Getting It Right The First Time:
Designing & Delivering Merchandise That Sells

June 9, 2010
Recorded Webinar

Frequently retailers use Private Label merchandise to highlight their “value message” and gross margin, increasing their product offering year on year. But this growth also has its challenges.

  • Product quality, with procedures and processes typically poor, even in the best of cases.
  • Dependable suppliers are hard to find, keep, and even harder to collaborate with.
  • Multiple, disconnected systems are being relied on to support private label processes.


So what are savvy retailers doing to design and deliver merchandise that sells?

View this recorded webinar featuring Retail Systems Research Managing Partner, Paula Rosenblum, to find out.  This informative webinar is based on the findings of the recent RSR Research benchmark survey "Getting It Right the First Time: Designing and Delivering Merchandise that Sells".
