You're not just an order taker. You need to collaborate with your clients to provide great product recommendations.

The best furniture reps don't just take orders—they act as strategic partners who help retailers curate the right product mix for their customers. Your expertise in product selection, market trends, and what sells well can make the difference between a retailer's success and failure. Collaboration matters. When you work together with buyers to refine product selections, provide ongoing feedback, and adjust recommendations based on their insights, you create stronger partnerships that drive more sales for everyone.

The Problem

Email collaboration is frustrating

Email chains become unmanageable messes

Product discussions get buried in long email threads with attachments that are hard to track. When multiple people are involved in the buying decision, important feedback gets lost, and it's nearly impossible to see the current status of any product recommendation. Your carefully crafted proposals disappear into cluttered inboxes.

Traditional product proposals are too rigid

Static PDFs and spreadsheets don't allow for continued collaboration

You spend hours creating product proposals, but buyers can't easily provide feedback, suggest alternatives, or collaborate on quantities and specifications. It's a one-way communication that often leads to delayed responses or complete silence.

No visibility into buyer engagement

You're left guessing instead of knowing how the client feels

After you present your product recommendations, you're left wondering: Are they interested? Did they share it with their team? What concerns do they have? Without real-time feedback or visibility into how buyers are responding to your proposals, you can't adjust your approach or address objections before it's too late.

Platform hopping kills momentum

Jumping between manufacturer portals wastes valuable time

Every manufacturer has their own portal, product catalog system, and pricing tool. You waste precious selling time logging into different systems, searching for products across multiple platforms, and trying to compile information from various sources into coherent proposals. This fragmented approach slows you down and creates opportunities for errors.
