NEW SellerPulse Feature: Inventory KPI Benchmark Reports

Inventory KPI Benchmark Reports: Your New Secret Weapon for Protecting Amazon Profits

Running an Amazon business without tracking your key inventory metrics is like driving cross-country with no gas gauge… you might make it, but you’re probably going to end up stranded (and broke).

That’s why SellerPulse has dropped its latest game-changer: Inventory KPI Benchmark Reports. This powerful new feature helps you spot (and stop) the cash leaks hiding inside your inventory before they eat into your margins.

If SKU Economics Benchmark Reports showed you where your products are profitable, Inventory KPI Benchmark Reports now show you whether your inventory is helping or hurting those profits.

Why This Feature Exists: Because Your Inventory Is Your Cash

Most sellers obsess over sales numbers. But here’s the truth- revenue is vanity, margin and cash are survival.

Your profit per unit doesn’t mean much if your inventory is sitting in FBA collecting dust (and long-term storage fees). This feature ties SKU-level margin performance to inventory movement and capital efficiency, giving you a full profit picture in one place.

The 3 KPIs Every Amazon Seller Should Be Tracking

The Inventory KPI Benchmark module benchmarks, monitors, and helps you act on the three metrics that can make or break your cash flow:

1. Days of Supply (DoS)

Why it matters: Shows how long your inventory will last based on actual sales velocity your #1 indicator of capital efficiency.

Target Benchmark: 30–60 days

• Over 90 days? Cash trap.
• Under 20 days? Stockout risk.

Quick wins:

• Hold off on reorders for slow movers.
• Boost marketing for fast sellers running low.
• Reprice or liquidate excess stock.

2. Sell-Through Rate (90-Day)

Why it matters: Measures how quickly inventory sells, which affects your IPI score and reveals inventory health.

Target Benchmark: Greater than 3.0

• Under 2.0? Low efficiency, stale listings.

Quick wins:

• Bundle slow movers.
• Refresh product listings.
• Identify SKUs where demand and stock are mismatched.

3. Aged Inventory % (>90 Days)

Why it matters: Older stock means storage fees and tied-up capital, which is usually a sign of poor forecasting or low demand.

Target Benchmark: Less than 10% of total units.

Quick wins:

• Run clearance or liquidation promos.
• Stop restocking dead products.
• Investigate root causes (pricing, reviews, PPC).

From “Data Overload” to “Do This Next”

Unlike full inventory management systems that bury you in operational minutiae, the Inventory KPI Benchmark Reports are laser-focused on strategic insight.

Instead of endless spreadsheets, you get:

• Inventory KPI Benchmark Summary: 12-week performance trends vs. your chosen targets.
• SKUs to Watch: Your top 10 underperformers in DoS, Sell-Through, and Aged Inventory %.
• SKU Detail Reports: Actionable insights for each SKU, from aged stock risk to low inventory fee avoidance.
• Weekly Email Alerts: Your nudge to keep your profit habit alive.

Custom Benchmarks for Your Business

Every seller’s reality is different. That’s why benchmarks are fully adjustable. You can tailor them to your seasonality, niche, and margins. Whether you’re running fast-moving consumer goods or slower seasonal products, your targets can flex to fit.

Why Sellers Love It

This isn’t another “nice-to-have” dashboard. It’s a weekly habit loop for protecting your cash and margin. Sellers who make KPI reviews part of their routine can:

• Spot early warning signs before they become expensive mistakes.
• Reallocate marketing spend to the right SKUs.
• Improve IPI scores and avoid long-term storage fees.
