Q: I noticed Premier’s wholesale website has been upgraded. Why should I use it?
A:
The new wholesale website is like driving around in a modern car with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity rather than riding a skateboard. Here are some new features you and all of our wholesale customers will appreciate:
  1. Full real-time account information including:
      - Account balances: Know all of your specific account info whenever and wherever you want.
      - Invoices: See all of your orders and invoices easily online.
      - Complete transaction information: View all your past orders, payments and invoice. Once you are logged in, all account information including orders placed over the phone, fax, rep, carrier pigeon, or online, will be available on the website. Even if you still prefer an "old school" phone call to your sales representative, your orders, account balance, transaction history, and shipping information will all be conveniently located in one place online.
      - A complete view: Full integration to Premier’s systems allows for full account information such as preferential discounts and terms, ongoing product specials and multiple ship-to locations to seamlessly travel through our processing department directly to shipping.
      - Statement printing: Want to get a hard copy PDF? No problem, just export full up-to-date statements with a single button.
  2. Multiple ways to order online, including:
      - Full featured traditional browsing and filtering results by product features.
      - Speedy ordering by category with information on stock status. Know at a glance what is available, not available, or ready to ship soon.
      - Granular-focused ordering at the item level with comprehensive product descriptions, technical specifications, and quality product photographs with zoom capability. Need more product info? Dive down deep with a click of a cursor and find everything you need.
      - Quick Order by item # and quantity. Use a form for speedy entry, perfect for those who know what they want and want to place that order fast, or upload an Excel file and add the items to your cart.
      - Order from History to quickly add items to your cart from a list of what you ordered in the past.
      - Supply Lists . Keep a list of items you want to purchase in the future.
  3. Real-time inventory information: Clear up-to-date information of which items are in-stock or out-of-stock. This is the big one -- know what we know whenever YOU want. For certain out-of-stock items, availability dates are shown at item level to indicate when the product will be back in stock.
  4. Dealer Support that includes a quick and comprehensive list of product instructions and HD videos. Many products include video clips to show field operation of product. Nothing describes our kites, spinners, and flags better than showing what they do best -- MOVE in the wind! You will also find printable PDF instructions for active and discontinued items.
  5. Real-time automatic shipping status for all orders.
