The Challenge
Wags! Dog Emporium faced several operational challenges before adopting eTailPet:
Flexible Shopping Options: The COVID-19 pandemic changed how people shop, and Wags! needed to adapt along with pet parents. They needed a way to offer seamless curbside pickup system to safely serve customers, and a flexible system that could help them adapt to future retail trends.
Disconnected Systems: Their online sales were not integrated with in-store inventory, causing inefficiencies and inaccuracies.
Manual Inventory Management : Inventory was tracked manually with pen and paper, making yearly inventory checks time-consuming and error-prone.
These challenges hindered their ability to provide exceptional service and focus on their mission of promoting pet health and wellness.
