New Software Features & Updates
How your brand can invite a store to sell your products
FOR BRANDS AND DISTRIBUTORS
Your Shop Local Store has a new feature: You can now invite your retailers to become authorized dealers for the brands you sell. This feature allows your business to invite new Shop Local retailers to sell your brand via our platform with the click of a button.
Example of this Feature
- In the example shown, we see a search in the Masterbar by Casafina for the store "Custom Touches."
- Clicking the store's name in the search results opens a modal where Casafina can manage its relationship with the store.
- The Business Management modal shows that the store is not an authorized dealer for either of the brands that Casafina distributes.
- If Casafina wishes, they can invite Custom Touches to become an authorized dealer for one or both of its brands.
Please follow these steps to view this new feature:
- Log in to your Shop Local account.
- Use the gray search bar at the top of the page to search for a retailer.
- In the search results, click on the store's name or logo. A modal will appear showing your brand's relationship with the retailer.
- In the Business Management modal, you'll see "Add and remove Authorized Dealer Status."
- If you are a distributor, you'll see all of the brands you distribute listed.
- If you are a brand, you'll see your brand listed.
- If the retailer is not an authorized dealer for your brand, click the "Invite to be Authorized Dealer" button.
- The retailer will receive a message and an email with your invite. A new ticket will also be created in the system. The retailer can approve or decline your request via their Ticket Tracking page.
