THE SIX WEEKS
This is the bill you pay for not having a team.
Every chain leaks money in the same five places during peak, and it’s the same five every year. The big guys have a hundred people watching for it. Here’s what it costs when nobody is.
Without a data team
With Genloop
Toggle it. Same chain, same six weeks, same six SKUs going wrong. The only difference is whether anyone caught it while there was still time to act.

WHAT WE MOVE
These aren’t features. They’re the decisions we take off your plate between now and January, and the questions you get to stop guessing on.
1 · Demand forecasting
Buy and staff against what’s coming, not last year’s totals.
Forecasts by store, category, and day, rebuilt as the season moves. Your reorders and your schedules follow the same number.
What will store A actually sell the week of Dec 15?
Which categories are tracking ahead of plan right now?
Do I have enough hours on the floor for the Saturday before Christmas?
2 · Inventory & availability
Your best sellers stay on the shelf through the biggest weekend.
Sell-through, weeks of supply, and stockout risk watched daily across every store, with the transfer or reorder already worked out.
Which SKUs run out before the weekend they matter most?
Where is the same stock sitting dead in another store?
What do I reorder this week, and how much?
3 · Promotions & markdown
Take the markdown when it still moves units.
Promo lift measured while the promo is running, not after. Markdown exposure flagged early enough that you set the price instead of January setting it for you.
Did that promo actually lift, or just discount what was already selling?
Which categories are heading into January at full price?
What’s the margin cost of waiting two more weeks?
4 · Store & channel performance
Know which store is slipping this week, not next quarter.
Comp, basket, conversion, and margin by store, with the reason attached. Online, BOPIS, and ship-from-store sit in the same view as the floor.
Is the comp miss traffic or basket?
Which three stores are dragging the chain, and why?
Where are pickup orders getting cancelled?
5 · Customer & loyalty
Spend peak budget on customers who come back.
New versus returning revenue, loyalty redemption, and basket by segment, so the holiday spend buys a customer instead of a transaction.
Is this growth from loyal buyers or one-time deal hunters?
Which segment is worth the extra offer?
What did last year’s holiday customers do in Q1?
6 · The manual work
Get the Monday review in your inbox instead of building it.
Weekly store review, exception list, and the alerts that matter, delivered to email, Slack, or Teams before you open a spreadsheet. Ask a follow-up in plain English and get it in seconds.
Who is still rebuilding the same report every Monday?
What should I have been told on Friday but found out Tuesday?
Can my store managers ask this themselves?
