Your questions, answered

What dealers that sell both lumber and hardware ask us

Can one catalog serve contractors and homeowners?

Yes. Segment customers into groups and show specific products and prices to each group, so the contractor and the walk-in shopper each see a catalog meant for them.

See customer groups
Can contractors see contractor pricing while homeowners see retail?

Yes. Customers are classified as Pro or Regular and placed in groups with tiered pricing, so each sees their own price.

See Pro accounts
How do we handle yard delivery and store pickup together?

In one shipping module: delivery zones, rates and rules for the yard, and pickup from the right location for the store, with the same statuses and notifications.

See shipping
Do we need two systems?

No. One platform gives you a storefront, a contractor dashboard and a branded mobile app on one catalog, synced to your ERP.

See the dashboard
Can we quote a big lumber order and still sell a drill at the counter?

Yes. Quotes convert into orders, and counter, POS and online orders all land in the same orders list.

See orders
How do we keep a mixed catalog clean?

Organize categories, subcategories and variants, offer bundles, and let AI product enrichment complete and tidy product data so it stays searchable.

See product management
Can our team handle both kinds of customer in one inbox?

Yes. One company number for SMS and WhatsApp serves the whole team, and Assist AI brings emails, texts and quote requests into one place.

See messages
Will it connect to our ERP and our distributors?

Yes. Connect your ERP and the Orgill, Do it Best and Emery Jensen catalogs, and our team handles setup.

In practice

A day with two kinds of customer

  1. 1

    Early: contractors stock up

    Pros order at their own pricing, on account, for delivery or pickup.

  2. 2

    Midday: homeowners shop

    Retail customers use the storefront or app, with the products meant for them.

  3. 3

    Afternoon: quotes and counter sales

    Big quotes and small counter sales share one orders list.

  4. 4

    Evening: one view of both

    One dashboard and one ERP sync for the whole business.

One storefront, the right prices for each buyer
