We help businesses with web tools for business processes “in the cloud”!
Want to get past faxes, snail mail, phone orders, and in-house network servers and allow your dealers, retailers, distributors, etc. to order online, in real-time, from anywhere with an Internet connection?
In this latest installment of our “What We Do on the Web” series, I’ll outline some of the sales enhancing, time-saving, budget reducing B2B web ordering systems we’ve built.
What We Do on the Web: B2B Web Ordering Systems
Lots of businesses could use private online portals where their clients / dealers / distributors / affiliates can order products at base cost, review their order history, and get information on their order status. Whether you’re a manufacturer with dealers or distributors (or both), or sell to thousands of retailers, web ordering systems can be a huge step forward for your business.
We’ve built ordering systems for RV manufacturers, trailer manufacturers, bus manufacturers, financial services, boat & pontoon manufacturers, baking & decorating utensil manufacturers, and the bedding industry. Each web system has common functions and custom features to meet the unique needs of each industry.
Common B2B Web Ordering Systems Features:
- Private login areas for admin and dealers / distributors with unique views for each
- Ability to add products, and copy, edit, & delete products
- Multiple pricing options per “level” or “tier” of purchaser
- Order management area for the site manager (manufacturer, etc) to view, print, set status, delete orders
- User management – add users, view, edit, upload, etc.
- Allow users to create accounts, pending approval for access
- Resource areas for dealer sales and marketing material downloads
Custom Web Ordering System Features:
Companies need specific features tailored to their business needs. The systems we’ve built have included these custom features:
- Production queues to see the order of production and delivery times
- Production levels at multiple facilities
- Lead management and delivery of sales leads by geographic region to single or multiple dealers
- Lead transfer based on time lapse
- Lead Tracking for Manufacturer to review dealer follow-up
