How to Survive Inflation with Automated Price Control

Running a business in inflation mode

If you own a convenience store, small market, or hardware shop, you’ve probably felt it firsthand: prices are changing faster than you can update them.

Suppliers raise costs every few weeks, sometimes without notice, and you end up selling products at old prices.

You’re not alone—thousands of small business owners spend hours every week just trying to keep up.

The truth is, inflation can’t be stopped. But it can be managed—with automation and real-time information.

The invisible cost of price changes

In an inflationary market, the biggest risk isn’t that prices go up—it’s that you don’t notice when they do.

Let’s say your store sells a case of bottled water for $20, and your supplier charges $16—a 25% margin.

If your supplier increases the cost by 10% (to $17.60) and you don’t update your selling price, your margin drops to 12%.

That small change might not sound like much, but across hundreds of SKUs, it can quietly erase thousands of dollars in profit each month.

The reality: inflation eats into your margins faster than you can type in a spreadsheet.

Why manual control doesn’t work anymore

Most small business owners still rely on Excel sheets, QuickBooks entries, or handwritten notes to track supplier prices.

But with constant price updates, this approach is simply too slow.

A typical store receives 150–250 invoices per month.

If each one takes 3 to 5 minutes to review, that’s up to 20 hours every month spent just trying to catch up with price changes.

And those are your hours—the owner’s—the most expensive and hardest to replace.

The smarter alternative: automation powered by AI

Automation doesn’t eliminate inflation—but it helps you stay one step ahead of it.

With Remargen, you can automatically detect supplier price increases the moment they happen, all from WhatsApp.

Just forward your invoices (photo or PDF), and Remargen’s AI does the rest:

  • Reads and digitizes invoice data.
  • Extracts products, prices, and suppliers.
  • Compares current and previous costs.
  • Alerts you when prices or margins change.

Example:

“Remargen detected a 6% increase on Latex Paint 1 gal and an 8% increase on Sparkling Water 12-pack. Current margin: 17% (was 25%).”

That means no more guessing, no more missed updates, and no more selling at the wrong price.

From chaos to control

When your price control is automated, you can:

✅ Adjust your prices in time to protect margins.

✅ See supplier increases instantly.

✅ Spend less time managing data and more time serving customers.

✅ Avoid margin surprises at the end of the month.

✅ Make data-driven decisions, not emotional ones.

It’s not about avoiding inflation—it’s about managing it strategically.

Built for real businesses, not tech experts

Remargen is designed for small business owners who don’t have time to learn new systems.

It works directly from your phone and WhatsApp, with zero setup, no downloads, and no training.

You can’t control inflation, but you can control your response

Inflation is unpredictable—but your cost control doesn’t have to be.

With Remargen, you can track every price change automatically, keep your margins steady, and regain peace of mind.

Inflation isn’t going away.

But with automation, neither is your profit.
