Retail POS Performance sounds like a pretty
straight-forward parameter to quantify. In most cases,
analysts simply report the basic information; that is,
comparable timeframe POS comparisons. However,
simply looking at the macroscopic view of Retail POS 
can lead to some serious oversights.

Trend Results drills down to store level on all of our
analyses to seek out information that is not available
at the corporate level. By analyzing store level POS,
we can see weekly demand and sellthru rates that
could justify a forecast analysis at store level.

Furthermore, a comprehensive POS analysis should
also consist of the less desirable end of POS: customer
returns and lost sales. By considering returns, our Clients
are provided with a more accurate demand level for an
item, essentially Net POS. By considering Lost POS
Opportunities, we can demonstrate to our Clients the
need for a healthy supply chain and POS forecast.

Trend Results does much more than provide POS totals
for given timeframes. Our Clients have realized a multitude
of benefits from this information, including increased
Buyer orders.
