Saddleback: Gearing Up for E-commerce Excellence with OneTimePIM πŸš΄β€β™‚οΈ

The Challenge: Navigating a Data Obstacle Course 🏁

Saddleback, a rising star in elite performance cycling, found themselves facing a steep uphill climb when it came to managing their product data. Their journey was hindered by several obstacles:

  1. Data Scattered Across Systems: πŸ—ΊοΈ Product information was spread out like a complex trail map.

  2. Shopify Site Struggles: πŸ›’ Updating multiple e-commerce platforms became a grueling race against time.

  3. Data Overload: πŸ“Š The sheer volume of information threatened to overwhelm their team.

Anne-Laure Vercollier, eCommerce Data Product Administrator at Saddleback, summed up their predicament: "Before working with OneTimePIM, the sheer amount of data we dealt with on a daily basis became so large it was extremely difficult to handle".

OneTimePIM: The Perfect Riding Partner 🀝

Saddleback sought a PIM system to unify their product data and create a 'single source of truth'. Here's how OneTimePIM helped them shift gears:

  1. Custom Attribute System: πŸ”§ We built a tailored attribute and family system to suit Saddleback's unique needs.

  2. Shopify Integration: πŸ”Œ Our connectors seamlessly linked the PIM to their Shopify stores.

  3. ERP Connection: πŸ”— We established a smooth data flow between the PIM and their ERP system.

Anne-Laure praised the implementation process: "It's never felt as though it was a one-size-fits-all approach. The team customised a service to fit our business model, which has been a key aspect of why the relationship has been so successful".
