Ever wish a retail expert would walk into your stockroom, pull up your numbers, and just tell you exactly what to do?

Hi, I'm Catherine Erdly.

This week on the Resilient Retail Game Plan, I’m tearing down the myths and fears behind a stock audit and showing why getting your inventory under control is the most powerful move a product-based business owner can make.

After 25 years in retail, I’ve seen it all: wasted cash in stagnant shelves, business owners drowning in data but starving for answers.

So I created Stock Doctor — a done-for-you service that cuts through overwhelm with actionable clarity.
