How do I keep inventory and pricing in sync between my D2C site and offline stores?
Once you have both an online store and physical retail points, disconnected systems are how you end up overselling online what's already sold in-store, or running conflicting prices that annoy retail partners, a unified retail OMS/POS like Shopify POS or Ginesys is built for exactly this omnichannel sync. Centralise pricing and promotion logic in one place with documented exceptions per channel, rather than letting each channel improvise its own discounting. Treat this as infrastructure to set up before you scale offline, not something to patch together after you already have five stores and a support backlog.
