I hope you recall that last month we sent out a newsletter to all NSSRA members announcing our new partnership with SportsOneSource that will enable us to access critically important data about what is selling in our snow sports industry.

 

Let me give you a brief re-cap. 

 

SportsOneSource is a leader in the field of data capture and analysis and has been producing timely POS trending data for the related product categories dating back to 1998. SportsOneSource receives weekly data from your POS system and then combines it with data from many other stores to create the very important aggregated trending data that is so valuable for retailers and suppliers in the decision-making process.

 

SportsOneSource receives the data on Sunday night and then makes that data available to us on Wednesday in many forms -- by brand, category, color, size etc. This process is totally anonymous because your info is immediately aggregated with other reporting stores.

 

This is a hugely important step that NSSRA has taken. This will enable you to study data and trends in a very timely fashion and make buying decisions based on accurate and current information.

 

I just signed up our stores; it's easy. Just call 303-997-7302, and the people at SportsOneSource will walk you through it. It doesn't cost anything, and as a participating member you will have unlimited access to all the aggregate data - Free.

 

This is important -- for you and for our industry.  We can all make better decisions by being part of this program.
