3 Ways to Unlock More Value from Pepperi

Pepperi is packed with features designed to make your sales operations smarter, faster, and more connected. But many users only scratch the surface of what’s possible. Our unified B2B eCommerce platform offers powerful features that can improve communication, increase sales opportunities, and make day-to-day processes more efficient.

Let’s take a closer look at three ways you can maximize Pepperi’s powerful features.

1. Stay Connected with Push Notifications

With Pepperi’s Message Center, you can send push notifications directly to your sales reps or B2B buyers, keeping everyone informed and empowered to act immediately.

Use cases include:

  • Alerting reps to new account assignments.
  • Reminding eyewear reps to manage frame boards.
  • Notifying buyers about promotions or new product launches.

Ways to send:

  1. From the back office via the Message Center.
  2. Through automated workflow actions.
  3. Using the Pepperi API for event-driven notifications.

Pro Tip: Ask users to name their devices in settings. It makes device lists easier to manage when sending messages.

2. Recover Lost Sales with Abandoned Cart Reports

Ever wonder which buyers start an order but don’t check out? Pepperi makes it easy to spot abandoned carts and give sales teams a chance to follow up.

Build your report in a few steps:

  1. Create a new Activity List in Admin Settings.
  2. Add filters: Sales Order type, “In Creation” status, and cart totals greater than zero.
  3. Design your view with key fields like account name, creation date, order value, and rep.
  4. Enable Smart Search and Totals to track abandoned cart value across your team.

Pro Tip: Share this report with managers for real-time visibility so reps can proactively recover lost sales opportunities.

Pepperi’s Related Items feature helps your sales team recommend the right products at the right time. Whether it’s upselling accessories, suggesting complementary items, or reminding customers to restock, this tool makes cross-selling effortless.

How it works:

  • Define item relationships in Settings > Items > Related Items.
  • Create relationship types like upsell, cross-sell, or replenishment.
  • Assign related products to display in a carousel on the Item Details page.
  • Upload in bulk via CSV—or better, integrate directly from your ERP for real-time sync.

Pro Tip: For large catalogs, ERP integration saves time and prevents errors by keeping product relationships automatically up to date.

Smarter B2B eCommerce Starts Here

Pepperi goes beyond being a standard B2B sales platform, offering a toolkit that helps you sell smarter, serve customers better, and run your operations with greater efficiency. By making the most of features like push notifications, abandoned cart reports, and related items, you can create a more connected sales experience and capture opportunities that might otherwise slip through the cracks.

Distribution & 3PL review panel

Articles on wholesale ERP, 3PL operations, and warehouse management are reviewed by the DDI System (inFORM ERP), Distribution One (ERP-ONE+), and VeraCore teams — the platforms running specialty wholesale and fulfillment operations across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fasteners, JanSan, and 3PL verticals.

Editorial standards

Fact-checking & editorial guidelines

Every article on advantive.com is written and reviewed against an internal accuracy standard before publication. Here's what that means in practice.

  • Product claims are verified by the brand team that owns the platform.

    When an article references InfinityQS, WinSPC, PQ Systems, Pinpoint, ParityFactory, ProPlanner, KiwiPlan, DDI System, VeraCore, or any of Advantive's other specialty platforms, the relevant product team checks technical statements about features, deployment, and current capability before the article goes live.

  • External statistics cite their source inline.

    When an article references industry survey results, regulatory benchmarks, or third-party research, the source is linked at the point of citation. Statements without an inline source link are first-party observations drawn from Advantive's product teams or customer base.

  • Publication and revision dates stay visible.

    The original publication date and the most recent revision date are both shown on every article. Topics that change quickly — AI capabilities, regulatory rules, product roadmaps — are revisited on a tighter cadence than evergreen reference content.

  • Corrections are issued openly.

    If a factual error is reported, the article is updated, the revision date advances, and material corrections are noted at the bottom of the article so readers can see what changed and when.
