Timely, accurate POS and inventory data transformed into actionable insights can transform your account teams into your buyers’ most valuable resources—and transform your sales.

Proactively identify and respond to sales opportunities and inventory risks. Build stronger retailer partnerships at all levels. Grab more physical and digital shelf space to drive greater volume and revenue growth.

Weekly or Monthly Data Is Directional At Best


Managing your business via spreadsheets can lead to poor planning and execution, as well as lost sales, consumer loyalty, and retailer trust. 

Sales and account teams need the right data at the right time to make the right decisions that will increase sales.

Spend less time wrangling and wrestling data and more time developing and leveraging meaningful insights. Make data-driven decisions to influence retailers to put your products on the shelf, keep them there, and view you as the authority for sales insights and solutions that will make you and your retailers more profitable.

TESTIMONIALS

“Retail Velocity and its VELOCITY® platform have been a real strategic asset for us. In addition to bringing on additional revenues, we also credit VELOCITY with our ability to give our customers tangible proof of our impact on their bottom line and prove our value to them over time. Our customers want to know how we can do all the things we do—how we provide the timely and accurate reporting no one else can. That's a huge competitive advantage, and we credit VELOCITY®."
—Vice President of Sales, National Sporting Goods Supplier
“It’s all about greater visibility. The VELOCITY® platform lets us share information internally and with retailers more quickly, which lets people make better decisions and react more quickly to sales opportunities or critical issues. For example, we’re able to easily identify a retailer’s top 200 stores and if there’s a sale next month, I can tell them that we should send these stores extra product because they ran out the last time. I can even identify a list of stores that don’t have any of our products on their shelves, and that’s really free money we don’t want to lose.”
—Senior National Account Manager, Global Home Essentials Company
“Our customers want to know how we can do all the things we do—how we provide the timely and accurate reporting no one else can. That's a huge competitive advantage, and we credit VELOCITY®."
—Vice President of Sales, National Sporting Goods Supplier
“With VELOCITY®, we’ve created a much more efficient process that drastically reduces the time we spend getting and analyzing retail data. Because the process used to consume so much personnel time, sales and marketing teams sometimes went without having all the data they’d have liked to have. That doesn’t happen anymore.”
—Sr. Manager, Consumer Shopper Insights, Global Apparel Manufacturer
“Having a ‘single version of the truth’ and making that truth easily accessible is a huge benefit for us. It eliminates conversations over what’s the right data and puts us immediately in a position to make use of the data. With VELOCITY® and Microsoft’s Power BI platform, we can use advanced analytics for more in-depth and insightful analyses.”
