How to run your boutique & clothing business with TheCEOApp
TheCEOApp team ·
A boutique's stock isn't just "ten gowns". It's two in size 10 in black, one in size 14 in red, and a customer who paid half for the jumpsuit last week. That detail is exactly what notebooks lose.
TheCEOApp keeps each item by size and colour, and gives your boutique its own online shop.
Stock by size and colour
Add each style with its sizes and colours, and see what's left of each. When a size is running low, it shows on your restock list.
Sell online and on Status
Your boutique gets a shop page with your products and prices that customers order from. Make a promo picture of your shop or any item, sized for WhatsApp Status, Instagram or Facebook, in one tap.
Customers who pay in parts
Record part payments against the customer's name and send a polite reminder on WhatsApp for the balance.
Record every sale in seconds
Add what you sell once, for example ladies' gown, men's shirt and jeans, and services like alterations, home delivery and personal styling. Suggestions for a boutique & clothing come up as you type, so you don't start from a blank page.
Then record a sale by tapping the items, scanning a barcode or simply saying it out loud. The receipt goes to the customer on WhatsApp with your logo, and part payments are kept against their name.
Keep stock the way you count it
Count stock by piece, pair, yard, bundle and set. Start with the biggest unit you buy in, say how many smaller ones fit inside, set a price for each and sell in whichever unit the customer wants. Stock goes down as you sell, and you're warned before you run out. Each item can carry sizes and colours.
