You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Pulling up the file a customer needs
Today
A customer asks for last year’s warranty certificate and you are scrolling folders in Upload to URL on a small screen. Too many files are called scan, final or copy of final.
With Flann
“Find the warranty certificate for the Patel kitchen job in Upload to URL”
Flann searches Upload to URL by name, date and the text inside each document, not just the file titles. The match arrives in the chat with a note of where it is filed.
What you stop doing: No more digging through badly named folders while a customer waits.
Updating the price list sheet
Today
When a supplier puts prices up, the change has to reach your price list in Upload to URL. 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 Upload to URL price list.”
Using the new figures from the email, Flann finds every row in Upload to URL 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.
