Excellent organisation is the key to success in most business sectors, but when you are dealing with customers, clients, and stock, it becomes even more important. Poor organisation leads to lost stock, misplaced orders, and poor communication, all of which cost you money in the long term. Getting organised can be tricky and time-consuming, but with the Sage mobile app, many organisational aspects of your business are a lot easier.
But, how can the Sage mobile app make that much difference to how you organise your business, your stock, and your finances? Firstly, its mobile nature means that you can keep track of many aspects of your business from anywhere. Not only that but by rolling out the app to other members of staff, such as warehouse operatives and sales reps, you can ensure that everyone is on the same page and receiving the same information. This drastically reduces the likelihood of mistakes. So, for example, if your sales rep is out meeting new clients, they can make delivery promises based on real-time information from the warehouse. This is a great improvement to relying on outdated information or needing to wait to communicate with the warehouse to see if the promises can be delivered. Not only does this make your business more efficient, but it increases your trustworthiness in the eyes of your clients, who know that you only promise what you know you can deliver. One concern that many businesses have over using such technology is that it removes some of the checks that are made on orders, particularly in relation to accounts for new clients. However, with the Sage 50 mobile sales app, this is not a concern. You can customise the app to meet your business’ needs, including placing head office controls on orders. This means that you can check and where necessary challenge orders before they continue through your system.
Mobile technology is not just about the sales side of your business. Using such technology allows you to put everything in one place. This means that you can create and track orders just as easily as you can view customer accounts and check stock levels. Combined with mobile barcode readers at your warehouse, the Sage additions mobile app can keep track of exactly where every order is from the moment it reaches your warehouse. Not only does this reduce the time it takes to find and ship orders, but it also reduces the risk of items going missing at any point. Having all this data to hand makes your business more efficient. Tasks can be completed quicker and there is less risk of mistakes at any stage of the process. This, in turn, means that your business processes are more cost-effective and your team members are more productive. All of this helps your business to grow and to stand out for the right reasons in an increasingly competitive market. A further benefit of choosing Sage stock control mobile technology is that it integrates with your existing Sage systems, meaning less disruption for you when you introduce the additional systems.
The Sage mobile app is the ideal addition to any business that deals with sales or stock storage and distribution. It pulls together the separate elements of your business and puts them in one place. Such technology, especially when implemented by a trustworthy consulting partner, means you have complete control regardless of whether you are in the office or out with clients.
