Quick Profit Check
Export your products from Shopify (Products → Export → CSV) or paste a simple list. The check runs in your browser only, your file never leaves your device.
Recognises the Shopify columns Title, Option1 Value, Variant Price, Cost per item and Variant Inventory Qty, among others. Without a buying price (“Cost per item”) the check can’t calculate profit.
Your result shows up here
Real profit per pair, pairs below break-even, tied-up cash and how much Black Friday discount you can afford.
Where stores leave money on the table
Buying
Bought too high
Bought too fast or too high, little left in your shop. A buying cap per model, based on your real shop price.
Pricing
One price for every size
Rare sizes go out too cheap, common sizes sit. Prices by size and demand instead of gut feeling.
Shop costs
Hidden costs per order
Payment fees, shipping, returns and ads eat your margin. Real profit per pair, not just price minus cost.
Customers
Paying for every sale again
Without repeat customers every order has to come from ads. Newsletter, WhatsApp and cross-selling for more revenue per customer.
Inventory
Cash stuck in bricks
Pairs sitting for months tie up money for the next drop. Use Black Friday on purpose instead of discounting everything.
Platforms
Shop or platform?
StockX, Alias, eBay and co. make sense for single pairs. Compare margin per channel and place leftover pairs right.
For every store model
You sell other people’s pairs
Minimum commission, clear rules for price drops and returns after 90 and 180 days, and which consignors to grow.
Webshop, stores and platforms
Margin per channel after all fees, and where each pair earns the most.

Example values, change them freely. Please check your payment provider’s or platform’s current fees. Calculated for selling to private customers (B2C). Germany: 19 %, other EU countries: enter your rate. If you sell more than €10,000 a year to private customers in other EU countries, the buyer’s country rate applies (OSS). Return cost = rate × cost per return, spread across every sale. Simplified, without fixed costs like rent or shop subscription. Not tax advice.

About me
Noah Bernhardt
I founded my own sneaker shop a few years ago. I know from experience where a shop loses margin and how a few euros per pair add up over a year. Today I pass that on to other stores so they get more out of every pair.

Frequently asked questions
Is this just software?
No. I do the analysis and tell you exactly what to change. You get the toolkit on top, so you can check new pairs yourself.
Does it work with Shopify?
Yes. Products → Export → CSV is enough. For correct profits, “Cost per item” should be filled in. Excel or your own lists work too.
We sell on consignment or run a marketplace.
Then we look at commission, rules for old pairs and margin per channel. If it’s not a fit, I’ll tell you honestly in the first call.
Who sees my buying prices?
Only me. The Quick Check runs in your browser. During a project your data stays confidential, in writing if you like. I never share it with other stores.
Which countries do you work in?
All over the EU. Calls in English or German. The check uses your country’s VAT rate.
What does it cost?
The check is free. Profit Setup €590 (founding price €295 for the first 5 stores), Monthly Partner €249 per month, Dead-Stock Exit on commission. All excl. VAT.
Is this tax advice?
No. I calculate with your VAT method; please confirm the details with your accountant.
