A sample day
Retail shop
In store and online: one stock, one loyalty card and one customer list.
A day with Octyo
The moments Octyo helps, from opening to closing time.
- E-commerce
Overnight orders
Two orders paid online are waiting, one to ship and one for in-store pick-up. Their items are reserved in stock, and the online store only shows what is left to sell.
- Point of sale
The first customer of the day
A board game is scanned and paid for by card. The item leaves the stock, and the quantity available in the online store updates right away.
- E-commerce
An in-store pick-up
The customer who ordered last night comes to collect. Prepared and marked “ready for pick-up” in the morning, the order switches to “delivered” when it is handed over.
- Purchasing
The distributor’s delivery
The manager receives the order by scanning it on her phone. Part of it is missing: what arrived goes into stock at cost, and the rest stays pending on the purchase order.
- Loyalty
A birthday gift card
A customer buys a gift card at the counter, with a message. It can be spent in several goes, in store or online, and in Quebec it never expires.
- Email marketing
The new arrivals newsletter
The manager builds this month’s newsletter from blocks, adds three catalog products with photo and price, and schedules it for Thursday. Only customers who opted in will receive it.
