How a CRM integration solution can empower your sales team...
Thursday, August 17, 2017Lauren Macdonald
Often when we talk about CRM integration with back-office accounting/ERP systems, we think of it in terms of the value it creates for our accountants and bookkeepers. When we look at CRM integration as a time-saver for these people, we often think about benefits such as invoices populating directly in the CRM system, customer data always being accurate and updated immediately, billing addresses being shared across business systems, etc.
While these are all great things and will certainly save our accounting/bookkeeping teams a lot of headaches, there’s other important people that will benefit from CRM integration as well… our Sales team!

The Truth About EDI
Wednesday, August 2, 2017Lindsay Hampson
Guest post by Marc Darmon
By now you likely already know what EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) is. Essentially, EDI is an electronic exchange of standard business documents between two companies. Which means if you want to stock the shelves of Walmart, Best Buy, Home Depot, etc. you need to meet their strict EDI requirements for doing so.
The trouble is… EDI sucks. No one in their right mind wants to do it, but unfortunately, it’s a necessary evil in doing business with the “Big Box” stores. Even more frustrating is that every store seems to have their own unique requirements for compliance.

Amazon and NetSuite ERP Integration Solution
Wednesday, July 5, 2017Lauren Macdonald
Every Amazon seller, regardless of whether they choose an
Individual or Professional Selling Plan, knows that there’s a list of
Amazon seller criteria they must oblige by in order to sell their products on Amazon.

- Running out of inventory
- Processing orders too slowly
- Not meeting shipping deadline expectations
- Receiving negative feedback from customers
NOTE: Too much of any of these things could even result in your Amazon seller account being revoked. Yikes!
