It’s a buyer empowered world, is your company relevant?

WEF’s Customer Portal for LumberTrack^TM saves time and money!

Do you use LumberTrack^TM for your lumber company or building material business? If so, you can now provide your customers powerful self service tools using the Customer Portal. When your LumberTrack^TM customers can log on to your customer portal, it empowers them.

First, your customers and your Customer Service Reps (CRPs) can easily view these real-time reports with drill down capability, making for more informed discussions and decisions:

• Pending Orders, Item Stats, Monthly Stats
• Recent Invoices, Multiple Locations
• Purchases by Location and Shipping info.

With such data at their fingertips to help guide the customer, your Customer Service Reps can serve as valued consultants rather than mere salespersons.

Second, your LumberTrack^TM customers and your CRPs will love having these capabilities online, anytime. They won’t want to switch to another vendor if your company is providing convenient, online tools!

Third, building a customer portal provides an opportunity to talk “with” your customers, not just “at” them. It builds rapport and fosters an ongoing relationship between you and your customers

Harvard Business Review Analytic Services points out that today’s environment is a “buyer-empowered world.” As such, it concludes, “To remain relevant in today’s market, sales organizations need to provide higher-value engagements that meet and anticipate customers’ current and future business needs.” According to this standard, is your company relevant?

Customers find answers quickly!

With the “My Contacts” and “Resources” sections, your customers can quickly answer questions such as:

• Can I reach my sales representative?
• Am I able to order online?
• Can I track my purchases at a moment’s notice?
• How can I get marketing materials?

The Customer Portal addresses these needs by enabling customers to serve themselves. It is a win-win!
