#139 Inventory Management for Early Brands: Cory Hebert from Cin7, and Jamie Valenti-Jordan, Catapult Commercialization Services
This lesson is an episode of Startup CPG.
Listen to the episodeWhat you'll get
A representative of the inventory software company Cin7 and operations consultant Jamie Valenti-Jordan describe what goes wrong when early brands track ingredients and finished goods in spreadsheets: lost yield, counts that disagree with a co-packer's, lot tracking for recalls and orders arriving from many retailers. The episode is sponsored by the software company, so treat its case for buying software as the sponsor's view, and use the stories to decide what your own spreadsheet needs to track.
Do this week
Make a one-page sheet listing each ingredient and package with what you ordered, used and hold, and compare it with a physical count this week.
