The client chose Softtek to deploy an end-to-end Digital Sales Services solution after a competitive bidding process. The digital commerce portal, last-mile services, and backend logistics services helped the organization transition from Capex to Opex, lower expenses, and maximize the efficiency of logistics processes.
Softtek’s smart commerce services enabled the client to use five KPIs to evaluate the effectiveness and performance of the portal and customer journey (conversion funnel, journey analysis, product and shopping cart analysis). Softtek also implemented a chat bot for added customer experience benefits.
Softtek implemented an eCommerce platform covering prescriptions, product specifications, medicines, and other requirements of Chilean legislation to sell medicine through digital channels.
Softtek implemented a store selection algorithm integrated with the client’s legacy systems to execute the orders on the eCommerce portal. The service integrates third-party logistics providers selected by the client for last-mile delivery to achieve its goal of delivering merchandise the same day and with a maximum of 2 days difference.
After the first year, the client increased the average ticket value by 20% through up-selling and cross-selling strategies promoted in its eCommerce platform.
Our client was able to expand the number of darks stores to reduce delivery time from 3 hours to only 90 minutes in Chile, making it the fastest pharmacy to deliver in that country.
The client now offers multiple purchase options, such as click and collect, express delivery, and same-day delivery in its Latin American operations.
Our client surpassed its goal of 10,000 eCommerce transactions during the first year, achieving that figure during the first month of operation. It continues increasing the average ticket amount and number of transactions much faster than expected.
After one successful year of Softtek’s Digital Sales Services in Chile, the client asked Softtek to begin a phase two implementation for its digital channels in Mexico.
