Distributors can create more accurate orders and organize customer info without leaving ESP<\/em><\/p>\n

TREVOSE, PA \u2013 June 29, 2016 \u2013<\/strong>The\u00a0Advertising Specialty Institute<\/a>\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0(ASI) today announced the ongoing rollout ofESP<\/a>\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0CRM and Orders, designed to help distributors save time, create faster and more accurate orders and organize customer information in a single place, without leaving ESP.<\/p>\n

The additions of ESP Orders and CRM transforms ESP Web\u00ae<\/span>into the only fully integrated system in the $22 billion promotional products industry. By managing all daily business operations in ESP, distributors will save an estimated 45 minutes per day, thanks to increased efficiencies.<\/p>\n

All ESP users will enjoy an automatic upgrade of the latest ESP features by September.<\/p>\n

\u201cESP\u2019s new CRM and Orders are the final pieces in the creation of the industry\u2019s first fully integrated system, bringing every step of the sales cycle together in one centralized hub, from concept to re-order,\u201d said Timothy M. Andrews, president and chief executive officer of ASI. \u201cAnd, thanks to recent revolutionary advancements, ESP\u2019s e-commerce-enabled platform now gives distributors near real-time product, inventory, pricing and order status updates from integrated suppliers, along with digital purchase orders submitted into supplier workflows.\u201d<\/p>\n

ASI will demonstrate the all-new ESP platform at\u00a0ASI Show<\/em><\/a>\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0Chicago<\/a>, Wednesday, July 13, and Thursday, July 14. The annual trade show features a keynote Q&A with national political pundits\u00a0Mary Matalin and James Carville.<\/a><\/p>\n

Click here<\/a>\u00a0to join a special demonstration by ASI Chief Technology Officer Armughan Rafat on Tuesday, July 12, from 2-2:45 p.m. The special premiere will feature demos of the new ESP in action by Rafat and top ASI suppliers.<\/p>\n

CRM, or Customer Relationship Management, helps distributors track leads, optimize sales activities and foster better customer relations, with all prospects, clients, vendors, orders, reminders and tasks conveniently located in one online place: ASI\u2019s ESP.<\/p>\n

Distributors can easily add existing contacts and view all past conversations by clicking on a company\u2019s profile, where all orders, quotes and shared presentations pop into view, simplifying re-orders.<\/p>\n

Since it\u2019s synced with ESP\u2019s robust product database, the new ESP Orders auto-populates all product data, eliminating re-keying of information.<\/p>\n

And, working together, ESP CRM and Orders means fewer clicks, less data entry, higher accuracy, stronger connections and full integration with ASI\u2019s SmartBooks\u00ae<\/span>\u00a0and ProfitMaker\u00ae<\/span>. Integration with Intuit QuickBooks\u2122 is coming.<\/p>\n
