The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Nex 5 economics actually settle.

Why retail margin planning matters on the Nex 5

Specialist shops generally target a higher multiple than convenience channels.

Consistency across batches matters more than peak performance for Nex 5, and retail margin planning is where inconsistency first appears.
