🌅 See the Numbers Before You Open

Run the shop from one place, including the second and third one. These prompts build the working parts of a retail business: stock that is right across every location, purchase orders that arrive before you run out, gift cards and loyalty, staff rotas, and the numbers you should see every morning.

See the Numbers Before You Open

Copy

I get sent reports I never read. Build me one morning dashboard for my shops. Show yesterday's takings by location compared with the same day last week and the same day last year, since my trade is seasonal. Show transaction count and average basket. Show everything below reorder point by location, and anything that has not sold in ninety days. Show who is rostered today and highlight any shift with nobody assigned. Show gift card liability and any voucher expiring this week. Keep it to a single screen that I can read on my phone before I open. Add an AI agent that writes me a three line summary each morning saying what is worth my attention today and what needs a decision, rather than restating the numbers. Automate the scheduled summary to arrive at seven each morning, and an immediate alert if any location took materially less than expected. Two logins: a shop manager who sees only their own location, and an owner who sees all of them.

See the Numbers Before You Open

One morning screen with takings against last year, low stock by location, rota gaps, and a three-line written summary.

// the spark catches · intelligence awakens · the answer unfolds

Owners drown in reports and read none of them. This is one screen answering the four questions you have before the doors open.

What's Included

  • Yesterday against last week and against the same day last year.
  • What is below reorder point right now, by location.
  • Who is on today and any gap in the rota.
  • An assistant that writes the morning summary in three lines.

How To Use

  1. Keep it to one screen. A second screen means nobody reads either.
  2. Compare to the same day last year, not to yesterday. Retail is seasonal.
  3. Put the decisions on it, not just the numbers.
  4. Read it at the same time every day so a change stands out.

Drill into the stock side with multi-store inventory, and the money side with analytics prompts.
