From supplier quote to customer order

Find buyers before you buy

See contacts linked to past offers and purchases of a product. Ask what they need, how much and when.

Collect supplier offers in one place

Ask suppliers for a quote and receive product, quantity and price details in a consistent format.

Compare the price and the terms

Compare received quotes for the same product, with quantity units, pack details and currency in view.

Give sales a clear next step

Send an offer to selected buyers. Next Best Actions helps your team follow up on enquiries, replies and repeat-order opportunities.

Keep track of the order

Keep deal stages, delivery dates and customer updates together, so your team knows what happens next.

Know what each deal is expected to earn

See deal value and recorded costs alongside claims and invoice-payment status.

Work alongside your existing systems

Use CreamSoda for supplier offers, customer conversations and sales follow-up alongside your stock and accounting tools.
A lower case price is only half the buying decision
A supplier offers a lower price if you buy more. Before committing, find the customers who have bought or considered the product and ask what they need now.

Talk to buyers before committing to stock

Use product history to decide who to call. Their answers help you judge the quantity and timing of your next purchase.

Start with customers who know the product

Open a product to see contacts linked to earlier offers and sales. Use that history to start a conversation about their next order.

Ask about quantity and timing

Ask buyers how much they need and when they need it. Keep their answers with the customer record while your purchasing team reviews the supplier’s offer.

Get supplier quotes ready to compare

Collect product, quantity and price details in a consistent format. Compare those offers with what your customers are asking for.

Make it easier for suppliers to respond

Send a simple offer request and collect multi-product responses in a consistent format.

Compare like with like

Compare received offers for the same product using compatible quantity units. Review the pack, currency and terms alongside the price.

Choose an offer you can sell

A lower price may mean buying more. Bring supplier quotes and buyer conversations together so purchasing and sales can weigh the same opportunity.

See what changes with the price

Compare the quoted price with the quantity, pack and currency on each supplier offer. See what you would be committing to.

Use buyer requirements to guide the purchase

Check the quantities and timing customers have discussed before choosing which supplier offer to pursue.

Reach the right buyers while the offer is current

Use earlier offers and purchases to choose who to contact. Send the product details to the buyers you select, then follow up on their replies.

Choose buyers for each offer

See contacts linked to products in the offer, then choose who should receive it. Select the products and details that fit each buyer.

Follow up with a reason

Next Best Actions highlights enquiries and replies that need attention, with a reason for each suggestion. Create a task or send an email, and set up sequences for agreed follow-up. With enough purchase history, it can also suggest repeat-order opportunities.
