    The Challenge

    Zia Pia faced the struggles that come with manual operations:

    1. Taking orders with pen and paper
    2. Creating line sheets and product catalogs manually
    3. Following up with customers after trade shows
    4. Responding to customer inquiries over calls/emails
    5. Chasing customers for payments
    6. Updating orders manually in Fishbowl

    These tasks consumed valuable time and resources. They recognized the need for change and embarked on a quest to find a solution.

      From pen and paper orders to quick scan and checkout

      Trade shows play a big role in Zia Pia’s sales. Thanks to WizCommerce, they’ve streamlined their entire trade show process. Now, they can generate custom labels with barcodes/UPCs, scan products for quick check-out, and capture buyer details with just a click. It’s all so easy! Automated follow-up emails ensure they never miss out on potential customers.

      It was a faster way to automate some of the tasks that I had just been doing manually. Ultimately, we chose it because it gave me more time to work on other stuff. It helps me do my job faster and better.

      From manual follow-ups to automatic updates for a better customer experience

      With WizCommerce, Zia Pia got lightning-fast access to customer information. This helped them speed up follow-ups and improve response times. Automated emails ensure instant order confirmations, shipping updates, and payment details, enhancing the overall customer experience.

      From manual presentations to one-click downloads

      Zia Pia struggled with manually creating product presentations. With WizCommerce, Zia Pia can instantly create, download, and share customer proposals in a few clicks, find exactly what customers want, suggest related products, and provide detailed information tailored to their needs.

      Before, I could manage follow-ups with four customers in an hour during a trade show. However, with WizCommerce, I could finish 150 follow-ups before the end of the show. It definitely cut my time in half in some instances.
