As a retailer, it’s important to keep a steady supply of great products that meet the needs of your customers. Knowing what local shoppers want to buy — when they want to buy — and keeping your shelves up to date with relevant and competitive products can be a lot of work.
While sales data, supplier trends and knowledge of your customers can help guide stock decisions, seeing real-time demand from Google search insights can be a great addition in curating the right products for your shop.
