

Better liquidity

Tie up capital only in styles with documented potential.

Strategic focus

Maximise earnings through precise buying quantities.

Make your collection buying precise and profitable. FASHIONBOARD unites historic performance with real-time sell-in, so you invest exactly where the potential is greatest.

The lifecycle

Full control from budget to delivery.

Follow the collection through six critical phases - and take command of every investment.

01
Budgeting

Strategic budgeting

Set direction early. Budgets per country, sales rep and customer, built on historic data - aligning growth targets with real buying potential.

02
Rating

Digital assessment

Involve your experts. Digital ratings from agents and key customers qualify the collection before production - market-tested in advance.

03
Sell-in

Real-time monitoring

Follow sell-in as it happens. Live data and CRM integration to monitor performance and steer the sales effort proactively.

04
Evaluation

Precise trimming

Align sell-in before production. A sharp overview of styles below the minimum threshold lets you cut the weak ones in time.

05
Disposition

Intelligent disposition

Convert sell-in to profit. Combine sell-in data with expected reorders to optimise stock without burning capital or missing revenue.

06
Delivery

Delivery & launch

Complete the cycle. Final adjustments at style and category level so disposition matches budget and market - landing with maximum margin.
