Where the money went, last 90 days
The money side of pet collars and harnesses sellers is rarely as tidy as the accounting software assumes. Pet products split cleanly into two businesses. Consumables like food and litter bring people back every few weeks, which is the most valuable pattern in retail. Durables like beds and carriers sell once and then not again for years. Treating them as one business hides the fact that one of them is the actual engine.
Weight is the enemy. A sack of food costs very little to buy and a lot to ship, and if you are competing with a supermarket on price the postage is where your margin goes. Knowing shipping as a share of revenue is more important here than in almost any other category.
The upside is loyalty. Pet owners find a product their animal tolerates and stay with it. Repeat purchase rate in this category should be high, and if yours is not, that is the most valuable thing you could find out.

Where the money went
Upload a statement and Cashowa does the sorting. Free to start, no card needed.
Three situations that come up constantly in pet collars and harnesses.
Two very different margins and two very different repeat patterns. Categorising them apart stops one flattering the other.
Courier cost as a share of revenue on those lines. If it is above your margin, you are paying for the privilege of selling them, and the answer is either a price rise or a smaller pack size.
Repeat purchase rate tells you whether the consumables side is working. In pet supplies a weak repeat rate is usually a stock availability problem rather than a product one.
Switch between monthly, quarterly and yearly to see the pattern.
Steadier than most categories because animals eat all year. There is a lift at Christmas for accessories and treats, and a summer lift for outdoor and travel products.
Upload twelve months and the pattern stops being something you half remember. You can switch between monthly, quarterly and yearly, which matters when income arrives in lumps and a single month tells you very little.
Import your sales file and Cashowa works out profit per product, what is selling, and what has not moved in sixty days. Enter what each item costs you once and the margins stop being guesswork.
Add a lead time and it warns you before something runs out, rather than after.
