Streamline Team Orders with the Apparel Webstore Feature in shopVOX's Ecommerce Suite

October 22nd, 2024

Managing orders for sports teams or group apparel can be a time-consuming and error-prone process. Tracking who ordered what, making sure sizes and quantities are correct, and tallying up payments can easily turn into a logistical nightmare. Enter the Apparel Webstore Feature in the new Ecommerce Suite Add-On for shopVOX PRO — designed to make bulk ordering simpler, faster, and completely error-free.

Whether you're managing team uniforms, corporate swag, or group apparel orders, the Apparel Webstore Feature will take the headache out of the process, allowing you to focus on delivering quality products, on time, with zero hassle.

How It Works: An Online Portal for Easy Ordering

With the Apparel Webstore, your clients can create a custom, branded online store specifically for group orders like sports teams, schools, and corporate events. The process is simple:

  1. Create a Webstore: Set up a fully customizable online store where team members or group participants can easily place their individual orders.

  2. Set an Order Window: You can keep the store open for a set period (e.g., one or two weeks) to ensure all orders are placed on time.

  3. Online Payment Options: The store accepts online payments directly, but if needed, you can also allow the team to collect payments offline.

This digital storefront eliminates the hassle of paper forms, manual order collection, and cash payments. Everything is handled online, making it more convenient for both the team and the shop.

Seamless Sync with the shopVOX Job Board

Once the order window closes, the magic happens: all the individual orders are synced and combined into one master job in the shopVOX Job Board. Here’s why that’s such a game changer:

  • No Manual Tallying: Forget about tallying up who ordered what, or double-checking for missing details. All orders are neatly compiled into one job, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

  • Error-Free Production: When the master job is synced to the Job Board, the production process becomes much smoother. No more errors from manual entry or misplaced forms — the order details are automatically pulled into your workflow.

  • Faster Invoicing: Since payment is handled online through the webstore, invoicing is faster and easier. You can generate a consolidated invoice for the entire job or, if needed, issue individual invoices for each participant.

This streamlined approach is perfect for sports teams placing bulk orders for uniforms or gear, saving you and your client hours of administrative work.

Perfect for Team Gear and Group Apparel Orders

The Apparel Webstore is tailor-made for sports teams, schools, and other organizations that regularly place group apparel orders. Instead of the team manager or coach trying to track down who wants which size, you simply direct everyone to the online store.

Here’s why the Apparel Webstore Feature is a must-have:

  • Simple Ordering: Team members can log in, select their items, choose sizes, and pay—all from the comfort of their homes.

  • Batch Production: After the order window closes, all orders are consolidated into one job, so your production team can start working with accurate data.

  • Automated Workflow: The entire process, from order placement to invoicing, is automated, eliminating costly mistakes and saving time.

The Full Ecommerce Suite: More Than Just a Webstore

While the Apparel Webstore is a star feature of the Ecommerce Suite, it doesn’t stop there. As an add-on to shopVOX PRO, the full Ecommerce Suite includes additional tools designed to help businesses grow and streamline their customer interactions:
