Salon Today - August 2008 - (Page 30) In addition to addressing the decisionmaking and strategy, software can aid in the mechanics of ordering the products. Milano’s program sets up an SKU code list identical to the distributor’s list. “The systems can talk to each other,” explains Pagliaro. “The product number is the same; there’s little room for error and salons start off with accurate inventory and coding. Then the salons place their orders electronically, leaving the distributor’s sales consultant plenty of time to truly consult and educate instead of spending all of his time in the salon writing up the order.” Elite Software further relieves distributor sales people of having to inform owners of price hikes, because it compares the previous cost of product with the current cost. “Owners don’t have to go through invoices to figure out that the price has gone up,” notes Brad Mace, sales manager of the company’s Salon & Spa Management software.
