Don't get fooled

5 mistakes operators make when choosing

Mistake #1 — Shopify-only tool when 30%+ on Amazon

Triple Whale/Polar treat Amazon as bolt-on.

Fix: Demand native Amazon parity.

Mistake #2 — No wholesale AR view

Wholesale loses 4–8 margin pts in unpaid invoices.

Fix: Demand AR aging.

Mistake #3 — Tracking gross revenue not channel margin

Revenue without margin is misleading.

Fix: Demand channel margin.

Mistake #4 — Buying Daasity at $5M without data lead

Warehouse needs analyst.

Fix: Pick turnkey first.

Mistake #5 — Per-seat at 8-person team

$50/seat × 8 = $4,800/yr.

Fix: Per-account.
