What on earth does this even mean? Do you know which items contribute the most to your gross margin? Do you know how changes in the selling price of those items might affect your margin? Margin analysis is looking at your recipe cost structure interfaced with your product mix sales data to determine how each product contributes in total to your gross margin. You may have a product with a 90% cost of sales, for example. But, if that product is in your bottom 10% of sellers, it doesn’t really matter what you price it. That alone is not going to move the needle on profitability. It’s important to know, but it’s not where your attention should be. We help you build a system that tells you where your attention should be based on what is bringing in the margin.
