  You will need to ensure that your computer system has all stock currently in your business detailed to the software – including stock at home and in the back room. No hiding anything – not if you really want to free cash.
  Don’t think for too long – quit the dead stock quickly. Free up cash – probably less than you paid but learn from that.
