Profile Products
Customer Profile
Profile Products is Australia's largest manufacturer of picture frames. Based in Sydney, the company supplies most of Australia's major retailers, including David Jones, Myer, and the Kodak and Fuji photographic store chains, as well as numerous independent retailers.
Situation
While Profile Products uses electronic data interchange (EDI) to exchange information with large retail customers, they needed a different solution to take orders from smaller customers. Profile Products manufactures to order. While the turnaround for products is just 48 hours, their reliance on sales representatives to send in orders via mail meant that it typically took more than five days for orders to be added into the system.
Solution
By employing Spectrax System business software tools and equipping its representatives with Client Connect Pocket (CCPocket), Profile Products eliminated the gap in processing orders.
Benefits
The company calculates that due to increased efficiencies, the entire Spectrax System should pay for itself within six months. Spectrax System integrates seamlessly with Profile Product's existing MYOB system, so there's no need to enter data twice. Using Spectrax System also allows Product Profile's office administration staff to focus on superior customer service, rather than simply re-keying entries.
