Why use this plugin? Whether you produce your own products, drop-ship, or buy through wholesale, you want to track the profitability of your products and your store. To do this, you’ll need to manage the cost price of your products. These Cost Prices (sometimes referred to as ‘direct costs’) are called the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and we have integrated dedicated fields to manage these in your WooCommerce product pages. What is COGS and how does it help me? COGS is sometimes also referred to as ‘cost of sales’ or ‘cost of merchandise’ but in short it refers to the production or purchase costs for products sold in your store. Technically, these costs are an expense of your business, and in the end they reduce the revenue your store makes from selling. So far not a big deal, but once your business grows, it might get tricky to keep track of profitability all of your products. This plugin allows you to plan, simulate and summarise both your costs, stock value and margins in one place in the WooCommerce product pages so you get an instant overview of how your business is doing. For Merchants, By Merchants All of our plugins are developed for merchants, by merchants. With over 25 years of combined experience in merchandising and retail, we understand what it takes to run a business.
