The Full NetSuite Ecosystem

One Platform. One Data Model.

One Firm That Knows All of It

This is the point of NetSuite, and the reason we build on it rather than assembling best-of-breed tools joined by hope. Every capability below shares one item master, one customer record and one ledger, so adding the next one is a configuration decision rather than another integration project.

Nobody licenses all of this, and nobody should. Knowing which modules to start with, which to add as scale arrives, and which to add in order to create scale is the single most valuable thing we do — and we know it because we have made those calls with our own money. Buy too little and you rebuild in eighteen months. Buy too much and you fund shelfware instead of inventory.

How We Sequence It

START HERE

Get the Truth Right

Financials, item architecture, Advanced
Inventory with the floating warehouse model,
landed cost, order management and the
marketplace integration. Everything else is
worthless until these are correct.

ADD WITH SCALE

Absorb the Complexity

OneWorld and Multi-currency, WMS, Demand Planning, NSAR, SuiteTax & Revenue Management — added when volume, entities or channels make the manual version the constraint.

ADD TO DRIVE SCALE

Go on Offence

NSAW, NSPB, Supply Chain Control Tower,
Advanced Manufacturing, EDI and
SuiteCommerce Advanced. These do not tidy
the business. They are how you decide where
the next dollar goes.

ei1 eCONOMICS

Category Economics Tell You Where to Play.
Unit Economics Tell You Whether to Keep Playing

A closed book tells you what happened. An FP&A function tells you what to do next. Most Amazon sellers have the first and improvise the second.
We build the second, in NSPB and NSAW, against a ledger that actually ties.

Contribution by ASIN

Revenue net of every fee, ad dollar, return,
storage day and reimbursement, down to the individual unit.

Category Structure

Where margin pools sit, how they are shifting, and which categories are structurally hostile regardless of execution.

Working Capital Velocity

Cash conversion by SKU. What each unit ties up, for how long, and what it returns for the privilege.

Ad Efficiency at Margin

TACoS measured against contribution rather than revenue, so spend is judged on profit and not on top line.

PLATFORM & INTEGRATION

OPERATE

Run the function,
not just the project

Finance and accounting, technology and integration, and business operations delivered from four geographies under US-based oversight. We build the system and then we run it — which is the only arrangement in which anyone actually finds the errors.

Diagnostic engagement of three to four weeks: settlement mapping audit, three-ledger reconciliation assessment, item and subsidiary architecture review and SOAP-retirement exposure. Fixed fee. The deliverable stands on its own whether or not you continue with us.

Most of our clients simply buy services, and that is the right answer for most of them. But where we and a client both see a real opportunity and a genuine fit, ei1 will place cash capital and senior time into the business and take equity. It is never a condition of working with us, and we raise it only when both sides think it makes sense

When You Should Not Hire Us

If you sell on one marketplace, run a few thousand orders a month and your fee structure is ordinary, buy a packaged connector and hire a bookkeeper who knows Amazon. It will be faster and cheaper, and someone else maintains it. We will tell you that on the first call.

Engage us when the complexity is real: multiple subsidiaries or marketplaces, cross-border FBA with intercompany transfers, a fee structure your close cannot explain, an FP&A function running on spreadsheets, or a diligence process about to ask a question your integration cannot answer.
