Software Developer Ai2 Changing the Convenience Store Industry With ProSel Sales Force Automation App for iPad
Chicago, Illinois (PRWEB) December 19, 2011
Software developer Ai2 announced today that thirty companies in wholesale distribution have licensed to implement ProSel™ — a sales force automation solution for the iPad™. The application debuted in March 2011 and has received more attention and positive feedback than any Ai2 solution to date, the company reports. The majority of the companies who have agreed to implement the solution are in the foodservice and convenience store distribution segments of wholesale distribution: wholesale groceries, foodservice, candy, tobacco, snacks and other sundries.
Tablets make up an ever-growing portion of the computing marketplace, with an estimated 192 million iPads to be in use by the end of 2012. As tablets take their hold in the business marketplace, the competition for business applications is fierce and unrelenting. Douglas Katich, the CEO of Ai2, said the reasons for Ai2’s success are its insider knowledge of the industries it serves and its commitment to innovation and development. “The majority of our resources go into developing better software solutions for the industries we serve,” said Katich who added that many of Ai2’s customers in foodservice, candy and tobacco, hardware, liquor and grocery distribution will benefit greatly from ProSel™.
ProSel™ was created to meet specific needs in the arena of outside salespeople who place regular orders for next-day delivery. In the foodservice and convenience store distribution industries a salesperson’s job is a mixture of quickly performing remote order entry, presenting new programs and specials, handling payments and prospecting for new accounts. These tasks are usually handled by a variety of applications running on a handheld or laptop computer and a mixture of physical paper. With ProSel™, a salesperson can perform all the necessary tasks with one application running on one device. The impact on companies will be swift and immediate, Katich says.
“One app, one device, no more paper, streamlined real-time communications from the home office to the entire field with a beautiful and simple user interface. The ROI for companies moving to ProSel™ is huge,” Katich opined. “The order entry part of the solution is unparalleled, no other app can search a 100,000-item database that’s running resident on the iPad lighting fast. A lot of other apps rely on constant internet connection, which isn’t fast or efficient enough for this industry.” More information can be found at http://www.prosel.com
