How It Works Pricing FAQ

November's boom. January's bust. Stop the cycle.

Seasonal retail businesses hemorrhage money in slow months. You know it's coming every year. So why does it still catch you off guard?

The Problem Nobody Solves

You've got sales data. You know that January will be quiet. You've even calculated what you need to survive it. But when it hits, you're left scrambling because your tools don't understand seasonal patterns.

What You're Doing Now

Planning
Spreadsheets updated once a year (November)
Real-time scenario modeling for every month
Staffing
Cut hours in January, hope staff stay
3-month staffing forecast with payroll impact
Cash reserve
Hold money in December, run dry in March
Month-by-month cash position with adjustment alerts
Decisions
React when things break
Act on 60-day forward visibility

Real Store, Real Problem

"Every January I'm sitting in an empty shop refreshing the POS, wondering if I'll make payroll. After using this, I knew six weeks in advance how many hours to cut and exactly when cash flow would tighten. That changed everything."
Sarah M. - Custom Framing Shop, Portland OR

Want Forecasting & Cash Flow for Seasonal Retail built out, or handed over?

This is not a purchase and there is no card field. It puts your address, this product, and whatever you write below in front of a person, and you get a written answer about what finishing it, or handing it over for you to run yourself, would actually take.

  • A person reads these. Expect a reply in days, not minutes.
  • Your address is used to answer you. No sequence, no list, no sharing.
  • Ask to be removed and you are removed.

Prefer the team to build it and run it for you? That is the operator partnership.
