Data is everywhere—but are you actually using it to make better business decisions?
Join us Friday, September 18, for a practical Rise & Learn workshop with retail expert Tenley Huste, designed to help business owners and leaders move beyond simply looking at the numbers and start turning everyday business data into meaningful insights and action.
Together, we’ll explore how to:
• Identify the numbers that actually matter
• Spot patterns, opportunities, and challenges hiding in your existing data
• Ask better questions of your data—and use integrated AI tools to dig deeper
• Turn insights into more confident decisions around staffing, inventory, merchandising, promotions, and performance
For example: If Tuesday sales are consistently lower than other days, don't stop at the observation. Learn how to investigate why—and determine whether staffing, promotions, product mix, or customer behavior may be creating an opportunity.
Or use product-level sales and inventory data to identify underperforming items, recognize emerging customer preferences, and make more informed decisions about what to purchase, promote, or merchandise.
Square will serve as the foundational POS system referenced throughout the workshop, providing a practical framework for exploring real-world data and reporting. The approach, however, is designed to be broadly applicable to virtually any POS, inventory management, reporting, or business intelligence system.
The goal isn't more data. It's better questions, sharper insights, and smarter action.
