Case Study: a leading outdoor-focused big box retailer boosts sales with StrataVision labor optimization

Labor Optimization for an Outdoor Retailer

A leading outdoor-focused big box retailer was struggling with an ineffective labor optimization model that relied on outdated historical sales data. The retailer needed a solution that would account for each store's unique attributes and shopper traffic to improve customer service and revenue. They partnered with StrataVision to address this challenge using its retail analytics service.

StrataVision developed a data-driven solution involving tailored peer groups for each store and weekly labor allocations based on forecasted traffic. This strategy provided the retailer with targeted benchmarks and staffing recommendations. The results were significant, including a 1.8% increase in overall sales, a 0.2% rise in conversion rates, and a $2.32 boost in average transaction size, all driven by StrataVision's optimization.
