TL;DR Summary:

Hammoq doesn’t just tag items—it transforms your intake station into a smart pricing hub that drives margin from day one.

If you’ve ever walked into the backroom of a busy resale store, you’ve seen it:

📦 Piles of unprocessed donations
🧾 Staff manually checking brands and prices
⏱️ Delays from handwritten tags or outdated price charts
💸 Lost time = lost margin

Intake is where resale revenue should begin. But for many operators, it’s where momentum dies.

Hammoq changes that.

With one photo at intake, Hammoq launches a fully automated, AI-powered workflow:

• 🧠 Recognizes the item
  
  
• 🏷️ Assigns the right category and condition
  
  
• 📊 Recommends a store-specific price based on ASP and sell-through
  
  
• 🖨️ Pushes it to your tag printer—ready for the floor
  
  

Now, intake isn’t a bottleneck. It’s a margin-generating pricing engine.

🧠 Why Intake Bottlenecks Hurt Resale Performance

Intake is the heartbeat of your resale operation—but when it’s slowed by:

• Manual brand lookups
  
  
• Inconsistent staff training
  
  
• Static price charts
  
  
• Tagging errors
  
  
• Physical backlogs of inventory
  
  

…you lose both time and margin.

Even small delays compound fast:

• 1 staff member can manually price 100–150 items per shift
  
  
• AI-powered intake with Hammoq? 300–500+ items with higher accuracy
  
  
• That’s 2–5x the output, with smarter pricing baked in
  
  

The result?
More items priced correctly. Faster shelf replenishment. Higher ASP. Less markdown.

💡 The Hammoq Difference: Price-Backed Intake

Here’s how Hammoq flips the script on intake:

1. 📸 Staff snaps a photo of each item
   
   
2. 🧠 Hammoq identifies category, brand, gender, size, and condition
   
   
3. 📊 It pulls 30–365+ days of store-specific sales data
   
   
4. 🏷️ Suggests the best price based on sell-through + ASP
   
   
5. 🖨️ Pushes to your tag printer
   
   

Now, every single item enters the system with:

• The right attributes
  
  
• The right price
  
  
• A ready-to-sell tag
  
  

All without a pricing manager, chart, or spreadsheet.

✅ Key Takeaways:

• Turn donations/returns into revenue faster
  Intake time drops—floor time speeds up.
  
  
• Eliminate pricing backlog
  No more boxes sitting unprocessed for days (or weeks).
  
  
• Works with limited staff and growing volume
  Train anyone to intake using just a phone or tablet—and Hammoq handles the rest.
  
  

📉 The True Cost of Intake Delays

Let’s say your average item sells for $9.99, and your team processes 200 items per day manually.

With Hammoq:

• You process 400+ per day
  
  
• Improve ASP by $2–3 through smarter pricing
  
  
• That’s $800–1,200 in added sell-through potential per day
  
  
• Over 300 days, that’s $240,000–$360,000 in added revenue—per location
  
  

And you don’t have to hire more people or upgrade equipment.

Hammoq transforms time-consuming intake into high-output pricing.

🔁 Before & After Snapshot
