Boston Proper Boosts Turnover 5% and Cut Buy Cycles by 30% with Toolio
Boston Proper is a 30-year-old women’s apparel brand, now operating as an online-only business with about $90M in annual revenue. The brand serves women 40+ who want bold, vibrant collections that let them stand out and express confidence.
For most of its history, Boston Proper operated on a catalog-first business model, planning assortments one drop at a time with little visibility beyond that season’s launch. Without a holistic view of the business, teams worked in siloed spreadsheets, making it difficult to track performance, align on financial targets, or adapt quickly when trends or supply chain realities shifted. Once plans were set, they often went untouched, leaving missed opportunities to chase winning products or mitigate underperformers.
As part of a larger digital transformation, Boston Proper needed a planning tool that could modernize their processes, improve collaboration across teams, and replace the “set it and forget it” cycle with agile, data-driven decision-making.
“We needed a tool that was more holistic and flexible, that could help us forge our own path instead of just repeating history. Toolio gave us that, and it’s already changed the way we work.” — Chad, VP of Merch Planning, Boston Proper

How Needed Increased Gross Margin Through Optimized Inventory Planning
Needed is a leading nutrition brand specializing in scientifically-backed supplements designed for long-term health and wellness. Operating primarily as a subscription-based business, Needed’s success depends on precise inventory forecasting, effective cost management, and seamless collaboration between planning, finance, and marketing teams.
Before implementing Toolio, Needed’s inventory and financial planning were largely managed through Excel, making it difficult to track margins, analyze cost trends, and quickly answer leadership questions about profitability shifts.
Since adopting Toolio, Needed has achieved a significant increase in gross margins. By leveraging Toolio’s real-time SKU-level insights and scenario planning capabilities, the team can now quickly identify cost fluctuations, optimize procurement strategies, and ensure that every inventory decision supports margin improvement.
