B2B online ordering platform vs a Retail ecommerce site
A retail ecommerce system is designed to sell products but does not address a businesses unique internal order management processes. You want your online ordering system to enhance your current sales process and make it more efficient and drive greater cost-savings and profit. You also need your system to cater to the different customer groups and relationships you have by offering different pricing options or products as required. A retail site uses a one-size-fits-all model whereas a B2B platform needs to be far more customisable and grow with your business.

A drive to web strategy is about re-engineering business processes to maximise efficiencies and reduce errors to the benefit of you and your customers. It is not just about short-term return on investment but about driving business growth now and future-proofing.

If cost is a concern for your business, a web ordering system can be built in stages as your business grows. 

Stage 1

ComCloud can start you off with a stand-alone platform which facilitates automation of the ordering process through customer self-service. The platform gives your business the ability to set custom pricing, discounts, and volume-based pricing for individual customer groups. Receive instant payments from customers via credit card, Paypal or direct debit.
Stage 2

This stage would involve systems integration with your in-house ERP and CRM systems for order data, customer data, product and price data etc.Integrate your internal systems with your store via an API for maximum automation and internal efficiencies in your business. Free up time for your staff to focus their time on revenue generating activities. 

Stage 3

The next stage could be to expand the platform to support secured, distributed order registration for your sales reps. This would be ideal for businesses with travelling sales reps, or to ensure continuity planning for working from home. This would also have the potential to dramatically reduce training times, reduce errors and ensure operability through disaster recovery scenarios.
