Karastan
Karastan has been creating some of the world's most
beautiful rugs for almost three-quarters of a century
and enjoys a dual role as leader in both manufacturing
and interior design innovations.
Karastan
needed a secure way to effectively and efficiently
communicate with their four distinct US dealer networks.
Here is some of the information they need to
communicate:
- Price
Lists and Price Tags
-
Merchandising and Display information
-
Marketing and Promotions Calendars
-
General and Special Announcements
-
Current Microsoft Word and Excel Files
Each dealer
"Rep Group" needed it's own site so first we designed a
portal "entry" page. All of the dealers go to
www.repnews.com to log in and select their respective
dashboard. Just like a car dashboard delivers critical
information to the driver (i.e. speed, gear, lights, gas
temperature etc.) Each dealer Dashboard delivers
all the current and important information at a glance.
(i.e. newest documents,
announcements, calendars, links
etc.)
As new
documents, events and announcements are added to the
sites the information is automatically posted to the
dashboards making it easy for the dealers to stay
informed and access files.
SharePoint has
provided Karastan a secure online environment that is
easy to navigate, can be accessed from any computer 24/7
and is almost effortless to maintain and manage. |
