Where Flann saves you time in Nanonets
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Nanonets is connected.
Updating the price list sheet
Today
When a supplier puts prices up, the change has to reach your price list in Nanonets. Finding every affected row, retyping the figures and checking the margin column is fiddly work, and one slip means selling at a loss for weeks.
With Flann
“The wholesaler email has new dairy prices. Update every milk drink in the Nanonets price list.”
Using the new figures from the email, Flann finds every row in Nanonets that relies on dairy and works out the new cost and margin for each.
What you stop doing: Hunting down every affected row and retyping figures by hand is gone.
Filling in the same template again
Today
Quotes, welcome letters and job sheets all start from the same template in Nanonets. You copy it, rename it and retype the details every time, and an old customer’s name sometimes slips through.
With Flann
“Make a welcome pack for Sarah Okafor from the new member template in Nanonets.”
A fresh copy of your template in Nanonets is filled with the name, start date and membership details you gave, and checked for anything left over from the last person. You see the finished document before it is saved.
What you stop doing: Retyping a customer’s details into a copied template is a thing of the past.
