Marketsmith Inc.

​Marketsmith Inc., one of the nation's leading woman-owned, data-science-driven marketing agencies, announced the introduction of its most recent retail-focused marketing technology product: Merchandise Intelligence.

The launch follows the company’s recent introduction of its dynamic Retail Intelligence product, originally designed for manufacturers and specialty retailers to optimize and predict in-store performance. Merchandise Intelligence takes it one step further, drilling down to the shelf and SKU level, allowing retailers to optimize their in-store portfolio and product lines.

“Now, our retail clients have a true view on profitability that factors in margins, returns, order cancellations and other crucial metrics to help them make informed decisions to drive bottom-line performance,” explains Marketsmith CEO and founder Monica C. Smith. “Our Marketing Intelligence platform leverages decades of experience in using data science to drive successful retail merchandising strategies.”

Marketing Intelligence is an AI-powered platform that delivers a detailed, comprehensive view of product lines to support critical business decision making. It delivers quick, actionable insight on product margins, trending and performance at both the category and SKU levels and gives retailers insight into areas of challenge through an easy-to-use scorecard that provides broad organizational visibility.

Merchandise Intelligence is the company’s latest technology product innovation this year, with additional products slated to debut this fall.
