Flexible Wholesale Distribution Pick-And-Pack

Flexibility and accuracy are key when it comes to wholesale distribution pick-and-pack fulfillment and shipment procedures. If fulfillment systems require numerous programs and multiple steps, you’re wasting valuable time and sacrificing productivity. You need a single business management solution that seamlessly takes you from purchase order to shipment.

With SMB Suite’s all-in-one Wholesale & Distribution tool, you’re alerted to daily orders, the inventory that corresponds to them and any special attention you’ll need to dedicate to fulfilling them. Instead of scrambling to find the right items to fulfill an order at the last minute, the SMB Suite portal guides you through the process so your time is used efficiently on the orders that need it.

Opportunity Mining: Using CRM to Find More Business Opportunity

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has typically been viewed as a technology and not as a tool for greater opportunity. As such, much of the focus of business is on the evaluation, acquisition, implementation, cost, and management of a CRM system – instead of how to use CRM as a key tool for the mining of new opportunities.

How does CRM help you find more opportunities? How is CRM an effective mining tool? The answer to both these questions can be answered in a simple sentence, “By helping you create more loyal and satisfied customers.”

Let’s take a look at  how you can “mine” new opportunities – even from your existing customers and current operations – by using CRM to accomplish the following five activities:

  1. Find and Nurture Your Best Customers: Many businesses focus on the customers that buy the most, thinking that revenue equals success. In the end however, it’s loyalty, satisfaction, and profits that equal success. CRM identifies the most loyal and profitable customers and gives you the tools needed to nurture those relationships into more opportunities for your company.
  2. Align Goals: When your customer service and value align with your customer’s goals, the outcome is a ‘win-win.’ CRM captures, aligns, and assigns customer’s goals within your organization to maximize your relationship and opportunity capture.

Seamless Integration of Sales Management Software

Between salespeople, management and overseers, many hands touch your sales and sales pipeline. While this is great for quality management and control, each handoff opens up the opportunity to lose information in the transfer. You need a sales management solution that keeps every user abreast of changes to avoid mistakes, inventory errors and duplicate entries.

With the CRM Sales Foundation package by SMB Suite, your business management software is completely integrated with Outlook and your other Microsoft Office reporting tools. Real-time updates and refreshes span every platform you’re working on and include every task, from quote requests to management approvals.
