Onsight mobile sales app cuts Level Ground Trading's carbon footprint, boosts efficiency for fair trade


Cape Town, 25 Feb 2015

Onsight is a mobile sales suite and electronic product catalogue developed by Maxxor that has had positive impacts on the efficiency and success of many companies worldwide. One such company is Level Ground Trading.

Level Ground Trading was established by four Canadian families with the aim to improve the lives of disadvantaged producers through trade. Since 1997 the company has provided a means for producers from developing countries to get their products to a wider audience, in turn helping these producers' families to enjoy a better quality of life.

Some of the products which these farmers produce include coffee, cane sugar, dried fruits, vanilla beans, coconut oil, rice, tea and cacao nibs. They come from all over the world, including Bolivia, Colombia, India, Tanzania, the Philippines and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Level Ground Trading provides their affiliated producers with fair wages, healthcare benefits, scholarships for their children and technical assistance with regard to production techniques.

Since the company prides itself on keeping its carbon footprint as low as possible, the Onsight sales system is perfect for keeping paper wastage to a minimum. All orders are placed via the app on a mobile device and sent through to the admin office via e-mail. Quotes can also be created electronically.

Laurie Klassen, co-founder of Level Ground Trading describes her experience with the Onsight app: "Onsight allows us to generate orders electronically that are easily entered into our own customer management system. Admin staff can view orders in a clear and concise way, which increases our sales staff's efficiency. The app eliminates a time-consuming step for our sales reps, because they can enter orders directly onto the app while on the road. Onsight has cut our data entry time nearly in half."

The Onsight mobile sales app boosts the efficiency of Level Ground Trading's two travelling representatives since orders no longer need to be written down and then called into the admin office via telephone. The simple act of selecting the correct products and then pressing 'Send' seals the deal. Onsight thus allows them to get more work done in less time, making their trips more productive.

Maxxor views Onsight as a way to enable even the smallest companies to improve their order-taking and sales processes, and to compete with the best in their industry. The many diverse case studies on the use of Onsight by satisfied customers prove that companies in every industry and of any size can use the app to their advantage.
