PLUS, FOR YOUR INDUSTRY · HOW AN ORDER COMES IN

Four different languages, every day

None of them is wrong. The customer orders the way they sell, and your company sells by the full case. Converting between the two is the work, and it's where the sales rep's day goes.

hi i need 2 cases of the usual and 6 singles of the small one thanks

SKU 40218 · 40219

Two cases of 12 plus 6 units

“The usual” means whatever was in the last order, and “the small one” isn't a product: it's the size.

Availability and volume pricing

It comes in during selling hours and ties up a sales rep who was busy selling.

Same content, different order

Every customer builds their spreadsheet however they like, and none of them matches the last one.

ONE ORDER, LINE BY LINE

Margin doesn't get lost in the price. It gets lost in these two lines.

Eight lines from a real order. Six translate on their own. The other two go back to the sales rep, and that's the half hour on the phone that pushes the price out to tomorrow.

AFTER THE TRANSLATION

The order only starts moving once someone has understood it.

Everything that comes after is already handled in your company: it gets picked, packed and shipped. What isn't handled is the line nobody could translate, and that one holds up the whole order.

WHAT YOU CAN ADD TO THE WEBSITE

Clean up the catalog and the customer list

These are extras. Without them, the cross-reference table keeps living in the head of the salesman who's been there twenty years.

001

Your customer data, organized

The catalog and the customers, organized and with no duplicates. It's the prerequisite for everything else.

002

CRM

Customers and open quotes in one place, with follow-up visible to the whole team.

003

Chatbot that answers and qualifies

Takes the order and answers availability without tying up a sales rep during selling hours.

004

Your own newsletter

Your list to announce restocks, new products and price lists, without depending on the sales rep.

WHAT WE AUDIT

Seven cases, one load

We come in through one specific problem and look at the whole operation. At the end of the route the count has to add up: seven areas went out and seven came back with something written down.

HOW IT'S DONE

Four stages, always in this order

Having a person review the order before it goes into the ERP is the industry standard, not a limitation of ours. Anything doubtful is flagged as doubtful.

Reviewed and approved

001

We audit

We look at how the distributor works today, area by area. Not the impression: the data that already exists.

002

We optimize

The process gets sorted out before it's automated. Automating something bad makes it faster, not better.

003

We automate

Only what makes sense for your operation, not what's trendy.

004

We train

Your team walks away knowing how to run it. Otherwise, in three months the order pad is back.

AFTER THE FOUNDATION

What's specific to the industry

Examples of what can be put in place once the foundation is there. What fits your property comes out of the Audit.

Money Today

All open quotes in one list: which ones got no follow-up, which ones are waiting on an approval and which ones are closest to closing.

Reorder Radar

Which customers should be coming back to buy based on their own history, and which ones are past their cycle.

Customer Finder

Which B2B accounts that look like your good ones aren't buying yet, based on what the company distributes.

First we look. Then we decide.

  • Guided questionnaire, 15 to 25 minutes
  • All seven areas, plus what's specific to your industry
  • A map of what's worth doing now and later
  • A person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Written proposal and online payment, no calls

Whatever it costs to put in place shows up on the map, with the scope of each item next to it.

OBJECTIONS

What people usually ask

My catalog is a total mess.

That's the most common case, and it's why the Scan looks at it first. If it needs cleaning up, it's quoted separately and you know before we start.

If it gets a price wrong, I lose a customer.

That's why nothing goes out until a person approves it, and anything doubtful is flagged as doubtful.

I already have an ERP.

We don't replace it. This happens before: it turns the order into something the ERP can take.

My sales reps won't use it.

That's the real risk. That's why the only thing that changes in their day is reviewing and approving, and the training is done with their own quotes.

If there's nothing worth doing, we tell you

Free: a 15 to 25 minute questionnaire and the map of your operation. If the Audit finds nothing worth implementing, the map is still yours. If you have questions about the map, write to us on WhatsApp or Instagram: the proposal arrives in writing and is paid online, no calls.
