Business Challenge – Finding a Flexible Business Management System
Founded in 2013, QALO is a business the specializes in providing unique silicone rings as an alternative to a traditional wedding band. The QALO company name stands for quality, athletics, love, and outdoors. These products were created by the founders who wanted to create this alternative for those with an active lifestyle, like themselves. Because developing a ring that complements active lifestyles remains a top priority for the business, they found themselves needing to prioritize streamlining business operations.
Although production is a main priority, the business still needed improvements with other areas. They needed to find a flexible business management system for managing its daily operations. Before making a decision, they compared various options. Ultimately, they landed on using SAP Business One, due to a recommendation from one of their clients.
Software Solution – SAP Business One
Along with receiving a recommendation from a client, QALO decided to use SAP Business One for a few other reasons. This solution has a great flexible functionality as well as simple user interface. This made it a perfect choice for QALO. The team at Clients First Business Solutions worked with QALO in helping them establish their business on the platform. Meanwhile, they also provided QALO with assistance on expanding their retail operations, as they are a growing business.
While the retail side is much more complex than eCommerce, SAP Business One could simplify and automate much of the process. By implementing automation, QALO team members were able to save a lot of time and focus on other tasks. According to the President of QALO, KC Holiday, SAP Business One was easy to use while also giving employees additional flexibility due to its automated process.
The Results – Streamlined Operations & Rapid Growth
Using SAP Business One has made it possible for QALO to grow and reach many more customers significantly. The flexible functionality and simple user interface have enabled them to streamline many business operations. For instance, implementing automation allowed them to focus on other areas of business so they would be saving more time and money. By doing this, they were able to develop more products and further grow the company.
Initially, the company began with only a few people in a small office. Now, QALO has been able to grow their team and has more than 60 employees. The unique silicone rings that QALO produces are available in even more styles and colors. Their rings are worn by many happy customers, including professional athletes in their customer base. By growing not only their team of employees but also their line of products, QALO is able to profit and grow even more than they would have without this software solution.
Choosing to implement SAP Business One was an excellent choice for QALO. It helped them better manage their business operations. Additionally, it has enabled them to experience rapid growth. This platform will only continue to play an essential role in the success of QALO.
