Customer Testimonials 

Wireless Connection

“As Inventory Manager for Wireless Connection, a Verizon Indirect Agent Company, I have more than a full time job. The Tessco VMI team helps our company maintain stock levels on phone accessories and analyzes selling by SKU by door. Their recommendations carry much weight with me whether it is to increase target quantities or to stop replenishment on slowing items. An added bonus is that they are also pleasant and patient in all matters relating to our stock, supply, flow and stock balancing. We have a short conference call every other Tuesday to go over anything pertaining to our business. They are prepared with recommendations which can save me hours of research. I have yet to disagree with any of their recommendations.  Business is tough these days so it is imperative that we capitalize on every sale. The Tessco ARS/VMI Team has delivered everything that was promised regarding this service. My thanks to them.”

“I love our Tessco managed inventory through VMI. Our product is always current, our walls are full, and our accessory sales are up! The stock balancing has virtually eliminated our write-offs, and Tessco does a fantastic job of putting together the perfect team to meet our specific needs as a customer.  They’re both reactive and proactive with changes as needed, and move quickly and accurately to adjust our program to keep our sales at the maximum.  Thanks so much for all of your work and your dedication to helping our business run better.”

Red Skye Wireless

“Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) has been a huge success for Red Skye in allowing us to spend less time running reports and creating PO’s manually.  Everything is automated weekly and ships directly to the stores.  This process alone would take days to complete. Our time can be used focusing on sales and new products. VMI keeps track of each locations weekly sales and populates a Purchase Order for only the inventory needed.  This also eliminates the need of ordering large quantities of accessories to one location and distributing. This means less labor on our end.  VMI also allows us to Stock Balance any inventory that is not sold in 90 days.  This keeps us from writing off thousands of dollars at the end of the year.  Any inventory that was purchased in the last 90 can be sent back to Tessco.  This keeps our stores clean from dead stock.”
