Podcasts about Inventory

In this episode of Five Minute Friday, we're answering another frequently asked question from retailers and small business owners: How much inventory should I really have on hand? It's one of the biggest challenges boutique owners face—and getting it wrong can tie up your cash flow, leave you with dead stock, or cost you sales when you don't have enough on the floor. In this episode, Sarah from The Boutique Hub breaks down the science of buying inventory using an Open to Buy Plan, so you can stop guessing and start investing wisely.

This Flashback Friday and 10th episode is from Creating Wealth 410, published last September 8, 2014. Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler is a doctor of psychology with over 45 years of pioneering brain/mind research experience. In addition to teaching mind power methods in universities and corporations, she was invited by former President Jimmy Carter to support his Special Commission on Women in Business, was invited to serve as a Pentagon consultant focused on business communications, and has authored over 30 books and hundreds of articles in both business and individual success categories. Unlike other personal development approaches, her focus is on refining brain/mind power to create more successful action. Instead of presenting strategies that never work in the real-world, you'll get genuine science-based information that can be immediately implemented. Learn more by scrolling down the page to check out Dr. Jill's books, audio books, and other materials. In her books, audio books and programs, Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler provides insights and action plans for every area of your life: from higher states of awareness to personal achievement ... from instant stress management to healthy longevity ... from enhanced mental performance to mind/brain enhancement. Getting more satisfaction in life does not necessarily result from taking the latest personal growth program. True, this set your feet on a more productive path. BUT...true lasting success only happens when you commit to direct your thoughts and actions every day. In other words, your daily mental habits and resulting actions are what help you create the life and business conditions you want. When not writing or teaching, Dr. Jill enjoys artistic pursuits, gardening and being out-of-doors, good conversation, home and garden design, and kayaking and skiing.     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

In this episode of The Fleet Success Show, Josh Turley (CEO, RTA) and fleet veteran Nathan Schafer dive deep into the not-so-sexy—but absolutely critical—topic of vehicle inventory. If you've ever assumed that what's in your fleet maintenance management software matches what's on your lot… think again. From rogue departments buying vehicles under the radar to liabilities that could land you in legal hot water, this episode breaks down why accurate, hands-on inventory is non-negotiable. Nathan shares real stories from public sector and construction fleet life, including equipment that literally vanished and a catastrophic fire that made insurance records the only thing standing between chaos and coverage. You'll also get practical advice on how to conduct a modern vehicle inventory using today's tools—plus why photos, odometer updates, and walkarounds could save you millions (or your job). ✅ Key Takeaways Inventory isn't optional—it's a legal, financial, and operational necessity. What's not in your FMIS can hurt you. Assets missing from your fleet maintenance software = massive liability. Photos are proof. Capture and attach them to records to avoid insurance nightmares. Rogue departments = rogue liabilities. Centralized oversight is critical. Annual walkarounds uncover the truth. From ghost assets to forgotten equipment, nothing beats boots on the ground. Digital tools like RTA Fleet360's mobile app simplify the process with photo capture, odometer updates, and record linking. Speaker Bios Josh Turley, CEO of RTA: The Fleet Success Company. With two decades of experience supporting fleets, Josh is passionate about helping fleet managers lead with intention and build cultures of excellence. He's a vocal advocate for using data and modern fleet management systems to drive measurable success. Nathan Schafer, Fleet management expert with 25+ years in both public sector and private construction fleets. At RTA, he supports implementation, training, and product design. Known for his hands-on approach and deep operational knowledge, Nathan's stories always come with a lesson (and sometimes a laugh). #FleetMaintenance #FleetManagement #FleetSuccess #VehicleInventory #FleetSafety #FleetCompliance #FleetMaintenanceSoftware #FleetManagementSoftware #GovernmentFleet #RTAFleet #AssetManagement #FleetLiability

He first details an upcoming Phoenix event that will introduce attendees to methods for extracting home equity without affecting existing low-interest mortgages or incurring new monthly payments, and reveal a novel property investment type offering high monthly income relative to purchase price. Subsequently, he transitions to a scathing exposé of Marco Santorelli, a former competitor accused of defrauding investors of $62.5 million through a Ponzi scheme involving bogus promissory notes, with Jason using official government and news sources to highlight the severity of the charges and the devastating impact on victims. Jason then joins Gene Morris of Rebel Capitalist.  He asserts that the market is currently experiencing minimal distress, despite ongoing debates about a housing deficit, which he estimates at 4.5 million homes. He argues that housing inventory remains exceptionally low when adjusted for population growth, comparing current levels to those of the 1990s and 2017 but with a significantly larger population. Jason critiques the S&P 500's real returns, claiming they are almost nonexistent when adjusted for inflation, which he believes is understated by the CPI. He advocates for real estate as a superior investment strategy due to its ability to leverage debt, with tenants covering costs and offering substantial returns, far outpacing inflation, especially in a "ludicrous mode" scenario of 15% appreciation. Jason concludes that real estate prices are unlikely to crash without a significant number of distressed homeowners and that even a slight decrease in mortgage rates could unlock millions of new buyers, further exacerbating the existing supply-demand imbalance. #HousingMarket #RealEstate #HousingDeficit #InventoryLevels #HousingAffordability #MortgageRates #PropertyAppreciation #IncomeProperty #LeverageInvesting #CashOnCashReturn #BeatInflation #StockMarketVsRealEstate #S&P500 #CPIUnderstated #RealVsNominal #FinancialEngineering #MarketDistress #RebelCapitalist #Doomers #InvestmentStrategy #DemandSupply #UnmetDemand #NewBuyers #RentalMarket #HousingShortage #LongTermInvesting #AssetClass #ShelterIsNecessary   Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 1:33 Sign up for the Jason Hartman University Event this coming September https://www.jasonhartman.com/Phoenix 2:02 A couple of big announcements 7:47 4 reasons to join the JHU event 9:37 Sponsor: https://www.monetary-metals.com/Hartman 10:09 The Marco Santarelli scandal Jason's interview with Gene Morris 15:45 Update on Housing inventory  17:23 S & P 500 versus Inflated Adjusted Returns 18:47 Power of leverage 20:59 September ICE mortgage monitor and delinquencies 21:54 An asteroid hitting the US, Consumer expectations and financial engineering     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Every HVAC, plumbing, and electrical business hits the same wall: material costs balloon, trucks run short, and cash flow becomes unpredictable. In this episode of Can't Stop the Growth, Chad Peterman sits down with Dave Wigder, co-founder of Ply, to explore how contractors can take control of their inventory and purchasing to unlock massive growth. Dave shares how Ply was built to give contractors visibility into their warehouses, trucks, and purchasing, while eliminating dead stock, wasted billable hours, and costly supply runs. He also explains how AI and supplier integrations are changing the future of materials management. If you're leading a service business and want to stop losing money due to inefficiency, this conversation will provide you with the playbook to scale smarter. Additional Resources: Dave on LinkedIn Learn more about Ply Join The ARENA - a CSTG Community (powered by our media partner, PeopleForward Network) Chad on LinkedIn Chad Peterman | CEO | Author Peterman Brothers Website Follow PeopleForward Network on LinkedIn Learn more about PeopleForward Network Key Takeaways: Materials Eat Profits – For many contractors, 20–35% of revenue goes to materials, yet most lack visibility or control over that spend. Data Beats Gut Decisions – Centralizing purchasing and inventory data allows contractors to be proactive, avoid last-minute supply runs, and unlock supplier discounts. Dead Stock Is a Hidden Tax – Unused parts in trucks and warehouses quietly erode cash flow. Ply's system helps uncover and eliminate it. Billable Hours Are Gold – Every supply house run can cost six figures annually across multiple techs. Smarter inventory keeps techs in the field. AI Is the Future of the Trades – From voice-driven field requests to automated replenishment, AI is reshaping how contractors manage their operations.

Canada has long lived off its mythology: a country of opportunity, stability, and growth. But 2025 is stripping away that veneer. For the first time in a generation, the country is experiencing a profound reversal of the very forces that powered its ascent — population, jobs, and GDP — and nowhere are the consequences clearer than in the housing market.Last year, more than 106,000 Canadians left the country — the largest exodus since the late 1960s. At the same time, Ontario and B.C., the twin engines of the national economy, have registered record-low population growth, a stark reversal for regions once defined by relentless inflows. This hollowing-out of the demographic base isn't just a number; it's the erosion of demand, the shrinking of ambition, and the quiet departure of the very people meant to sustain the future.The labour market tells a similar story of unraveling. Toronto's unemployment rate has breached 9% for the first time in 15 years. Construction jobs — the bedrock of Canada's housing-dependent economy — are vanishing by the tens of thousands. The irony is suffocating: even as cranes dot skylines, the hands that once built Canada's growth are being sidelined. EI claims are surging, unemployment benefits ballooning, and yet the only jobs being created are in government. Housing — once Canada's great safety blanket — now exposes the fragility. Toronto just suffered its worst July for new home sales in more than 40 years. Inventory has ballooned to nearly 60 months' supply. Sales volumes are lower than at any point in modern history, plunging beneath the brutal downturns of the 1990s. And in a historical first, more Canadians are signing leases than purchase agreements. Renting has become not just an economic choice, but an existential one: a sign that ownership, the foundation of middle-class identity, has slipped out of reach.Vancouver, long sheltered by its global allure, is not immune. September numbers reveal prices sliding for a fifth straight month, down to levels last seen in early 2023. Detached homes, once the city's crown jewel, are now weighed down by foreclosures, while days on market stretch longer with each passing month. Inventory sits well above the 10-year average, foreshadowing further declines.Meanwhile, the broader economy has hit an iceberg. GDP shrank in the second quarter, with exports collapsing nearly 8% and business investment plummeting. Machinery spending, non-residential construction, the very lifeblood of productivity, is bleeding out. What keeps the economy afloat? Government spending and consumer credit. Households dip into savings to buy cars, Ottawa borrows to mask deficits, and capital flees anything resembling long-term growth. The illusion of stability is preserved only through debt.The housing correction now unfolding is one of the sharpest on record. Real home prices are down 24% since 2022 — faster than the infamous crashes of the '80s and '90s. Affordability remains shattered, even as values fall, because incomes refuse to keep pace. What once felt like a bubble slowly deflating is beginning to look like a collapse.The story of 2025 is not just about numbers on a chart. It is about a country forced to reckon with its limits, its illusions, and its future. And the question hanging over it all: is Canada prepared for what comes after the myth of endless growth? _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

A couple turns a rent hike into a homeownership strategy, navigating relocation, pregnancy, and smart financial planning to land a 1923 farmhouse in Maryland.Chris and Niki's journey from Manhattan renters to first-time homeowners shows how strategy, timing, and teamwork can overcome the high costs of living in expensive markets. After learning their $2,900 Manhattan rent was set to jump to $3,800, they began planning to redirect that money into equity. A relocation to Silver Spring, Maryland, brought lower rent and proximity to work, but it was Niki's pregnancy that accelerated their timeline. With $300,000 saved, they split funds between a $150,000 down payment and $150,000 for renovations, ultimately purchasing a 1923 farmhouse for $675,000—$100,000 below asking. Smart lease planning, family carpentry help, and a unicorn real estate team made the process smoother and more affordable.“Get a unicorn team, rely on them, ask questions. They will point you in the right direction.” - ChrisHighlightsHow a rent jump from $2,900 to $3,800 sparked a rent replacement strategy.Why the perfect home doesn't exist—and how to prioritize what matters most.The benefits of open houses for clarifying wants versus needs.What it's like to accelerate homebuying while expecting a baby.How $300,000 in savings was split between down payment and renovations.A unique negotiation strategy that reduced the final purchase price by $100,000.The role family expertise played in making an older home purchase feasible.Why a unicorn team was key to their success.Referenced Episodes350 - From ‘Years Away' to Homeowner: Your Last Lease Ever382 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 1: Rates383 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 2: Sales, Inventory & Affordability384 - 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift Pt 3: Rent Math & Buying PowerConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

In the final part of the 2025 Market Shift Update, David Sidoni breaks down why affordability is finally improving — and why old affordability formulas don't tell the full story. Discover how falling rates and shifting rent dynamics create opportunities for first-time buyers.For five years, first-time buyers have faced brutal affordability math. Home prices skyrocketed from $315,000 in 2020 to $438,000 in 2025, far outpacing normal appreciation. But the tide is finally turning. In this episode, David Sidoni explains how flattening home prices and falling mortgage rates are reshaping the affordability index in buyers' favor.More importantly, David reveals the fatal flaw in traditional affordability formulas: they ignore rent. Rent is your biggest monthly output — and it's rising no matter what. When you factor in rent replacement, buying often makes more financial sense than continuing to rent. David shows how to use this perspective to assess your readiness and why waiting for “perfect” affordability is a losing strategy.Packed with myth-busting insights, this episode equips buyers with the clarity and tactics needed to move forward in today's shifting market.“Buying a home is not a want purchase — it's a necessity purchase. You're paying for shelter either way.”HighlightsWhy affordability has been so brutal since 2020How today's interest rate drop makes homes more affordable, even at higher pricesThe flawed formula economists use to measure affordabilityWhy factoring in rent changes the entire equationTactical steps first-time buyers can use in today's market shiftReferenced Episodes382 - Part 1: Rates383 - Part 2: Sales, Inventory & Affordability279 - New Build vs Resale Houses for First Time Homebuyers350 - From ‘Years Away' to Homeowner: Your Last Lease Ever355 - Real Answers Pt 4 – Should I Rent or Buy in 2025?168 - Get Off Your Ass!Websitewww.getoffyourass.orgConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

Part two of this special series dives into three critical pieces of the 2025 housing market shift: home sales, inventory, and affordability. David Sidoni breaks down the numbers, explains why headlines can be misleading, and shows how today's changes open up new opportunities for first-time buyers.The 2025 housing market is in the middle of a transformation unlike anything seen in decades. In part two of this three-part series, David Sidoni unpacks the latest on home sales, shifting inventory, and affordability. He shares how existing home sales have dropped to just over 4 million in recent years, but new data and falling mortgage rates are signaling a move back toward healthier levels. Headlines might scream contradictions — sluggish sales one day, rising applications the next — but that's exactly why staying educated matters. Inventory is building, builders are offering incentives, and affordability is showing signs of life. For first-time buyers, understanding these shifts is the key to beating the rush and securing a home before competition heats back up.Quote: “If you take advantage of this shift now, you can beat the bum rush of a bazillion other buyers.”Highlights:Existing home sales data from 2019–2025 and what it means for first-time buyersWhy headlines about sales and applications seem contradictoryThe role of new construction and builder incentives in boosting supplyHow declining mortgage rates are already improving affordabilityActionable insights on how to prepare for the next market phaseReferenced Episodes:Part 1 of this 2025 Crucial Housing Market Shift series (home prices & mortgage rates)355 - Real Answers Pt 4: Should I Rent or Buy in 2025?Sources:Zillow, Redfin, Goldman Sachs, Housing Wire, Ris Media, US News, Bloomberg, The National Association of REALTORS®, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Zelman & Associates, Brian Buffini and other housing economists, The Mortgage Bankers Association, U.S. Census Bureau, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, financial Samurai, Moody's, Inman, US News, Apollo Global, Wells Fargo, and the National Association of Home Builders.Connect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

The duo's humor, heart, and authenticity earned them a national audience — and a new role for Grace at GM.Bill Cariss keeps Holman Growth Ventures in the fast lane, securing a minority stake in FM Capital's $240M fund to scale automotive and mobility tech investments. “We are still going to do direct investments...but they are not going to be near the size of the funds that we will own with partners,” he said.Teddy Morse has taken Ed Morse Automotive from 12 stores to over 50 with cowboy boots, Harley-Davidsons, and a deeply personal leadership style. “You can lose the fact that there's a romantic side to this business,” Morse said. “To what we do to help people get their first car; to help people get their dream car.”Whether it's Grace's storytelling, Bill's venture savvy, or Teddy's boots-on-the-ground heart, these All-Stars prove that auto leadership is anything but average.A new player in the inventory sourcing space is making waves as sellmyride brings on a stacked roster of industry veterans. Unlike traditional lead-gen platforms, sellmyride is focused on helping dealers consistently source inventory from private sellers — a move designed to keep vehicles in local markets and out of national players' hands.Chip Perry, founding CEO of Autotrader and former TrueCar chief, has joined sellmyride as chairman, calling it the best dealer-to-public acquisition tool he's seen in 25 years.Steve Greenfield's Automotive Ventures is backing the company as part of a broader raise to support U.S. expansion.Robbie Bezdek, a Cox and iHeartMedia alum, brings marketplace and media expertise to help dealers acquire 50+ units per month from the public.The platform is designed to be “always on,” dealership-branded, and built for consistent private-party sourcing rather than ad hoc lead chasing.“Why shouldn't our clients capture those cars?” Perry said. “That's what we hope, that's what we dream about and that's what we're inspired to do.”A new survey from Omnisend shows just how deeply generative AI has embedded itself in e-commerce habits.

Inventory and materials management may not sound glamorous, but for us—and for any thriving shop—it's the difference between healthy cashflow and a financial chokehold. In this Machine Shop MBA conversation, we break down how smart inventory practices—both physical and digital—can free up space, cut costs, and improve delivery performance. From raw materials and finished goods to WIP and cutting tools, we share the financial, operational, and workflow implications of what you keep on the shelf (and what you shouldn't). You'll hear real-world examples of vendor-managed material programs, strategies for keeping traceability without burying yourself in admin work, and ways we've turned “dead” stock into real cash. We also dig into why inventory accuracy matters beyond just making parts—touching on tax implications, property valuations, and how inventory missteps can kill the value of your business in a sale. And if you've ever lost hours hunting for the right cutter or fixture, our storage and tracking advice might change the way you think about tooling forever. This episode isn't about counting nuts and bolts—it's about building an inventory strategy that supports your cashflow, your team's efficiency, and your long-term profitability.
