Why Distributors Are Moving to Online Stores

Buyers Expect Online Ordering

Today’s clients want to browse, personalize, and order products online. They now expect real-time product availability, quick logo previews before they buy, secure checkout with multiple payment options, and order tracking that mirrors retail-grade shipping updates.

Manual Workflows Slow Distributors Down

Every disconnected tool adds another task to your day:

  • moving between tabs to verify pricing and inventory

  • copying data into multiple spreadsheets

  • chasing down client approvals and missing payments

Chipply pulls those steps into one automated flow, so orders move from cart to production without the busywork.

"It has very much allowed our sales reps to be sales reps, and not data entry people. They free up probably at least an extra hour and a half to two hours of their day that they didn’t have before."

Andrew Kohler
