IC Intracom Mexico - a regional representative of an US-based company that develops, manufactures and distributes PC peripherals, accessories and networking products under several brands - earlier had its sales done through a telemarketing department. Orders could only be placed either by phone or an email. The company was growing and after several years, the number of orders increased significantly. Intracom started to look for an opportunity to give customers a self-service option. To provide B2B eCommerce services, they had decided to create their eCommmerce webpage. The main requirement was to integrate this page with their existing ERP system.
Having cooperated with Tecnofin, in 2011 the webpage was launched. The page allows:
A store was fully integrated with Intracom’s ERP system. This integration allowed to manage all operations from the ERP with no need to dive into the platform’s admin area.
The online store page became a significant competitive advantage for IC Intracom Mexico.
The company got a possibility to stay connected to their customers 24/7, and 365 days a year.
❝After we have launched our eCommerce webpage, 99% of the sales went online in just half a year!❞ - Gabriela Padilla, Organizational Development and IT Manager, Intracom
The telemarketing department was rebuilt into account management where employees now spend more time for customer business analysis and new solution promotion, instead of simple order management.
The number of sales administrators dropped from 10-12 to 3-4.
