The new facility, which is accessed via the distributor’s iManage account management portal, provides dealers with 24/7 visibility of live stock status and the ability to place back orders and order SIM cards as well as handsets and peripherals.
Products can be filtered by manufacturer, network or device, with an instant link to GSM Arena providing associated product information. The system also recommends alternative devices if a product is out of stock.
“Our iManage portal has proven to be extremely popular with dealers, but we’re continuing to look at ways to further enhance the service,” says Mainline managing director, Andrew Boden. “This latest development provides dealers with an easier method of ordering whatever they need, whenever they like from an accurate and comprehensive stock list. It makes for a more reliable and streamlined supply process, enabling dealers to deliver excellent customer service and to dedicate more of their attention to growing their business.”
