Wholesale trade portal

A trade portal where wholesale customers log in, see their own prices, and place orders without a phone call or an email thread.

Every phoned-in order gets retyped, and retyping is where the errors and the hours go. A trade portal gives wholesale customers their own login, their own prices, and a one minute reorder, and structured orders arrive priced and ready to invoice instead of buried in a thread.

It also grows the account quietly. Stockists reorder more when reordering takes a minute, and stock visibility means they order what you can actually supply. Built for a skincare brand whose stockists ordered by email thread: orders now arrive itemised, and the owner stopped retyping them.

• Trade orders arrive by phone, text and email thread
• Someone retypes every order at least once
• Stockists cannot see prices or stock without calling
• Reorders are smaller and rarer than they should be

One of these is usually enough. If none of them is true, this is not the first thing I would build for you, and the plan will say so.

Every phoned-in order gets retyped at least once, and retyping is where the errors and the hours go. Stockists also reorder more when reordering takes a minute.

Nothing has to be built before this one, so it can be the first thing you do. Your free plan still puts it in order against everything else you are considering.
