How to keep track of my inventory without any bar codes?

I have a small makeup stand in a salon and my makeup doesn't have any barcodes to keep track of, what is the best way to keep track of my inventory without over complicating it. Cause I have to think of color and type (ex cream concealer and liquid concealer, or duo powder and translucent powder… ) I know excel is the best way but i don't have a computer, only my iphone and i have to make sure no one takes anything since i'm not always there.

Lay out your goods so people can see them and when they take the last one you can see to reorder
Some people use racks or display stands to do this

You could complicate this by using a maximum and minimum stock holding system There are mathematical formula's for calculating these numbers and also re-ordering levels

Ask your supplier to help it is their interest that you sell more

Do it the old fashioned way---> By Hand. Do a daily report. Maybe even keep a list to check off when you sell an item. See if it matches the hand count. You should have 1 1/2 - 2 times of inventory on hand that you sell for that ordering period. I'm not sure that I would use a computer for such a small amount of inventory. Hope that helps out!

  • What is the best craft inventory system? I'm looking for an inventory system that will work to easily manage craft supplies. I'm not seeing a lot of products that are allowing me to use partial amounts, for example I purchased 6 ounces of brown wax dye and used 1 ml but the systems I see won't let me just use some of what I have. I would also love it if there were an associated iphone app… What are you guys using?
