Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

What metrics is BrightPearl by Sage going to improve for my Ecommerce store?

They really help at tying together marketing and product to help you make better business decisions.

Who has to manage BrightPearl by Sage and how long does it take to setup?

Typically there are 3 decisionmakers coming into demo and sales calls with BrightPearl reps. Often it’s the operations, product management / logistics, and sometimes the CEO/founder or COO. You’re often going to take a few weeks to compare options and decide on BrightPearl within about 60 days. 

It takes about 3-4 months to fully onboard BrightPearl: working with their team to get your team fully up to speed with the software, changing systems and processes within the organization, integrating all the required data sources, and setting up all the rules and automation, reporting etc. Any time there is a slowdown, it is typically on the merchant for approvals, showing up to meetings, completing training, etc.

Once fully onboarded, your operations and fulfillment teams will be in BrightPearl daily. You can separate out different functionality and features for different users based on how they are expected to interact with BrightPearl. For example, maybe some people are buyers and don’t need access to orders, etc.

Is BrightPearl by Sage right for my store?

The key reason to use BrightPearl by Sage is when you’re selling in multiple different places and trying to track all that inventory in one place. So maybe you’re on Shopify, Amazon, and Walmart and trying to figure out how much inventory you actually have left and when you should be placing your next purchase order with your supplier.

The more complex your operations, the more you need an inventory management solution. BrightPearl works best for fashion and apparel, and can be for all sorts of brands, including those that have a 3PL, have their own warehouse, are dropshipping, or some mix thereof. It’s largely about helping to manage your inventory levels across multiple channels, making sure that 

They don’t currently track individual products or lot products, which makes them less ideal for brands that have expiration dates or those that need to track a product back to an entire batch or lot.
