30% year-over-year growth after automating multi-channel accounting.
Channie's Visual Handwriting and Math Resources was founded in 2015 by Chan Stimart, who invented a novel approach to helping children improve their handwriting. The brand grew exponentially across Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and big box retailers. When multi-channel manual data entry became the team's biggest burden, Webgility solved it in one step.
Multi-channel growth created a multi-channel data entry problem
Channie's was founded on a simple, powerful idea: a better way for children to practice handwriting. But success created a new problem. With products selling on Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and Target, as well as through their own channels, the team was drowning in manual data entry.
Every order from every channel had to be manually entered or reconciled into QuickBooks Online. With so many sales channels generating volume, this consumed two or more hours of the team's day. It was time that could not be spent on product development, marketing, or serving customers.
For a growing educational brand founded by a parent who wanted to solve a real problem for children and families, spending the majority of a workday on accounting administration was not acceptable. Channie's needed a solution that worked across all their channels, connected directly to QuickBooks Online, and was easy to implement without a technical team.
Webgility seamlessly syncs every channel to QuickBooks Online automatically
Channie's selected Webgility as the best fit because it was easy to implement and connected all their active channels directly to QuickBooks Online. From the moment it was set up, Amazon, eBay, and Walmart orders began posting to QuickBooks automatically, with proper categorization of sales, fees, and refunds.
The two-plus hours per day the team had been spending on manual data entry was reclaimed entirely. With accurate books and freed-up time, Channie's was able to put more energy into what was driving their growth: creating and marketing excellent educational products for children.
