Key challenges at Brooklyn Best
- Very small team
With only five people, Brooklyn Best faced significant challenges in expanding its market. George’s primary role involved growing the business in New York by actively seeking new accounts and convincing them to purchase their low-sugar beverages. - Limited sales visibility
Previously, George used a system that was only suitable for taking orders. It lacked real-time tracking for B2B distribution, route optimization, scheduling, and account management. George had to use multiple apps or a paper notebook to store his sales data. - Lack of organization
When they started doing self-distribution, Brooklyn Best had a delivery person, but George had to manually assign delivery routes. This manual process wasted both his and the delivery person’s time.
Easy online wholesale solution
George struggled with managing routes and accounts efficiently, lacking clear visibility. That’s when a friend from another NYC-based brand introduced him to SimplyDepo, suggesting it could help keep all orders organized in one place. So, George decided to give it a try.
I told my partner, ‘Hey, let’s just work with it. It’s pretty good.
