Published Last updated Written and reviewed by the Resale Intelligence team
An opportunity card listing models your shop sells quickly but has almost run out of, so you can buy more within Safe Buy and turn your cash faster.
- Plans:
- Available on Intelligence and up
- Who can do this:
- Owner, Store Admin, Manager, Appraiser, Accountant, Supervisor-Approver, Cashier (role defaults; the owner can change them)
Store Intelligence points out opportunities as well as risks. The "fast-selling models running low" card shows models your shop has sold quickly in the recent period but now has almost none of. These are the models worth looking to buy more of, because the money comes back quickly.
How the system picks models
The system looks at your own shop's real sales in the recent period and picks models that pass all three checks:
-
sold more than once in that period;
-
a median Days-to-Sell shorter than the system's limit;
-
almost nothing left in the shop (ready to sell, listed, or waiting for inspection).
The fastest-selling models come first. If you are working in one branch, the system looks at that branch only.
Who sees it and where
-
The card carries the Opportunity label and reveals no cost, so everyone who can open Store Intelligence sees it.
-
On the Overview, this card sits in the Opportunity section, which is shown to members with View valuations; cards appear in that section only when the plan includes Store Intelligence.
-
If no model qualifies, the opportunity section says No new opportunities yet — suggestions appear as more sales data comes in. The same message always shows on plans without Store Intelligence, even when the shop has plenty of sales data.
-
This finding is not sent as a notification; you need to open the screen to see it.
How to use this card
-
Look at the models in the list at the bottom of the card.
-
Tap Value a purchase to open Valuation, then choose the model and spec.
-
Check the Safe Buy, the price range and the confidence before you set a buying price or advertise that you are buying.
-
Buy at no more than Safe Buy so the profit your shop requires is still there.
The valuation screen is available on plans with valuation (Starter and up) and needs View valuations. Read more in Check Safe Buy before you buy.
Good to know
Selling fast in the past does not mean selling fast forever. Prices and demand change when a new model launches or the season changes. The system uses only your shop's data, so it reflects your own customers, not the whole national market. See every model in the Model performance & Days-to-Sell report.
