The challenge:

Integrity Carpet needed an easier, quicker way to manage and post payments for their complex multi-family projects. When the client would send a check covering flooring jobs for more than 50 different properties, owners Ricardo and Heysi Fuentes would have to painstakingly search for and match each individual project invoice towards the payment.

With the system they were using at the time, the process was incredibly complicated. Something as simple as forgetting to add one invoice required them to start again from scratch, and posting a large payment could take days. Because multi-family customers are an integral part of their business, they needed a more efficient way to match multiple invoices to a single check.

To make matters worse, the flooring software was so difficult to use that sales staff couldn’t even close out jobs, which meant Heysi had to step in and fix things afterward. The system also failed to produce accurate financial statements, and sales reps couldn’t job cost before closing a sale. As a result, proposals were often created without a clear picture of actual costs or margins, overhead expenses like freight were sometimes overlooked, and profit margins suffered.

The solution:

When Integrity Carpet made the jump to QFloors in 2009, Heysi noticed a dramatic difference in freed up time. 

QFloors offers features tailored to the needs of multi-family customers, including the ability to quickly and easily match and apply multiple invoices to a single bulk payment. 

Its intuitive job costing appears directly on the proposal screen, showing all relevant costs, margins, and profit percentages. Sales reps can adjust on the fly with the assurance they are accounting for costs correctly, and getting the margins they need.

Most importantly, QFloors’ user-friendly interface makes it possible for everyone in the company to fully utilize the system. Employees can now close jobs independently, collaborate more efficiently, and easily share information across the company.

The majority of our staff never fully learned how to use the old software, but I can say everybody's now using QFloors correctly.

The results:

Heysi now posts multi-family payments in a few minutes, vs. days, significantly impacting her workload. It went from a 2-3 day project to 2 minutes. It’s so easy now. Click, click, done!

All sales reps now job cost every single proposal before finalizing. Heysi and Ricardo report that this protects their margins, and has raised profits. We are averaging 8-12% sales profits growth, year over year, since incorporating QFloors. Of course some years have been much higher than that, but that is the overall average.

In addition, because everyone in the company is using the software to do their jobs, it has added a greater degree of freedom to owners Heysi and Ricardo. We were recently able to go to Alaska for 7 days. We never would have been able to do that before QFloors!

Heysi’s advice to other flooring dealers considering upgrading to QFloors? Do it. At the end of the day, it's an investment in your business. So just do it. Make that investment.
