Podcasts about Inventory

What if your biggest customer experience problem isn't your marketing… but your inventory spreadsheet? In the era of one-click checkouts, Prime delivery expectations, and endless online channels, brands are pouring millions into customer acquisition—only to lose customers post-purchase. Why? Because they can't deliver what they just sold. Today's guest says the future of e-commerce success doesn't lie in a flashier storefront or a new influencer strategy—it lies in mastering the messy, invisible world of inventory.

Sharon Goepferich from Cool Air Products joins the podcast to discuss cutting-edge capacitor technology and innovative HVAC solutions in an introduction to the Sigma capacitor. Sharon brings a decade of industry experience, having worked extensively with capacitors and HVAC components while traveling across the country to educate technicians and contractors. The conversation begins with a comprehensive breakdown of capacitor failures, addressing common misconceptions in the field. While manufacturing quality certainly plays a role in capacitor longevity, environmental factors like high temperatures and voltage disruptions—particularly common in markets like Florida with frequent lightning strikes—are primary contributors to failure. A crucial point emphasized is that failing capacitors typically cause compressor and motor failures, not the other way around. Many technicians incorrectly assume that a capacitor reading within tolerance is acceptable, but Bryan and Sharon clarify that even a degraded capacitor operating at reduced capacity can cause motors to run hotter and fail prematurely. This highlights the importance of proactive capacitor maintenance and replacement before complete failure occurs. The episode's centerpiece is the discussion of the innovative Sigma capacitor system, which Sharon describes as being "designed on an airplane over whiskey." This modular pod system addresses a longstanding challenge for HVAC technicians: the impossibility of stocking every capacitor size on their trucks. The Sigma capacitor uses a stackable approach where technicians build the exact capacitance they need in the field using standardized components. The system operates on a simple rule: build the higher values first (typically compressor capacitance on top), then stack the lower values (fan capacitance) underneath. This approach maximizes truck inventory efficiency while minimizing the number of SKUs contractors need to manage, representing a middle ground between carrying extensive individual capacitor inventory and using traditional universal capacitors. Cool Air Products extends beyond capacitors with their Combat P Trap system, an all-in-one condensate drain management solution that combines a shutoff valve, cleaning tab reservoir, and P-trap in a single unit. This product reflects the company's mission to solve everyday contractor problems in cost-effective ways. What makes Cool Air Products unique is their business model of helping industry insiders bring innovative ideas to market, providing support for patent processes, manufacturing connections, and funding. The Combat P Trap also demonstrates the company's commitment to giving back, as a portion of proceeds supports veterans—fitting since the product was designed by a veteran and serves an industry with significant veteran participation.

A real estate license isn't just for selling homes. It's a whole launchpad…if you know how to use it right.  If you're a great agent, you're doing way more than unlocking doors and writing offers.  You've got skills that can help you stand out and stack your income.

This lecture, the first in a series on secured transactions, focuses on the nature and creation of security interests under Article 9 of the U.C.C. It defines a secured transaction as a credit arrangement where a debtor grants a creditor an interest in personal property or fixtures as collateral to secure an obligation. The discussion outlines how Article 9 defines a security interest, identifies the parties involved, categorizes the types of property that can serve as collateral (including goods, intangibles and semi-intangibles), and explains the three essential elements for attachment (creation) of a security interest: value, debtor's rights in collateral, and a sufficient security agreement. Key concepts like after-acquired property, future advances, and proceeds are also examined, along with common issues in creating security interests and the policy goals of Article 9.A secured creditor has a property interest in specific collateral that they can proceed against to satisfy the obligation, giving them a significant advantage over unsecured creditors who only have a contractual claim.Article 9 governs security interests in personal property and fixtures.The four subdivisions of goods are Consumer goods, Inventory, Equipment, and Farm products.The three essential elements for attachment are: the secured party must give value, the debtor must have rights in the collateral (or the power to transfer rights), and there must be a security agreement that satisfies the statute of frauds (usually an authenticated record).The U.C.C. requires the collateral description to be reasonably identifiable.An after-acquired property clause allows a security interest to cover property acquired by the debtor after the security agreement is executed; it is especially common in inventory and accounts receivable financing.Future advances refer to securing future loans or advances under the same security agreement; U.C.C. Section 9-204 explicitly authorizes this arrangement.A secured party's interest generally continues in the proceeds when the collateral is sold or otherwise disposed of, as long as the proceeds are identifiable.For certain types of collateral like negotiable instruments, the secured party can perfect its interest simply by taking possession of the collateral (a pledge).One common pitfall is the improper description of collateral in the security agreement; the case of In re Bollinger Corporation was referenced as an illustration of an insufficiently specific description.

In this episode of the Used Car Dealer Podcast, Zach talks with Kevin Roberts, Director of Economic & Market Intelligence at CarGurus, to decode today's whiplash market—from March's tariff shock to the spring surge in used-car supply. marries first-party shopper data with macro-economics, why dealers shifted from clearing aged units to stocking up, and what rising interest rates and affordability crunches mean for pricing strategy. The conversation digs into EV and hybrid demand curves, the pitfalls and upside of used-EV retailing, and the “COVID playbook” tactics dealers can dust off to stay nimble when policy and consumer sentiment swing week-to-week. Whether you're wrestling with inventory turn, scouting low-price cars for budget-strapped buyers, or debating how tariffs will reshape new-versus-used dynamics, Kevin's data-driven insights deliver a roadmap for 2025 and beyond.Kevin's data is based on the following CarGurus report - https://dealers.cargurus.com/drc/cargurus-intelligence-report-april-2025Below are the main questions Zach asks Kevin, along with timestamps:00:29 Q) Can you give a brief overview of your background, your role at CarGurus, and what a Director of Economic & Market Intelligence actually does?02:11 Q) Over your career, how have you seen the auto industry's use of data evolve?03:55 Q) How does the market intelligence your team produces translate into concrete strategies for dealers?05:04 Q) Used-vehicle inventory just hit a three-year high—what's driving the rebound in supply?07:52 Q) We're seeing used-car prices rise; is that mostly buyers racing ahead of potential tariffs, or are other forces at play?09:48 Q) Today, what dollar range truly counts as a “low-price” vehicle in the used market?10:38 Q) Average days-on-market are trending down—what's causing cars to sell faster?12:10 Q) Right now, would you call it a seller's market or is power shifting back toward buyers?14:53 Q) What trends are you seeing in shopper interest for used EVs, and what factors matter most to those buyers?16:57 Q) Beyond Tesla, how are non-Tesla EVs performing in the used market?19:38 Q) From a dealer's perspective, what are the biggest challenges in retailing used EVs today?22:00 Q) Now that the early-April tariff rush has passed, what lingering impacts do you expect on new- and used-car pricing?24:36 Q) What practical guidance is CarGurus giving dealers to navigate this volatility?26:27 Q) Looking ahead, what key trends or potential market shifts should dealers watch through 2025?28:34 Q) What's your outlook for the used-car and EV segments as we move toward 2025 and beyond?29:54 Q) Where can dealers find CarGurus' latest intelligence reports?Listen to more episodes here: https://www.sellyautomotive.com/podcastRead the full transcription: https://blog.sellyautomotive.com/blog/kevin-roberts-cargurus-2025

As retailers gear up for the critical back-to-school and holiday seasons, new tariffs on Chinese imports—some as high as 145%—are causing significant disruptions in global supply chains. In this episode of Talk Retail to Me, Parker Avery's CEO, Clay Parnell, is joined by the firm's Chief Consulting Officer, Amanda Astrologo, and industry thought leader Walt Holbrook to discuss the current chaos driven by tariffs and how retailers can respond effectively. While recent reports indicate a sharp decline in shipments from China and soaring freight costs, the true challenge runs deeper: retail organizations must move from reactive tactics to integrated, end-to-end strategic thinking. Key Takeaways 1. There's no single fix—retailers need a coordinated, cross-functional response Amanda emphasizes the importance of aligning demand forecasting, pricing, allocation, and inventory strategies. “It's not just about pulling inventory forward,” she notes. “Retailers need to be thinking holistically—how product flows, where it lands, and how pricing strategies evolve with consumer sentiment.” 2. Agility isn't just a buzzword—it's a necessity. Walt shares how flexible retailers are renegotiating with vendors and adapting plans in real-time. “We can't rely on playbooks anymore,” he warns. “This is mission impossible without strong leadership and fast decision-making.” 3. Foundational capabilities matter now more than ever. The trio discusses how inadequate tools and reliance on manual planning are slowing down responses. Amanda highlights a renewed focus on core capabilities like merchandise financial planning and data visibility. “You can't execute pricing strategies or pivot on inventory if your teams are stuck in Excel spreadsheets,” she says. 4. This isn't just another short-term disruption. Comparisons to COVID are valid, but this time, consumer demand hasn't evaporated. “People want to shop,” Amanda notes. “But they don't want to pay 145% more.” That distinction changes the game and requires nuanced planning, inventory, and pricing strategies to protect both margin and customer loyalty. 5. Culture and creativity are competitive advantages. Both guests emphasize the need for a cultural shift inside retail organizations. Store teams must be empowered, and merchants encouraged to explore new sourcing strategies, domestic partnerships, and flexible assortments. “This is also a moment of opportunity,” Walt reminds us.   Final Thoughts This episode of Talk Retail to Me presents a candid, practical discussion on how retailers can move beyond reactive tactics and build long-term resilience. Whether it's scenario planning, realigning supply chain operations, or investing in foundational tools, the message is clear: speed, creativity, and flexibility are no longer optional—they're crucial for survival and future growth.   Host and Guests Clay Parnell, CEO, The Parker Avery Group https://parkeravery.com/clay-parnell/   Amanda Astrologo, Chief Consulting Officer, The Parker Avery Group https://parkeravery.com/amanda-astrologo/   Walt Holbrook, YODA Retail Consulting https://www.linkedin.com/in/waltholbrook/   Related Content & Resources Video Replay on YouTube https://youtu.be/kalorQerjmk   Blog Post | Supply Chain Resilience in the Face of Disruption https://parkeravery.com/supply-chain-resilience-in-the-face-of-disruption/   Blog Post | Rethinking Allocation and Replenishment to Drive Better Inventory Outcomes https://parkeravery.com/rethinking-allocation-and-replenishment-to-drive-better-inventory-outcomes/   Talk Retail to Me Podcast | Strategic Sourcing Considerations for a Disrupted Supply Chain https://parkeravery.com/strategic-sourcing-in-a-disrupted-supply-chain/   Parker Avery Retail Consulting Services https://parkeravery.com/retail-consulting/

Hello and welcome back to our monthly breakdown of Halifax's real estate stats!May 2025 was BUSY!! Recorded a new all time high sales price, an eye watering $636,592!! (which is up from $614,548 in April 2025)Here's the interesting thing though. If you've been following real estate at all over the past 5 years, I'm sure you've heard the following phrase. "it's a supply problem, not enough homes and too many buyers."Well, in May 2025 Halifax recorded it's highest level of inventory since February 2020, that's right, BEFORE COVID!!2.8 Months of Inventory. In May 2025, Halifax recorded it's highest level of units for sale since June 2020, that's right 5 YEARS AGO!1156 units for sale.To put this into context. The lowest level of months of inventory was 0.3 months, and the lowst level of units for sale recorded was 183 total units. Both of those were in February 2022, which most people consider to be the peak of Halifax's worst real estate market in recorded history. So we are getting units BACK. But prices are going up?What gives?Jason Paul902-220-7357jason@infinityrealestategroup.ca@jasonpaulhalifaxrealtor902-22To

GET THE 3 RESOURCES LACY MENTIONS by signing up for our free Substack at http://thoughtfulmoney.substack.com/It's an especially confusing time for investors.On one hand, the US economy is showing signs of slowing, with a negative growth for Q1 GDP, and mounting evidence that many corporations and consumer households are feeling the pinch of higher borrowing costs.On the other hand, FOMO Is returning to the stock market as corporate earnings look solid, tariffs tensions ease somewhat, and optimism over the longer term likely positive impact the Trump Adminstration's business-friendly policies will have on the economy.So, which is more warranted here: optimism or pessimism?For perspective, we have the great fortune today to sit down with one of the greatest living economists, Lacy Hunt, former senior economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and current Executive Vice President of Hoisington Investment Management Company.Lacy sees Wall Street as dangerously deluded here.

A full breakdown of how Padsplit's room-by-room rental model can turn a single-family home into a 7–9 bedroom income machine, generating $2K–$2.5K/month in net cash flow—even at Arizona's current median home price. Key property criteria for successful co-living investments: C to C+ neighborhoods, non-HOA, corner lots, close to public transportation and job centers—plus how to legally structure rentals to navigate density and zoning rules. Why Padsplit's tech-driven platform is “Airbnb for affordable housing,” offering furnished rooms with no credit checks for renters, while handling payments, tenant screening, and conflict mitigation for investors. Insights into how investors are scaling fast, converting underperforming Airbnbs and even building multifamily Padsplits—like one project converting 24 duplexes into 96 cash-flowing bedrooms projected to gross $90K/month.

What are you holding on to that just doesn't fit anymore? In this episode, I take you inside a real moment from my life—a full-on spring cleaning of my closet that turned into something way bigger. As I started tossing out old clothes, I realized I've been hanging on to things that no longer serve me—beliefs, habits, even dreams that don't fit who I am today. This episode isn't just about getting rid of stuff; it's about clearing space in your life so you can breathe, grow, and step into your next season with clarity and intention. We're talking about more than just clothes. I challenge you to look at your relationships, your routines, even your regrets. Some of these things have just been “in your closet” so long, you forgot to ask if they still fit. Maybe they did once, maybe they helped you survive or succeed—but they're not meant to come with you now. And on the flip side, there might be something beautiful you've forgotten that still fits just right. You just couldn't see it through the clutter. This is your invitation to get ruthless, get honest, and start fresh. I'll walk you through how to audit your life—what to keep, what to toss, and what might just need a little tailoring. I even share a personal revelation I had about something I've carried for decades—“hurry”—and why I've finally decided to let it go. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just disconnected, this might be the message you've been waiting for. Your next level is waiting—it just needs room. Key Takeaways: How to identify what in your life no longer fits—relationships, beliefs, habits, even goals Why holding on to old emotions and regrets robs you of your peace A simple framework: Keep, toss, or tailor—what belongs in your next season? The surprising power of physical decluttering to reveal internal clutter Ed's personal realization about letting go of “hurry” to embrace peace and presence You deserve a life where everything in your closet fits, flatters, or feels like you. If it costs you your peace, it's too expensive. Period. End of story. God bless you. Max out.
