Let's talk about Profitability for Returns. For each returns to be profitable, brands need to know couple inputs: cost across all services to make this return sellable again, and revenue the unit could generate after. (Re)vive | B-Corp Certified calculates the projected cost of services in the moment of processing, and compares that to our ASP database to know exactly what ROI we could drive for each item! We automatically decline services to returns (and $0 charge to brands) that do not meet the brands' profit goals. See below for exactly how we do this through data magic!
