NO GUESSING – BIG's Intelligent Merchandising inventory management services let you see what’s selling, what’s not, and why.  Anywhere. Anytime.  It’s a complete inventory analysis suite and merchandising tool that helps you understand—visually—how to find the best inventory mix—the one that will help you maximize market share, and most importantly, improve your profitability.  Intelligent Merchandising consists of Balance to Buy, The Buying Group, The BIG Virtual Showcase, Merchandising Boot Camp, and Plexus Performance Groups.

Balance to Buy™ can give you instant answers about where you are making money by vendor, category, and price point. And with those answers, you can:

• Make educated decisions--based on facts--about what to buy or reorder

• Re-merchandise aged inventory based on sales

• Find the “sweet spots” by vendor, category & price point & easily feed them

• Develop strategies to make the most of your existing inventory

Balance to Buy™ takes advantage of “cloud computing,” the latest internet-based technologies that allow businesses to use powerful applications “on-demand.” That means you can access our inventory analysis tools and your custom data from anywhere; no software to install on your computers, no need for software updates, and no need to be at your desk. All you need is a connection to the internet. And it’s the only data system available that distills your own POS data into a simple, visual, intelligent actionable format.  And it’s real-time, interactive, and very easy-to-use.
