GreenTree eCommerce specialises in eco-friendly home products and has seen rapid growth in online orders. However, as their customer base expanded, they faced several challenges:
Data scattered across multiple platforms, making it difficult to generate business insights.
Their website couldn't handle traffic spikes during seasonal sales, resulting in downtime and lost sales.
They lacked a mobile app, which meant they were missing out on engaging customers via mobile platforms.
Manual processes for managing orders and inventory caused inefficiencies.
Challenge 1: Seamless Integration with Backend APIs :
What GreenTree Was Facing: GreenTree’s operations relied on multiple disconnected systems, including separate platforms for managing orders, customer data, and inventory. This fragmentation led to delays, manual work, and inaccuracies, especially when handling orders or updating stock levels in real time.
What We Did: To solve this, NextBiz developed a custom API integration that connected GreenTree’s eCommerce platform with their CRM, inventory management, and fulfillment systems. This allowed data to flow seamlessly between their platforms, eliminating the need for manual updates and ensuring real-time synchronization across the board.
Order Processing Automation: We automated the process of capturing orders from the website and updating both the CRM and inventory management system in real time.
Inventory Updates: Every time a sale occurred, the inventory was automatically adjusted, and customers received up-to-date stock information.
Customer Data Sync: Customer details were synced across all platforms, ensuring that marketing and support teams had the latest information at their fingertips.
Results:The API integration reduced manual data entry by 70% and sped up order processing by 40%, leading to fewer errors and faster fulfillment times. This significantly improved the overall operational efficiency at GreenTree.
Challenge 2: Turning Data into Actionable Insights with Business Intelligence (BI) :
What GreenTree Was Facing: GreenTree’s data was stored across different systems—orders from the website, customer data in their CRM, and inventory updates from their suppliers. This made it difficult for them to track sales performance in real-time, identify trends, and optimize inventory. Without clear insights, they often faced stockouts on popular items and overstock on others.
What We Did: NextBiz integrated a real-time BI solution that pulled data from all their platforms into one unified dashboard. Using Power BI, we set up automated reports that gave the GreenTree team a holistic view of their sales, inventory, and customer trends—all in real-time.
Sales Trends Visualization: We created visual dashboards that allowed GreenTree’s management to monitor daily sales, product performance, and revenue streams.
Inventory Forecasting: Using BI analytics, we helped GreenTree optimize their stock levels by predicting demand based on historical data and seasonal trends.
Customer Insights: Our solution provided a clear view of customer behaviors and preferences, enabling GreenTree to tailor promotions and product offerings.
Results: GreenTree experienced a 25% reduction in stockouts and optimized their inventory levels, ensuring they always had the right products available for their customers. They also saw a 20% improvement in sales during peak seasons by better aligning their inventory with customer demand.
Challenge 3: Building a Scalable, Responsive Web System
What GreenTree Was Facing: As GreenTree’s online traffic grew, particularly during their promotional events, their website often crashed, causing significant revenue losses. They needed a web platform that could handle high traffic volumes, provide a smooth user experience, and scale as their business grew.
What We Did: NextBiz rebuilt their web platform with scalability and speed in mind. We moved their website to AWS cloud hosting, which allowed it to dynamically adjust to traffic spikes without compromising performance. Additionally, we focused on improving the user experience (UX) by optimizing loading times, enhancing navigation, and ensuring a mobile-friendly design.
Scalable Infrastructure: We implemented auto-scaling services on AWS, ensuring that the website could handle traffic surges during sales events without downtime.
Responsive Design: We revamped the website with a mobile-first approach, making it accessible across all devices and improving user engagement.
Security Enhancements: With online transactions at the core of their business, we integrated advanced security measures, including SSL encryption and multi-factor authentication for their customers.
Results: GreenTree’s website now handles 50% more traffic without any performance issues, leading to a 35% increase in conversion rates during peak sales periods. Additionally, the enhanced user experience led to a 25% reduction in cart abandonment.
