OFM Kicks Off 2015 With New Mobile Site

2015/2015.0126.Tech.OFM .MobileWebsite2.full.jpg
1.19.15 | Holly Springs, NC | OFM, a leading office and school furniture manufacturer, distributor, and wholesaler, announced today it is kicking off 2015 with a new and improved mobile site that will help its customers more easily sell OFM products while on the road. The new business-to-business site allows furniture sales people to do everything from search specs on OFM products, to watch a video on how to assemble a given item, to check a particular order status right from their smart phones.

“For sales people, a smart phone is a powerful tool,” said Blake Zalcberg, chief executive officer of OFM. “With our new mobile site, it works almost anywhere, allows them to show our entire lineup with ease, and is automatically updated regularly. It literally puts all of OFM’s products in the palm of their hand.”

As a furniture wholesaler, OFM does not sell directly to the public, but it does sell the chairs, desks, storage units, and other office furniture that it designs and makes to retailers throughout the country. Zalcberg said that the new mobile site will help OFM keep a competitive advantage in those crucial times when sales people are meeting with clients on the road and don’t have access to their computer.

The new mobile site includes easy-to-use search features to find each piece of furniture OFM sells, such as detailed spec sheets and assembly instructions, and short instructional videos on assembly, as well as order tracking, all designed for use on a smart phone. OFM’s goal is to feature as much information and functionality on the new mobile site as its main non-mobile website version.

“Sales people have always been on the road a lot,” added Zalcberg. “It’s only natural that we would make it easier for them to carry, right in the palms of their hands, all the information they would need about our products when they’re meeting with clients.”
