Where stores lose money, and what Foreman does
The numbers are worked examples to show the shape of the leak, not results. Your own numbers come from your calendar and your phone log on the setup call.
"Do you have this" texts nobody answered
Example: A store that gets 15 stock questions a day across text, Instagram and Google and answers half of them is losing the other half to the next store or to online. At a $60 average sale, that is a few hundred dollars a day.
Foreman: Foreman answers from your Shopify, Square or Lightspeed inventory, holds the item under the customer's name and tells the floor.
Missed calls at the register
Example: Ringing phones at a busy counter go to voicemail, and the caller rarely leaves one.
Foreman: Foreman texts the caller back within a minute with hours, stock and a hold, and books a fitting or a pickup when it helps.
Special orders that went quiet
Example: Special orders arrive and nobody tells the customer for a week.
Foreman: Foreman confirms the order, texts the day it arrives and holds it for the window you set.
Customers you have not seen since spring
Example: Most stores have thousands of past customers in the POS and never text them.
Foreman: Foreman runs win-back and replenishment texts off your purchase history, within the limits you set, and brings them in with a real reason.

Questions store owners ask
