Did you know the global Ecommerce B2B industry is already worth an estimated $7.7 trillion? That’s more than double the size of the direct-to-consumer market! Even more impressive, this figure is projected to grow by 18% annually until 2030. So, if you’re not already selling B2B, now is a great time to add it to the mix – but you’ll need to take care.
When trading inventory in large quantities, precise volume forecasting becomes essential. How and where you purchase your inventory, where you stock it, and how you track it across all storage locations are crucial elements to master if you want to make adding B2B as simple and profitable as possible.
You’ll also need to be flexible in which orders are included in your forecast. After all, not every B2B order is the same; some will be large and sporadic, while others might be similar and more like DTC orders.
