Introduction

In 2024, OPTI undertook the challenge of implementing a B2B affiliate portal for a retail e-commerce company.

The primary goal was to enhance the user experience for business clients while simultaneously increasing sales volume and providing support for traditional individual customers.

The new portal needed to integrate various promotional activities, manage different user groups, and streamline account management to cater to both business and regular customers.

Challenges

The project presented several obstacles such as:

The platform was to offer personalized promotions that resonated with both business clients and traditional customers.

A dedicated account management system was needed to meet the specific needs of business clients.

The solution required a communication module for managing notifications and marketing materials.

The portal needed to provide access to account management functionalities, such as order history, invoices, and logistics management.

There was a need to implement a monitoring and analytics system to track the performance of the new portal and make data-driven decisions.
