Traditional retail merchandising is one of the most ineffective and waste-generating business processes. It involves using pen and paper to perform merchandising activities such as surveys and audits at geographically disperse points-of-sale, so not only does it produce an enormous amount of trash, but it also contributes to air pollution.

With mobile technology comes the environmentally-friendly solution to this scenario: Retail merchandising software.

Brand and category managers can create custom forms to be filled out at the point-of-sales and capture photos and signatures in addition to the usual text, number and selection answers. This not only saves paper while improving accuracy, but also eliminates data transcription.
