Client Tales: Purplu Changes Your Supply Chain

Being an SaaS, we don’t get the chance to meet our clients too often — which sucks because our clients rule. That’s where Client Tales comes in. It’s a chance for both you and us to get to know our clients better.

Today, Client Tales continues with purplu — one of Chile’s top five logistics and supply chain integrators. (If you’re a “The Big Bang Theory” fan, check out their site for some Easter eggs.) Let’s jump in, learn about purplu and meet the fun hottie-faces from Chile!

Jen Riggins: Could you please briefly introduce yourself and tell us what your business is about?

Raúl Aranguiz: We are a logistics and supply chain integrator, one of Chile’s top 5 distributors for barcode equipment and Apple Distributor.

Jen: Why did you start it? What makes it unique? 

Raúl: We started working because when I worked for a French barcode software editor, we believed we could really provide solutions instead of just equipment. We give customers what they really want: the chance to know how many items they have and where they are on their supply chain in real time through our iOS platform, purplu.

Jen: What do you love about being an entrepreneur?

Raúl: I love to sell, I love to correct things that are not working without bureaucracy.

Jen: How do you envision success?

Raúl: World Class Provider for Supply Chain and Logistics.

Jen: How did you hear about Quote Roller? Why did you decide to try our app?

Raúl: We started to become really slow on our quoting process. My guys were the whole day at their stations instead of being with the customer in meetings. We tested the demo, and it was enough to prove empirically that we were wasting so many time on quoting!!!

Jen: How does Quote Roller help your business?

Raúl: We became fast and responsive again, the way it was when we first started the business back in 2005. In Human Ressources, we went from eight salespeople in the office before to two now. We went from sending an average of eight technical quotes a day to now sending 14.

Jen: What would you tell your friends about Quote Roller?

Raúl: I believe and I use it… as simple as that. Quote Roller was made with love and you can see that. Congrats, guys!
