Know which products
are truly working.

Revenue is one number. Profit by product is quite another. We track your stock and cost of goods so you can see, clearly and simply, which lines are worth growing — and which ones are quietly costing you more than they return.

What this delivers

True margins, not just top-line revenue

When you know your cost of goods for each product — including storage, shipping, and any fulfilment fees — you can finally see your actual margin, not just the revenue figure that looks good on a dashboard. That difference matters enormously when you're deciding where to invest next.

Our inventory tracking service organizes this in a format that's straightforward to read, even if accounting isn't something you enjoy. The goal is useful information, presented clearly — not spreadsheets that require a manual to understand.

Margin by product

See which lines actually contribute once costs are factored in.

Stock movement tracked

Units in, units out, and what's left — recorded consistently each period.

Costs properly allocated

Purchase cost, fulfilment, and storage mapped to each SKU accurately.

Simple reports to read

Written in plain language, without requiring an accounting background to interpret.

A common situation

Growing stores often outpace their visibility

Revenue looks fine, but profit is unclear

Sales figures can give a misleading sense of how well things are going. Until you factor in the cost of each unit sold, plus the fees and fulfilment costs attached to it, you don't really know what you kept.

Inventory records drift out of sync

When you're busy shipping orders and restocking, keeping a clean record of what you have, what it cost, and what's been sold can slip down the priority list. Over time, the gaps become harder to reconcile.

Decisions get made on incomplete information

Without accurate cost-of-goods data, it's hard to know whether expanding a product line makes sense, or whether the margin on a best-seller is actually thin enough to be a concern. Good decisions need good numbers underneath them.

How we approach it

A consistent record-keeping process built around your products

We start by establishing a clear cost basis for each SKU — what it costs you to acquire or produce it, plus the fulfilment and storage charges that apply to it. From there, we track movement each month: units sold, units returned, units currently held, and any write-offs or adjustments.

This gives you an accurate cost-of-goods-sold figure each period, which feeds into your broader financial picture. It also makes it possible to compare margins across product lines in a way that's meaningful rather than approximate.

We present this in reports that are organized clearly — by product category, by channel, or by period — depending on what's most useful to you.

What we track for each SKU

Purchase cost per unit

What you paid to acquire or manufacture the item.

Fulfilment and shipping costs

FBA fees, third-party logistics costs, and postage allocated per unit.

Units sold vs. returned vs. held

Monthly movement tracked so your on-hand stock remains accurate.

Gross margin per product

Revenue minus all direct costs — a reliable profit figure per SKU.

Write-offs and adjustments

Damaged, lost, or discarded stock recorded clearly so nothing is hidden.

Working together

A steady process that keeps your records current

We work with what you have. You don't need an inventory system already in place — we'll help establish a workable process from wherever you're starting.

01

We review your product range

We look at what you sell, how it's priced, and what costs are currently attached to each line.

02

We establish your cost basis

Each SKU gets a properly built cost figure — purchase price plus applicable direct costs — so margins are calculated consistently.

03

We update records monthly

Stock movement, new purchases, and cost changes are recorded each period so your ledger stays current without effort on your end.

04

You receive a readable report

Margin by product, stock on hand, and cost-of-goods-sold for the period — presented in plain language you can act on.

Investment

One monthly figure, no surprises

The price covers your full product range — no per-SKU charges or tiered limits.

How progress is measured

Clarity builds over time

In the first month, we focus on establishing a solid foundation — getting your cost basis right for every active product and setting up a consistent tracking structure. This is the most detailed phase, and it ensures everything that follows is built on accurate figures.

From the second month onward, the process becomes a steady rhythm: data comes in, records are updated, reports go out. Over several months, you start to see patterns — which products are consistently strong, where margins have tightened, and where there may be room to improve.

Month 1

Foundation

Cost basis established for all active SKUs. Initial stock count reconciled. Tracking structure agreed and documented.

Month 2–3

Rhythm

Monthly update process runs smoothly. First margin comparisons across product lines become visible. Any cost anomalies are flagged.

Ongoing

Insight

Trends emerge. Decision-making is supported by accurate, current data. Your accountant has reliable COGS figures to work with.

Our commitment

We'd rather you feel confident before we begin

We spend time at the start understanding your product range and your existing records — however organized or disorganized they currently are. If after that conversation you're not sure this is the right service for your situation, there's no pressure to proceed. We think the fit should be clear to both of us before any work begins.

We start where you are

No need for a tidy inventory system already in place. We work with what exists and build from there.

Reports are always explained

If a figure looks unexpected or you want to understand how it was calculated, we'll walk you through it.

No lock-in commitment

We work on a rolling monthly basis. You stay because it's valuable, not because you signed a long-term contract.

We'll let you know how we'd set up a tracking process for your situation and whether this service would give you the clarity you're looking for.

Products, platforms, and your current cost visibility — whatever you can share.
