자가 평가 체크리스트
Inventory & Supply Chain
- ☐Is your inventory tracked in real-time across all sales channels?
- ☐Do you have at least 12 months of historical sales data linked to specific SKUs?
- ☐Can your current POS or ERP system export data via an API?
- ☐Do you currently track supplier lead times and delivery accuracy digitally?
You have a single source of truth for stock levels that updates automatically when a sale is made anywhere.
Stock takes involve manual spreadsheets and 'gut feeling' is the primary driver for reordering.
Customer Experience & Support
- ☐Are more than 30% of your customer queries regarding 'Where is my order' (WISMO)?
- ☐Do you have a documented knowledge base or FAQ for your products?
- ☐Is your customer support handled through a centralized helpdesk like Gorgias or Zendesk?
- ☐Do you capture customer feedback or reviews in a structured, digital format?
Your support history is digitized, categorized, and searchable, making it perfect training ground for an AI agent.
Customer queries are buried in a shared Gmail inbox with no tagging or resolution tracking.
Marketing & Creative Production
- ☐Do you have a structured database of product attributes (material, color, fit, etc.)?
- ☐Does your team spend more than 5 hours a week writing product descriptions or social captions?
- ☐Do you have a clear brand voice guideline that can be documented for an LLM?
- ☐Are you running personalized email campaigns based on purchase behavior?
Your product data is clean and descriptive, allowing AI to generate high-converting copy instantly.
Product descriptions are often copy-pasted from manufacturers or are missing entirely for newer lines.
Data & Personalization
- ☐Can you identify if a customer shopping in-store has previously bought from you online?
- ☐Do you collect first-party data (emails, preferences) at the point of sale?
- ☐Are your sales reports updated daily without manual intervention?
- ☐Do you track 'basket abandonment' and the specific products left behind?
You have a unified customer profile that merges offline and online purchase history.
Your online store and physical shop operate as two separate businesses with no shared data.
점수 향상을 위한 빠른 개선점
- ⚡Deploy a 'Where is my order' AI agent using tools like Gorgias to deflect up to 40% of support tickets.
- ⚡Use Shopify Magic or Copy.ai to automate bulk product descriptions based on your existing SKU attributes.
- ⚡Implement basic AI-driven cross-selling on your checkout page (e.g., 'Frequently Bought Together').
일반적인 장애물
- 🚧Siloed data where e-commerce and physical store systems are not integrated.
- 🚧Lack of clean, structured product data (missing tags, attributes, or categories).
- 🚧Legacy hardware and POS systems that lack API connectivity or modern export features.
- 🚧Internal resistance from staff who fear AI will replace the 'human touch' of retail.
Penny의 견해
Retailers often get distracted by 'shiny object' AI like virtual mirrors or robotic floor assistants. My advice? Ignore the theater. In retail, AI wins in the boring places: inventory forecasting, churn prediction, and support automation. If you can't tell me exactly how many units of a specific SKU you have across your entire estate right now, you aren't ready for advanced AI. Fix your data plumbing first. The real divide I see is between retailers who own their customer data and those who rely on third-party platforms. If you're a £5M brand and you don't have a unified view of your customer, you're effectively flying blind while your competitors are using AI to predict what their customers want before they even know it themselves. Start with the data you already have, clean it up, and use AI to stop doing the repetitive tasks that keep your team from actually selling.
