Colect x ImPuls GmbH for Armedangels
What Colect could offer in terms of customizable design, storytelling and sales features was seen as a great addition to their core business of data maintenance, handling mass data, and logistic processes. A native connection between ImPuls GmbH and Colect ensures a stable and reliable ERP system that seamlessly interacts with Colect’s elaborate digital wholesale software.
Coming from a situation where they used the same system for B2B as for B2C sales, the need emerged to have a dedicated B2B platform for wholesale. ARMEDANGELS wanted to move away from manually handling orders in Excel and the responsibility of maintaining their own webshop. Their wish was to transition to a digital sales platform that looks and feels like a B2C environment and has visually attractive storytelling features.
Additionally, they wanted the data management to remain as stable and reliable as it had been ever since they started working with ImPuls GmbH. Therefore, a native connection between Colect and ImPuls GmbH was a perfect fit for the situation.
The collaboration between Colect and ImPuls GmbH was especially beneficial in terms of integration and stability. Armedangels was onboarded within a month, only one meeting and a weekly call needed. Thanks to the standardised format, the definition of how data needs to be sent to Colect didn’t need to be invented, but ran fast and smoothly.
In developing the interface, Armedangels found it beneficial that Colect had a foundation based on a large customer base with lots of feedback, giving them clear guidance in setting up their own Colect Sales App and Brand Portal.
As a result, communicating with different clients and handling large amounts of data got a lot better and more efficient for Armedangels. Working with ImPuls GmbH and Colect saves them time, especially for the IT department and back office but also for sales representatives.
While some clients can find their own way in a (semi) self-serviced Brand Portal, other client groups get a guided sales experience with the Sales App. Thanks to content-driven storytelling and smooth data management, all client groups get a full brand experience and sales reps can give customers and collections their undivided attention.
Despite having all these great functionalities, Colect still works flawlessly. It has a robustness to it and enables you to do great things without losing the fundamentals.- Matthias Wirtz, Head of IT, Armedangels
