A Truly Effective B2B Wholesale E-Commerce Platform

Boosting sales is one thing, but if it’s plagued by increasing distribution costs then you need to question your processes. True profit is a combination of driving sales and cost reduction simultaneously which is a heck of a challenge. This is how Brandscope can help to reduce distribution costs!

Fewer Catalogues

Ahh, the bane of a brand’s existence – catalogues. They’re expensive, time consuming and often inaccurate… but we’re terrified to let them go!

The secret is to transition your sales teams and retailers gradually away from catalogues and into a cost reducing digital software. Brandscope offers a far richer user engagement experience by taking into account more accurate and immediate information, capacity for collaboration, and having a greater story-telling capacity.

Brandscope allows the generation of high-resolution, printable and digital catalogues, but the real magic is in the system itself which combines ease of use with all the traditional sales tools in one easy place.

With digital lookbooks, catalogues, order forms and available stock sheets, our software really gives you the best of both worlds!

Less Samples

Samples are the ultimate write-off item on the balance sheet and a ‘heart-in-mouth’ experience when being ordered.

These “margin-munchers” adorn the corners of warehouses and the clearance shops. For some products, CAD drawings are as real as the real thing but this can be an expensive option and is often limited to technical products.

Samples are the backbone of the sale process, but you can reduce sample sets and SKU counts by relying on Brandscope to feature a full rainbow line using high definition photography (in both flat and animated 360°) and video to showcase your products.

Our platform offers full 360° display, large scale zooms and video assets at product level to deliver an almost life-like product viewing experience. You can then roll out semi-sample sets to your sales team and make their lives a little easier as well.

It’s a leap of faith, but does provide an opportunity to reduce costs and deliver greater efficiencies to the business.

Better Stock Control

Inventory can be a bottom line killer! Too much of the wrong stuff and you face the unenviable situation of having to clear at aggressive prices which congests your market and erodes brand equity. Not enough of the right stuff and you miss an invaluable opportunity to stamp your brand’s presence instore and maximise valuable floor space and refill sales.

If your business model is pre-book orientated, and placing “blind” early season manufacturing orders is just part of the game, then Brandscope can deliver greater accuracy with order placing and protect your inventory position for the future season.

In essence, your sales team create digital assortments (by month, by category, by colour, by price) for each retailer before the release is launched, basing their estimations at product level on prior season orders, marketed styles and expected best sellers. Assuming your team knows the customer and uses the analytics at hand, their suggested assortments should be 80% correct. You can then use Brandscope’s reporting tools before the line hits the road to guide early manufacturing orders. As the suggested orders are converted into hard orders, your reporting becomes more accurate, ensuring that you’re buying more of the right stuff and less of the wrong stuff!

Once the stock lands in-store, the powerful intuitive flow of the Brandscope refill tools kicks in to drive in-season orders. It’s a perpetual cycle for cost reduction and increased sales!

People Power

Brandscope specialises in human-enabling technology and harmonising the relationship between brand, agent and retailer.

Our experts know wholesale and the nuances between the entities that trade within this environment. This intimate understanding has allowed us to build a system that gives your sales and customer service team an elevated capacity to collaborate with each other and retail partners and ultimately, reduce costs.

They can work in unison on new orders, disperse influential marketing collateral and education information, create campaigns and incentives and manage stock models.

Essentially your team can service more retailers across broader channels with greater efficiency and speed. For new brands, it’s an opportunity to keep your head count down, control costs and sell your brand to retailers with greater efficiency.

Payment Gateway

Chasing money costs money! This is compounded when retailers order more because it’s so easy to do so, resulting in a trail of invoices, statements and late payers that clog up your cash-flow.

The Brandscope payment gateway, supported by globally recognised gateway provider STRIPE, helps retailers pay for refills as they go using direct debit, PAYPAL or credit cards like Mastercard, American Express, and VISA.

You can further grease the wheels of trade by aligning the payment gateway with the Brandscope Superfill stock model feature to really fire up the perpetual order and pay cycle. This feature also caters for dynamic freight tables and discounts.

Take your wholesale business to the next level with Brandscope – the intuitive B2B ordering solution that enables you to sell smart, sell easy, sell more. It’s that simple.
