Industries / B2B e-commerce

Quotes sent in hours, not days.

For distributors, wholesalers, and manufacturers selling to businesses: price requests, order questions, and follow-ups handled, with your sales team focused on the accounts that matter.

01 / Day-to-day for sales teams

Sales reps who spend more time answering than selling

"A price request comes in on Monday. The quote goes out on Thursday, and the customer has already ordered elsewhere."

In B2B, the first complete quote often wins the order.

"Where is my order? Is it in stock? We answer these questions all day."

Customer service is swamped by requests whose answer is already in the ERP.

"Our regular customers are ordering less, and we notice too late."

Order declines go unnoticed until the account is lost.

"The website, ERP, and CRM don’t talk to each other. We re-enter everything."

Every re-entry costs time and creates errors.

02 / Use cases

What we set up at a distributor

01Capture & follow up

Handle quote and price requests

Situation

Price requests come by email, form, and phone, often incomplete. Sales reps handle them between meetings.

What Heralink sets up

  • Request qualification: references, quantities, timeline, delivery terms.
  • Customer identification and pricing terms.
  • Draft quote prepared from the ERP, approved by the sales rep.
  • Routing to the right rep by account or territory.
Expected result

Complete quotes sent faster, and reps who approve instead of typing.

  • An assistant connected to the ERP: stock, lead times, order status.
  • Spec sheets and product documents sent on request.
  • Delivery tracking with the carrier.
  • Escalation to customer service for disputes and special cases.
Expected result

Customer service available for the issues that need a person.

Follow up on carts, quotes, and reorders

Situation

Unconverted quotes, abandoned carts, and order declines are tracked by nobody.

What Heralink sets up

  • Follow-ups on pending quotes and abandoned website carts.
  • Detection of regular customers whose orders are slowing.
  • Reorder reminders based on purchase history.
  • Alerts to the sales rep on at-risk accounts.
Expected result

Fewer lost orders, and accounts looked after before they drift away.

Integrate your tools

Situation

The website, ERP, CRM, and sales tools run separately. Teams re-enter orders, customers, and product data.

What Heralink sets up

  • Sync between ERP, CRM, and e-commerce site.
  • Product listings generated and enriched from your data.
  • Consolidated sales reporting, updated automatically.
  • Connection with your B2B marketplaces and platforms.
Expected result

A single source of truth, and teams who no longer re-enter data.
