From DMs to Deliveries: Streamlining Sales with Transactpay Catalog

The Challenge of Social Selling

Selling through social media platforms like Instagram and WhatsApp has become a popular method for many entrepreneurs. However, managing orders through direct messages (DMs) can be chaotic and time-consuming. Tracking orders, confirming payments, and arranging deliveries manually can lead to errors and customer dissatisfaction.

Beyond these operational challenges, there are deeper, long-term implications:

Inefficient Customer Relationship Management: Without a centralized system, maintaining consistent communication with customers, tracking their preferences, and offering personalized promotions becomes cumbersome.

Limited Access to Financing: Without formal records of sales and customer interactions, businesses may struggle to provide the necessary documentation for loans or credit lines. Lenders often require detailed financial histories, which informal sales channels don’t readily provide.

Challenges in Business Valuation and Sale: In the absence of structured records, accurately valuing a business becomes difficult. Potential buyers or investors may be hesitant to engage without clear insights into the company’s performance and customer base.
