Jewelry Analytics Software

Predictive Analytics Solutions for Jewelry Retailers.

Jewelry retailing is unique and challenging for several reasons that make traditional demand forecasting, and merchandising systems fall short when it comes to optimizing the planning, inventory management and promotions. Determining the right assortment mix across multiple channels is challenging enough, maintaining In-Stock % throughout a volatile season while running hundreds of promotions can appear impossible. While these problems exist in other verticals as well, the product mix jewelry retailers offer consists of an especially sizable investment.

Retalon’s predictive analytics and machine learning platform identifies the optimal assortment mix across the business while accounting for dozens of critical factors such as seasonality, forecasted demand, events, promotions, competition, new product introductions, and much more.

Designed for the Jewelry business, our solutions will provide you with significantly improved forecast accuracy, reduced out-of-stocks and lost sales, a boost in sales and turnover, and improved customer experience across your brand.

All Retalon plans are based on this accurate forecast and are based on a “single version of truth.” Jewelry retailers will find Retalon’s Planning solution highly flexible, allowing to plan by any attributes that go beyond restrictive ERP systems. Planners will also save a lot of time with Retalon’s smart suggestions and automation features. Our plan types include Financial, Merchandise, Assortment, Store-Level, Pre-Season, In-Season, and Open-to-Buy.

Purchasing, Allocation, and Inventory Optimization:

An optimal product mix at the right channel/location is paramount when it comes to Jewelry retailers. Retalon’s Inventory Management solutions determine the optimal assortment mix for each individual store and channel, enabling retailers to offer a strong assortment variety, while optimizing assortment depth based on a predictive analytics engine. This results in significant reduction of inventory costs, out-of-stocks, and lost sales, and a boost in sales. Retalon’s solutions automatically suggest purchase order quantities and smart allocation & replenishment schedules to manage your inventory proactively.

Jewelry Data Analytics for Retailers With Multiple Lines

Not all Jewelry products behave the same. Retalon’s solutions are designed to work with the different type of product lines that Jewelers may be carrying including loose stones, fashion costume jewelry, bridal, watches, cufflinks, and more. Some products may be a unique SKU of their own, some categories will have frequent new product introductions, many products will be seasonal, while others are running products that are replenishable. Whatever product mix a Jewelry retailer carries, Retalon generates a demand forecast for every location/SKU combination. Furthermore, the system allows retailers to easily work with multiple product groups, location clusters, and product families to support the different processes, promotion types, and even the cannibalization effect of substitute products.

Optimizing Promotions for Jewelry Retailers:

Jewelry retailer run thousands of promotions each year. Many of these promotions run simultaneously through various channels and media types, some are personalized/targeted while others have a wider reach. Retalon recommends promotions down to store/SKU level that result in maximized ROI. The system accounts for multiple factors (price-elasticity, seasonality, base-line forecast, etc.), and support many different promotional goals (maximized revenue, traffic generator etc.) Moreover, Retalon intelligently connects the Promotions solution with the Inventory Management solution through our unified predictive analytics platform. This allows Jewelry retailers to proactively adjust purchase orders, allocation and replenishment schedules to ensure the right additional inventory comes in to the right store in time to support the promotional uplifts.

Localized, Personalized Assortment & Improved Customer Service:

Savvy customers have more access to brands and products than ever before. The retail landscape has changed, as so have consumer expectations. Customers now expect to find localized and personalized assortment, and yet also get a consistent experience with your brand across all channels and devices. Retalon’s agility and flexibility allows retailers to stay ahead of the consumer in the highly dynamic jewelry retailing environment.
