The Nailco Group
The Challenge
"Image is imperative in this business, and we set the standard. Before NowDocs, we had to use multi-part preprinted invoices that required dot matrix printers and we had to reload each of the different forms every time we were shipping to a different type of customer."
The Solution To meet the need to optimize the time and costs associated with this process, TNG selected NowFORMS to automate the invoice generation process by printing with laser printers on plain paper.
NowFORMS creates each invoice by seamlessly combining the SX.e data, logos, and format to be used based on division, type of customer, and geographic area. The invoice is then automatically sent to be printed and delivered by mail, faxed or e-mailed as an Adobe® PDF attachment. TNG stores all form overlays on the NowFORMS server and eliminated the need for pre-printed forms. They no longer have to order large quantities of pre-printed forms or find a place to store them.
“As our industry becomes increasingly competitive, we continually seek out solutions that make us stand out as industry innovators. We identified the need for improved communication methods as a key business driver to make us the vendor of choice for the salon and beauty industry.”
Craig Zampa, VP of Technology, The Nailco Group (TNG).
NowFORMS virtually eliminates the cost of processing invoices and statements by distributing them electronically. By emailing and faxing instead of mailing mission-critical documents, TNG saves one-half or more of their processing costs.
Spectacular Savings According to Craig, “We’ve calculated that by moving towards electronic document delivery, we are saving $0.80 per A/R Statement (postage and labor), thanks to NowFORMS. When you are handling thousands of Statements per month, that adds up quickly.”
The Results The new invoice design and the technologies that were made available with it have saved TNG significant expenses, while improving customer communications and TNG’s level of customer satisfaction.
