Inventory is one of the trickiest moving parts in any beauty business. Products are small, fast-moving, and high in variety—serums, masks, ampoules, lash tools, hair dyes, retail sets—and each has a different turnover speed. Without a clear routine, stock records drift, reorders lag, and cash flow tightens.
Here’s a simple weekly routine that helps beauty SMEs track inventory accurately, spot issues early, and stay profitable—all without adding more admin load.
Choose one fixed day each week (e.g. every Monday morning) to capture stock levels across all outlets.
You don’t need a full count—just a snapshot of fast-moving and high-value items, such as:
With ccMonet, your staff can upload photos or delivery notes directly from mobile. AI reads the supplier invoice and automatically updates expense records—creating a clean audit trail for stock usage and purchases.

Your goal isn’t to micromanage—it’s to make clarity automatic.
When every outlet logs bills, captures receipts, and follows the same routine, HQ gets real-time visibility without extra chasing.
Fast-moving inventory doesn’t have to mean messy records.
By combining a short weekly check with AI bookkeeping, beauty SMEs can maintain control, reduce wastage, and keep branches aligned effortlessly.
