Is Crate right for a Beauty and cosmetics business?

Crate is used by Beauty and cosmetics businesses to sell from one catalogue across their own online store, Instagram, WhatsApp and the counter. A Beauty and cosmetics business on Crate lists each product once, with its variants, its photos, its stock and its price in the merchant's own currency, USD or NGN, and every channel then sells that same record. Orders from all of those channels arrive in one Crate queue and stock is drawn down once, so a sale in a chat cannot oversell what is on the shelf. Crate takes the payment methods of the merchant's own market, USSD and pay on delivery included where they apply, and pays out to the business's own bank account. Crate is run from a phone.

The situation this is built for

Where you are now

None of this is unusual. It is what selling in more than one place looks like before there is one system underneath it.

Half your range is not visible anywhere

Only what fits in the last few posts is being sold. A store shows every product, shade and set at once.

Every sale starts with how much is it

The price is in a comment thread somewhere and the answer is retyped all day. A catalog with prices on it answers before you do.

You cannot tell which shade to restock

It sold well is a feeling. Best sellers by units and by revenue is a number, and it decides the reorder.
