CO-OPTICS: Powered by Retail Toolkit

Join The Bike Cooperative for valuable access to CO-OPTICS, the member-exclusive tool by Retail Toolkit that combines retail management with rich benchmarking data. It’s the ‘crystal ball’ you’ve always needed.

EXCLUSIVE CO-OP PROGRAM

Always Make the Smartest Decision for Your Store

Here’s a fact: 45% of the best bike shops in America use Retail Toolkit‘s best-in-class retail management tools. Many of these distinguished stores are also members of The Bike Cooperative. Coincidence? We don’t think so. That’s why we’ve partnered to offer IBD’s a best-in-class retail management tool that adds co-op benchmarking data directly to Retail Toolkit‘s intuitive interface. 

We’re not talking about a couple numbers to make you feel good, either. CO-OPTICS offers the gut-check you’ve been looking for with insight into how you’re really doing as a retailer sourced directly from realtime CO-OP data.

COMING SOON:  CO-OPTICS will be ready in September, 2019 – but you can still get started today with three special packages we have designed with Retail Toolkit.
