Introduction: The Shift to Digital-First B2B Sales

For wholesalers and distributors, scaling online sales isn't just about having a website—it's about creating a seamless digital experience that integrates with your existing operations, automates pricing, and empowers customers with self-service tools.

Traditional B2B sales models rely on phone orders, emails, and manual data entry, leading to inefficiencies, errors, and slow growth. TOTECS helps wholesalers and distributors overcome these challenges by providing a powerful, fully integrated B2B eCommerce solution designed for scalability.

1. Automating Complex Pricing and Customer-Specific Deals

The Challenge:

Wholesalers and distributors deal with customer-specific pricing, bulk discounts, and contract-based rates that can be difficult to manage manually. Many eCommerce platforms struggle to dynamically adjust pricing for different customer segments.

How TOTECS Solves It:

• Dynamic pricing engine automates contract pricing, volume discounts, and promotional offers.
• Customer-specific catalogues display only relevant products and pricing for each buyer.
• Real-time updates eliminate manual errors and pricing disputes.

Impact: Businesses using TOTECS have seen a 40% reduction in pricing-related inquiries and faster quote-to-order conversions.

2. Seamless ERP & Inventory Integration

The Challenge:

Many wholesalers still rely on manual processes to update inventory, track orders, and sync customer accounts between their eCommerce store and ERP. This results in outdated stock levels, order delays, and manual errors.

How TOTECS Solves It:

• Real-time ERP synchronisation ensures stock levels, pricing, and orders are always up to date.
• Automated workflows eliminate duplicate data entry and reduce manual processing time.
• Integrated accounting & invoicing simplifies reconciliation and order management.

Impact: Companies using TOTECS cut their order processing time by 50%, improving fulfilment accuracy and customer satisfaction.

3. Driving Online Adoption with a Superior Customer Experience

The Challenge:

Many B2B customers are used to phone or email orders and hesitate to switch to online purchasing. Without a well-designed eCommerce experience, businesses struggle to encourage digital adoption.

How TOTECS Solves It:

• Easy-to-use self-service portal where customers can place orders, manage quotes, and track shipments.
• Mobile-friendly interface optimized for contractors and field buyers.
• Automated reordering tools for frequently purchased products.
• Customer incentives (discounts, exclusive online pricing) to encourage digital adoption.

Impact: Within 6 months of implementation, 30% of sales for TOTECS clients shift from traditional ordering to online self-service.

4. Scaling Without Limits: Future-Proofing Your Growth

The Challenge:

Wholesalers and distributors often outgrow their eCommerce platforms, requiring expensive migrations or extensive customizations to support new product lines, locations, or markets.

How TOTECS Solves It:

• Modular, scalable platform that adapts as your business grows.
• Multi-location and multi-currency support for expansion into new regions.
• API-driven architecture for easy integrations with third-party logistics, CRM, and marketing automation tools.

Impact: Businesses using TOTECS scale seamlessly, adding new product lines and customer segments without costly platform changes.
