Marking and Clearing Dead Stock in a Mobile Shop
In a mobile shop, dead stock means handsets, accessories or spare parts that haven't sold within your chosen day limit and are quietly blocking working capital. Once Phoneo marks an item as dead stock, you can see exactly which IMEI-tracked phones and SKUs are stuck, decide a clearance price, and push them out before their market value drops further. Setting a realistic day limit (20, 30 or 60 days) keeps your shelves moving and your cash flowing instead of sitting in slow-moving inventory.
Why dead stock tracking matters
- Frees up working capital locked in unsold phones and accessories.
- Stops fast-depreciating handsets from losing more resale value.
- Highlights slow models so you reorder smarter next time.
- Makes it easy to plan offers, combos and clearance sales.
- Keeps IMEI-wise stock data clean and audit-ready.
