(This is the part that gets the opens.)\n[ your take… ]\n———\nHere is a real one you can run this week 👇\nPer Retail Dive, Target upgraded its myDay employee operations app with a customizable home screen and upcoming AI-backed insights, designed to help store teams manage inventory and shelf operations more efficiently.\nHere's the cool part — the lever almost everyone misses (and you don't have to): if you place SKUs in Target stores, the new myDay AI layer means store staff will see shelf performance data you currently only see in monthly reports. Request a Target supplier meeting to understand the new AI insights. Ask specifically what data is surfaced to store teams about your category. If shrink or out-of-stock visibility is now visible daily, your supply chain timeliness becomes a competitive factor against other brands in your aisle.\nWhat that means for you: This reads like an operational efficiency play, but it's a competitive intelligence shift. Target is now arming store employees with real-time shelf data. If your SKU is a weekly out-of-stock, that's now visible to the staffer today, not in a regional report next month. The brands that tighten their supply chain first—shorter lead times to restock, better demand forecasting—will own the shelf visibility game. If you're already in Target, call your account rep and ask what the myDay AI actually surfaces. Then adjust your inventory cadence to match.\nIf you make, sell, or gift anything with your name on it — this is yours to run. You can do this.\n(Real, not theory — Retail Dive: https://www.retaildive.com/news/target-upgrades-store-operations-app-employees/832989/.)\n———\nOr — want it built FOR you?
