Βασικά συμπεράσματα
- Below 40% - overstock risk, plan promotions or stop replenishing
- 40-80% - healthy, watch the trend
- Above 90% at full price - unmet demand, increase replenishment
What sell-through rate is
Sell-through rate measures how fast stock converts into sales: units sold in a period / units received (or available) × 100. An 80% monthly sell-through means 80% of available goods sold.
Why it matters to the board
Sell-through separates products that 'work' from those tying up shelf capital. Low sell-through signals dead stock and future markdowns; too-high sell-through at full price signals missed stockouts - sales lost for lack of stock.
How it's used
- Below 40% - overstock risk, plan promotions or stop replenishing
- 40-80% - healthy, watch the trend
- Above 90% at full price - unmet demand, increase replenishment
How CRMconnect helps
CRMconnect computes sell-through live per SKU × location and ties it to replenishment: it increases orders on fast movers and cuts slow ones, maximizing full-price sell-through.
Πραγματικό παράδειγμα
A multi-location retailer tracked sell-through monthly in Excel. With live SKU × store visibility, it moved slow stock before markdowns and grew full-price sell-through by 20%.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις
Sell-through vs inventory turns?+
Sell-through relates to goods received in a period; inventory turns measure how many times average stock cycles in a year. Both describe speed, from different angles.
What sell-through is 'good'?+
It depends on industry and season. Rule of thumb: high enough to avoid dead stock, but not so high you miss sales from stockouts.
