This is directed more towards owners of companies, but is open to shop owners as well...
I was just wondering how you guys keep track of
merch you sell, or if you do at all. How important do you think it is to keep a record or sales? |

Quickbooks Point of Sale keeps track of all of that stuff for me.
And yes, I think it is important. |

What I'm doing now is assigning every product an item number. Then I did an inventory sheet in Excel which basically lists each individual product and its corresponding item number. Then I just check it off when it gets sold.
I also have reciepts for all "official" shop and retailer sales. I suppose thats what those programs do, yes? |
