Podcast Feature: Managing Stock Like a Pro with Majury Merchandising

As heard on The Product Creators Podcast with Vicki Weinberg

When Vicki invited me onto her podcast to talk all things stock, strategy and small business retail, I jumped at the chance. We covered a lot — from cash flow and pricing through to dealing with slow-sellers and planning ahead with confidence.

If you’re an independent product brand juggling too many hats and struggling to keep your stock and sales in sync, this one’s for you.

What We Covered

Why pricing should be based on value, not just margins
Too many brands use flat margin formulas that don’t reflect what their customer is actually willing to pay — or what the product is really worth. I shared why pricing by market, channel, and product type is a smarter, more sustainable approach.

How to deal with stock that’s just not shifting
Hint: hoping it’ll sell next month isn’t a strategy. I gave actionable ideas on how to move through old stock without diluting your brand — including subtle promotions, smart bundling, and quick website changes that can make a big impact.

The underrated power of a sales forecast
A good forecast isn’t just a spreadsheet — it’s your roadmap for managing stock levels, cash flow and planning ahead with less stress. We also touched on how marketing calendars and sales phasing should feed into your buying plan.

Key metrics small brands often overlook
From weeks cover to sell-through, I broke down the core merchandising numbers every product business should track — and how to use them to make clearer, faster decisions.

Why scaling brands need to think differently
What got you to this stage won’t get you to the next. I shared my view on why founders can’t (and shouldn’t) do it all — and why bringing in the right expertise can free you up to grow.

My #1 Tip for Managing Stock & Cash Flow

“Always ask yourself why. Why is something selling — or not? Let that question lead your data analysis. Then build your plan from there.”
