SMART ORDER RECOMMENDATIONS ALLOW TRUE BOTANICALS TO SPEND MORE TIME ON SUPPLY CHAIN STRATEGY

March 26, 2021

True Botanicals was founded by Hillary Peterson in 2014. After being diagnosed with thyroid cancer at the age of 32, Hillary came to understand the troubling connection between one’s self-care products and their health impacts. Disheartened by the lack of ingredient regulation in the beauty industry, Hillary pivoted careers, helping build a local Bay Area skincare brand that prioritized thoughtfully researching the health and environment sustainability of their products.

With a storefront integration, True Botanicals was able to actualize sales daily in Fuse. This allowed the operations team to generate a forecast, at any time, with up-to-date sales trends and seasonality. By eliminating the need for constant manual updates in Excel, True Botanicals was able to focus on making more strategic forecast adjustments using Fuse’s events forecasting module.

March 26, 2021

Margaux is dedicated to quality and customer experience above all else.

Margaux wanted to make sure that each and every customer that came to the site could get the exact product in the exact size she wanted. This dedication to quality resulted in overstocking lower volume SKUs, tying up tens of thousands of dollars of capital. Without additional visibility into the data, it was a tough challenge to avoid. With Fuse, Margaux can now easily see their sales data, inventory levels, open POs and place their inventory buys with confidence.
