Your in luck. Here’s a real-time example of where ‘AI’ for inventory management could be applied to reduce frustration in the shopper journey.

Take your typical Social media browser… That’s me.

I see your typical product promotion in my feed.

Cool Shorts! My wife would not approve me owning another pair of surf shorts. I think I may go for it anyways…

One click and…

My size is not available. Oh well. Disappointed.

Here, again. A Social Product Promo in feed where I already express interest in a brand. Only to be led astray due to inventory fluctuations. Welcome AI… Let AI initiate a content swap or indicate when a Social Media ad with a product carousel should be updated or even have AI update it automatically so that when I do engage… I get to a product I can actually buy.

In the age of Hyper-Personalization, this clearly feels very generic. AI could be an effective way in capturing the sale that would of been lost.

Please tell me what you think?
