A 30-, 60-, and 90-day review turns an eyewear opening order into a managed test. Each checkpoint should answer a different question rather than repeat the same inventory count.
30 days: is the setup functioning?
- Is the display visible and browseable?
- Are reader powers correctly organized?
- Which positions are already empty?
- Is staff maintaining the fixture?
- Are customers asking for missing items?
60 days: what demand pattern is emerging?
- Which styles and powers have reordered?
- What inventory has not moved?
- Are stockouts caused by demand or poor service?
- Does the category need a mix correction?
90 days: what should change?
- Should the store add or reduce capacity?
- Which inventory deserves more depth?
- Should placement change?
- Is the category producing enough contribution to continue?
- What is the next test?
Record one decision at every review
A review that produces no action is only reporting. Write down the change, owner, and next date so the category continues to improve.
