The Business

A growing partner ecosystem created a new commerce need.

NITOR is a security technology company focused on physical security and surveillance solutions.

As the company expanded its partner ecosystem and product offerings, it needed a scalable digital commerce experience that enabled partners and customers to purchase products without requiring direct involvement from internal sales teams for every transaction.

The opportunity was to create a Salesforce-based commerce storefront that could support partner-assisted and self-service purchasing, while reducing manual effort and unlocking new revenue channels.

Partners relied on manual processes

Stack Take

The strategic value behind the build.

01

Create a "Last-Mile Commerce Experience"

NITOR identified a gap between product demand and the ease of purchasing. The new commerce experience provides customers and partners with a simple path to purchase without requiring sales intervention.

02

Reduce Cost-to-Serve

Small accessory and replacement purchases previously consumed valuable sales and partner resources. The storefront allows both NITOR and its channel partners to redirect those efforts toward higher-value opportunities.

03

Unlock New Revenue Channels

The self-service storefront enables NITOR to capture revenue that may have otherwise gone to competitors simply because they were easier to buy from online.
