El problema
Drai's faced significant challenges with their inventory management process, which was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors. Weekly inventory checks required multiple employees working for hours, disrupting operations and pulling staff away from guest-facing responsibilities. The manual process of counting, recording, and consolidating data often led to inaccuracies, resulting in inventory discrepancies and inefficiencies in ordering stock.
In essence, the lack of streamlined processes made it difficult to handle the high demands of their dual operations as a Beach Club and Nightclub, where precise stock control is crucial to meet guest expectations and maintain profitability. This inefficiency not only wasted time but also impacted overall productivity and resource allocation.
La solución
WISK offered a comprehensive solution that revolutionized Drai’s inventory management by introducing a streamlined, scanner-based counting system, drastically reducing the time and effort required for weekly checks. The platform’s automated analytics enabled precise stock control and generated accurate, data-driven weekly orders, minimizing errors and waste.
Additionally, WISK empowered staff to perform inventory counts independently across the Beach Club and Nightclub, enhancing efficiency without disrupting operations. This allowed Drai’s team to redirect their focus toward elevating guest experiences and ensuring smooth day-to-day management of their dual venues.

They explained, "Inventory was a very time-consuming process. You’d have people stationed in different areas—one person calling out the counts, another writing them down, and someone else double-checking everything to make sure it was correct. It took up so much time and effort, and honestly, it wasn’t the most efficient way to do things."
The process relied heavily on teamwork but often felt chaotic and disorganized, with too many moving parts. The constant back-and-forth slowed things down, and even with multiple people involved, there was always a risk of errors slipping through. For a high-volume venue like Drai’s, this meant not just wasted time but also potential issues with inventory accuracy and restocking.
Now, with WISK, the entire approach has changed. "What WISK allows you to do," he continues, "is take one scanner, one set of sales data, and head to one location." This simplicity has redefined how inventory is managed. Instead of needing a team of people working together on one area, a single staff member can take the scanner, focus on one section, and complete their counts quickly and accurately.
The shift to WISK has made the process more streamlined and independent. Each person handles their assigned area with ease, and the data is immediately organized, eliminating the manual logging and cross-checking that used to eat up hours. “It’s clean, efficient, and saves us so much time,” he says, highlighting how this new system has transformed what used to be a cumbersome, all-hands-on-deck operation into a simple, effective task.
We have analytic data that we can review and it produces our weekly order.
They added, "Instead of us manually having to go through and build an order on a weekly basis from our sales, we now have analytic data that we can review and it produces our weekly order."
Before adopting this system, they were bogged down by the repetitive task of manually creating orders each week. This meant spending hours analyzing sales data, making educated guesses, and placing orders based on what they thought they needed. “Now,” they explain, “the system takes care of all that for us. It produces our weekly order based on the data we already have.”
The transformation has freed up valuable time and mental energy. With WISK handling the heavy lifting, staff can now focus on other important tasks, trusting that the system is generating orders based on real-time insights. It’s not only saved time but has also brought a higher level of accuracy to the ordering process, eliminating the guesswork and inefficiencies that once existed.
Drai's Las Vegas has redefined its approach to inventory management, turning a once labor-intensive process into a streamlined operation. Employees now spend less time on repetitive tasks, with weekly inventory checks reduced from hours to mere minutes.
This transformation, coupled with 98% accuracy in counts and orders, has not only improved operational efficiency but also empowered the team to focus on delivering exceptional service.
The shift highlights how modern tools can drive tangible results and set a new standard for productivity.

“Before using WISK, we had hesitations due to past unsuccessful experiences with other systems. We often reverted to pen and paper, which required transferring data to Excel, making the process very time-consuming. We started scanning everything, doing the inventory, it went super well, so I was very pleasantly surprised.”
Massimo, General Manager @ Lucille’s
“It took a lot less time to get everyone on board. They were all open for it because it's an app. They could use their phone. You know, at the touch of our phones, we have everything available. We just scan the item, we go through it all in a sequence, so it's very well organized, everything's well counted, and I think it just really facilitates the time efficiency of everything.”
Loyd, Owner @ L’infâme Tittle Tattle and La Gargamelle in Montreal
Before WISK, honestly, inventory was kind of a drag. We had this huge Excel sheet, we have over a hundred products in here, so it's kind of hard to just do inventories. It used to take us about one or two hours every week. Twice a week actually, it was not very accurate with our Excel sheet, but now it takes us like 20 minutes and we're done. And I was kind of surprised it was so user-friendly.
