One missed forecast. One overstocked SKU. One supplier delay.
How much risk is really accounted for in your retail business strategy?
In this episode of The Buyerside Chat, we’re chatting about how to mitigate risk in your product-based business.
Whether you’re focused on DTC, wholesale, or a mix of both, the reality is: things still feel shaky right now. Costs are creeping up, tariffs are shifting, and consumer (and retailer) spending is cautious. And while you can’t control the economy, you can take a page from the corporate retail playbook to protect your biz (and your profits) from outside chaos.
In this episode, I’ll walk you through how retail buyers manage risk, what to actually look at when making strategic calls in your business, and how to avoid being the brand with a warehouse full of inventory and zero cash to show for it.

This is not your average workshop. You’ll get my personal planning spreadsheet (used with 1:1 clients + in my own product biz) and step-by-step videos to walk you through goal setting, inventory planning, and profitability forecasting. A game-changer if you're ready to lead like a buyer.
