You grow. TradeRings handles the orders.
TradeRings automates the entire pre-order conversation, from first enquiry to confirmed order in your ERP, across every channel your customers already use.
Talk to usYour team is the bottleneck, and the bottleneck gets worse as you grow.
Every order that arrives by WhatsApp, email, or phone must be read, interpreted, priced, keyed into your ERP, and confirmed back to the customer. That takes time, creates errors, and consumes the people you need selling and building relationships. The costs are real but often untracked:
Processing time
If each order takes 10 minutes to process, 100 orders a day consumes over 8 full-time employees' worth of time. That work is distributed across your sales team, which means your salespeople spend a large portion of their day on administration, not selling.
Errors
Manual data entry generates errors at 4-7% industry average. Each error triggers a chain: picking, delivery, return, restock, re-delivery, credit note, customer service. The blended cost per error is often R500 or more.
Margin leakage
When every salesperson applies pricing independently, unauthorised discounts, ad hoc adjustments, and simple pricing mistakes leak margin. Even 0.25% leakage on a large order book is significant. Without an audit trail, you do not know it is happening.
Growth ceiling
Adding 50 customers means adding the capacity to process their orders. Without automation, that means more people. With TradeRings, it means more commission at marginal cost only.
Five things change when you switch on TradeRings.
Orders process themselves.
Customers send orders via WhatsApp, email, the TradeRings app, or web. The trading engine interprets the order, applies customer-specific pricing, confirms with the customer, and submits the structured order to your ERP. Your team sets the rules. TradeRings follows them.
Errors drop.
No manual recapturing means no transcription errors. Pricing is applied from your rules, not from memory. Products are validated against your catalogue. The error rate drops by 85-90%.
Pricing is enforced.
Every transaction follows the pricing rules, margin floors, and terms you define per customer. No unauthorised discounts. No ad hoc deals. Complete audit trail of every interaction.
You can grow without adding headcount.
TradeRings handles orders 24/7. Adding customers does not require adding order processing staff. The cost of growth is the marginal commission, not new hires, training, office space, and ramp-up time.
You can see everything.
Every order, every quote, every interaction is logged and visible. Management has real-time visibility into trading activity across all customers and channels.
Your customers keep doing exactly what they do today.
This is not a portal they need to log into. It is not a catalogue they need to browse. They send a WhatsApp message or an email, the same way they always have. TradeRings handles the response. The experience improves (faster responses, accurate pricing, fewer errors) without any change in behaviour.
You pay when orders are confirmed. Nothing else.
TradeRings charges a commission on confirmed order value, on progressive tiers that reduce as volume grows. No setup fees. No term commitments. No lock-in. TradeRings absorbs the cost of integrating with your ERP. Both parties can walk away at any time. If the value is not there, neither is the cost.
The commission is a variable cost tied directly to order volume. In months where volume is low, cost is low. In months where volume is high, so is the value TradeRings delivers. Compare that to the fixed cost of hiring additional staff, which you pay regardless of volume.
One conversation. Your numbers. A clear answer.
We will walk through your order volumes, processing costs, and growth plans. Using your own data, we will build a value model together that shows whether TradeRings makes financial sense at your scale. If the numbers do not work, we will tell you. No pressure, no follow-up campaigns, no games.
