Cigars POS Automated Markdown Candidate Flags

Every Monday, WebRun opens Cigars POS, finds cigar lines with weak recent sales and high days on hand, calculates sell-through and the cash tied up in each, ranks the slowest movers as markdown candidates in a Google Sheet, and sends a Telegram digest for an owner to decide on pricing.

In short

How do I automatically flag slow-moving cigars worth a markdown?

WebRun scans Cigars POS every Monday for cigar lines with weak sales and high days on hand, calculating sell-through and the cash tied up in each. It ranks the slowest movers as markdown candidates in a Google Sheet and sends a Telegram digest, so an owner can price down dead stock without changing any price automatically.

  • Dead stock gets marked down before it ties up cash all season
  • The owner sets every price, so margin stays under control
  • Slowest movers rank by tied-up value without a manual sell-through report

Questions, answered

Does it change prices automatically?

No. WebRun only ranks slow movers and suggests markdown room. It never changes a price in Cigars POS. The owner reviews the digest and sets any markdown themselves.

How does it decide a cigar is a slow mover?

It reads sales velocity and days on hand per line in Cigars POS, calculates sell-through, and flags lines with weak recent sales and high days on hand as candidates, ranked by the cash they tie up.

Will it suggest a discount that kills my margin?

No. WebRun shows the current price and the margin room available and suggests a markdown band within it, but leaves the final price blank so the owner keeps full control of margin.
