How Enhanced Retail Solutions Works
How We Work
Our hybrid business model provides an advantage because it enables our clients to simply subscribe to ERS, entitling them to pick up the phone and talk to our planning experts (consultants), and receive their Reports, Forecasts, Item Plans and Data Interpretation in whatever format and delivery method they prefer. Whether a client uses our tools on their own or we use it on their behalf and deliver the results they are covered.

Consulting and Software as a Solution
Our software business benefits greatly from our consulting business and vice versa. Consulting clients get the benefit of the results of sophisticated software tools without having to use it. Our software clients get 24/7 access to those tools. And both get the benefit of being able to talk to a consultant. This isn’t technical support – this is business support.
