It isn’t about shiny new graphics or “facelift” solutions so much as digging deep and really exploring the questions, “How does this offer business value? How does this offer customer value?” Instead, it shows us an example of one particular business—in this case, Bulk Candy Store—and highlights the right solutions for that business while following a path of logic that lets any ecommerce seller ask the right questions to find the focus and solutions tailored specifically to their business based on their particular needs. 

Here is the list of products, platforms, and services that Bulk Candy Store trials throughout their makeover, offering feedback each step of the way about what really worked for them and made a difference, what didn’t, and what they believe will in the future.

ShipStation’s Episode Of Jamersan’s “Ecommerce Makeover” Video Series

Our role in Bulk Candy Store’s transformation is an important one. With ShipStation, they’re able to modernize their shipping workflow with shipping automations, branded tracking, and easy platform integrations. 

Since they migrated to the BigCommerce platform earlier in the series, integrating ShipStation was as simple as installing and linking it with BigCommerce. They were very grateful to have an integrations expert they could contact directly for months nevertheless to clear up any questions that cropped up. 

Promising functions for Bulk Candy Store also included shipping automation that allows for order filtering based on prerequisites such as heat-sensitive items to the pickers and packers can see which boxes require an ice pack and which need quick shipping.

Among the most beneficial and time-saving functions of ShipStation for Bulk Candy Store is our existence as a SaaS rather than a standalone software. With their prior service, they were limited to computers that had the software installed and, even then, struggled often with updates so that the machines in the warehouse would play nice together, causing substantial delays. With ShipStation, company users can login from anywhere and retrieve the information they need, even an office computer well away from the shipping area. They are no longer confined to a single space and never have to worry about losing time to updates.
