“We saw results immediately after enabling WhatsApp checkout. Thanks to iPaper and our weekly social media push, we’ve increased catalog readers by 18%."

Digital Manager

With a direct selling network of more than 185,000 passionate consultants across five countries, Stanhome distributes a unique selection of home, family and beauty products.

Challenge:

Stanhome, like most direct selling companies, has long relied on catalogs to showcase its huge range of products to customers.

Traditionally customers could flick through the catalog and call up their local sales rep to order their desired products. But Stanhome's audience was growing ever more digital and demanded a mobile-first shopping experience. 

Solution:

With iPaper Flipbooks, Stanhome has created mobile-first shoppable catalogs. Customers can now add products to their in-catalog basket as they browse. Then, when ready to checkout, they can send that basket to their local sales rep over WhatsApp.   

Since offering this new catalog journey designed to suit it's social media audience, Stanhome has completely transformed its customer journey.

However, iPaper has not only transformed Stanhome's shopper's journey, but the way its sales force works too. Reps can now efficiently receive orders over WhatsApp and process them on the go. 

We really enjoy working with iPaper. Our customers love it, our sales force loves it and we do too!"
