Marketing - Marketing / Market Research / supply chain inventory management
English term or phrase: leaving money on the table
When you deal in retail, nothing is more important than the moment of transaction. This may seem simple, but companies who lose sight of this principle for even a minute will be eclipsed by another company who didn't. This key fundamental should be the premise for all supply chain inventory management decisions your company makes. All of your processes should be driven by the ability to facilitate the exchange of product for money. This means removing any obstacles that can slow (or potentially) stop this from happening. In a proactive sense, however, global supply chain management tools that allow your company the ability to address event management on multiple fronts maximizes profitability by increasing supply where marketing and other promotions are pushing demand. This level of coordination is absolutely necessary in today's fiercely competitive global market. If you have doubts in your current supply chain inventory management systems to achieve these goals, you are probably leaving money on the table right now.

è giunta l'ora di fare degli investimenti


Explanation:
Secondo me, il fatto di lasciare i soldi sul tavolo vuol dire che non vengono investiti quando invece dovrebbero esserlo. In questo caso specifico, "se hai dubbi nel tuo attuale sistema di gestione... è giunta l'ora di investire per migliorarlo", o qualcosa del genere.

lasciarsi sfuggire un'opportunità


Explanation:
Secondo me, in questo contesto, l'espressione ha il significato di: "perdere l'attimo, lasciarsi sfuggire l'opportunità".
