Fierce your timing is perfect in this video. Your demo of the Inventora inventory management software is awesome. I hate math and felt defeated in creating a spreadsheet to track my sewing supplies. I believe this is what I've been looking for. Thank you for sharing.

OMG! I have spent hours looking for inventory management that would do this. Seen countless websites and spreadsheet templates but they all looked super confusing and not very intuitive (and I usually *love* spreadsheets!). This video popped up in the suggestions column when I was looking at yet another spreadsheet video... this looks PERFECT for me and will help immensely in my new jewelry business because I was definitely going bonkers trying to find a solution that would work AND not cost a ton of money! Thanks so much, I have subsribed to your channel because I loved this so much

What about thread? I mean per product might be a next to nothing cost, like the rivets, but thread does cost money... I wonder if you can do like a "default" use per product, like "miscellaneous" and give it a default value that you add for every item. I mean like for each bag you add 0,5 cents for those costs that you wouldnt take into consideration (rivets, thread, sewing machine usage, electricity, etc). The idea behind it is that you have a stock of something (thread) that decreases in time because it is incorporated in the product and it is a cost that you have for your business. Or maybe you account for these costs when you "price" your time? I love your channel and your sense of humour! Greetings from Sweden. P.S. I dont have a bag making business, I just sew as a hobby but I work with accounting and I love the idea of Inventora! 😁 I might give it a try for my private stash just for fun 😁
@fiercekittenz
@fiercekittenz Год назад
Thread CAN be expensive, depending on how you buy it. I buy it in HUGE spools, so calculating thread cost wouldn't work for me. I also don't really know how much I use with a typical bag. That might be a bit hard to figure out.

I've been looking for a program like this for years!!! It's so hard to find software that does complex/shared inventory. I have a clothing brand & do basically everything in house. So many companies, including WIX which I use, do not offer native inventory management for built/assembled products. I just signed up for the free plan of Inventora, but have zero hesitation to upgrade to the business plan with WIX integration if it does everything I need.

Question - using the Clematis as an example, the pattern calls for 12"x8" of faux leather/vinyl. What is the quantity that you would enter under Products?

I do square inches now - I have found it to be a LOT more accurate than saying I used a quarter yard, which I totally didn't.

@biobombshell8004
@biobombshell8004 Год назад
Nice, thanks for the review and feature walkthrough. Questions I still have are - it seems like you still have to calculate how much of a yard you use by adding up individual pattern pieces right? And it doesn’t account for the fact that different yards are different lengths, so knowing how much of a yard you used becomes more math. Second question is related to Shopify integration. Is there any kind of customer interface that would allow our Shopify customers to see what materials we have available to create custom orders from? I often get asked to add some section to my website which shows what fabrics, vinyls, and hardware I have in stock to create custom items, would this be a solution to that problem?
@fiercekittenz
@fiercekittenz Год назад
Hey!!! So since this video, I switched to using square inches instead of by yard. I should do a follow up video to clarify this. For Shopify I haven’t looked into it, but I will as the Inventora team!

I order my custom vinyl from Xiamen Hsd Ribbon on Alibaba. I have ordered from them for 4 years now and they are really good! No MOQ, so I can order 1 yard or 100! hsdribbon.en.alibaba.com/ I am pretty sure they also offer waterproof canvas, but I haven't ordered that yet.

You don't have to use my affiliate link FWIW - It's mostly for tracking on their end. Try this out: inventora.com/pricing-plans/ - should see a "Get Started" button under the two plans. One is free, the other is not.
