Managing merchandise inventory at festivals can be challenging. It's common for top-selling items to sell out near the end of a show, tour, festival, or even early on depending on in some cases. Once an item is sold out, potential sales are lost, leading to reduced revenue and disappointed fans who leave empty-handed (of those that didn't switch to buying something else still available).
atVenu's Ship to Home feature allows you to keep selling even when you run out of stock at the event. Here’s how it works:
1. Continue Selling Post-Sellout When a popular item sells out at the festival, fans can still place orders through atVenu’s POS system. Instead of walking away disappointed, they can purchase the item and have it shipped to their home after the event.
2. Seamless Integration The Ship to Home feature is a feature within atVenu's point of sale. This means that your staff can easily start taking ship to home orders on items you specify (if you only want specific items to be able to be shipped post event) and the fan can either enter their information at the time of purchase or they are sent a text to fill out their information from wherever they like so they aren't holding up the line and can continue with their day.
3. Expand Your Inventory Virtually By offering Ship to Home, you can virtually expand your inventory without needing to stock excessive quantities at the event. This reduces the risk of overstock and the logistical challenges of transporting large volumes of merchandise.
4. Capture Every Sale Ensuring that no sale is missed maximizes your revenue potential. Fans who might have left empty-handed can still purchase their desired items, boosting overall sales figures.
Benefits of atVenu's Ship to Home Feature
1. Maximized Sales Opportunities Continue selling high-demand items even after they sell out on-site. This feature ensures that every potential sale is captured, significantly increasing your merchandise revenue.
2. Enhanced Fan Experience Fans won’t have to leave disappointed when their favorite items are sold out. They can conveniently order what they want and have it delivered to their doorstep, enhancing their overall event experience. Your team will be able to export the fan order and shipping details to fulfill their orders at a later date.
3. Efficient Inventory Management Reduce the risk of overstocking and the logistical burden of transporting large inventories. With Ship to Home, you can maintain a leaner inventory on-site while still meeting demand.
4. Post-Event Sales Extend your sales window beyond the event itself. Fans who didn’t make a purchase at the festival can still order merchandise online, keeping the revenue stream flowing even after the event ends and you can have that inventory reflect your event to ensure all sales are accounted for.
