How RBX Active Saves 30 Hours Per Week Using StoreAutomator’s Multichannel Solution

StoreAutomator Case Study

Multichannel selling is a practical strategy for expanding a brand's market visibility, generating new growth opportunities, and establishing sustainable sources of revenue. However, while more and more companies are beginning to recognize the business value of a multichannel selling strategy, deciding the right way to execute it isn't always easy.

The last decade has presented equal opportunities and challenges for all brands operating in the e-commerce space. Even before the COVID-19 disruptions for in-store and online businesses, migrating to a multichannel selling solution while streamlining operations successfully and managing costs was less of a skill set and more of an art form. These statements couldn't be valid for one activewear brand headquartered in New York, NY: RBX Active.

How RBX Active faced these opportunities and challenges head-on and eventually partnered with StoreAutomator to help them streamline operations and maximize efficiency when executing their multi-channel fulfillment strategy.

Getting To Know The Company

Beginning their journey over a decade ago, RBX Active's founders had a vision and mission to take a children's activewear sub-brand and evolve it into a well-recognized, full-blown active lifestyle brand. Inspired by the desire to provide communities with the information and tools they need to live happier and healthier lives, RBX Active now produces and sells fashionable, practical, and inclusive fitness essentials and accessories for a wide range of consumers.

"Our company mission is to make fitness and a healthy lifestyle accessible to everyone. We provide quality activewear and related products at affordable prices that allow everyone to Live Life Active!" - Adam Hanan, Director of Retail and E-commerce - RBX Active.

Identifying New Challenges

RBX Active's mission of making its brand more accessible to a broader demographic hasn't been met without a certain level of operational and logistics challenges. As an athletic apparel brand with a quickly expanding assortment of products, scaling into a multichannel selling format requires the right tools and solutions.

"We are always trying to streamline operations and efficiency while we continue to push growth," says Adam H.

"Technology and automation are always a huge help in this area. As well as flexible reporting tools to give us better visibility into trends and what is working vs. what isn't."

However, as many businesses in the online space quickly realize, RBX Active discovered that there is no shortage of solutions available that promise scalable ways to manage multichannel strategy but fall short when it comes to adequate service levels.

"We knew we wanted a multichannel management platform, but competitive offerings were either too expensive, too complicated, or lacked features," says Adam H.

For any business looking to successfully sell online in today's eCommerce landscape, finding the right balance of listing management automation, business intelligence, visibility, and control is critical. 

So, how did RBX Active get past this operational hurdle?

Finding the Right Solution

There is no shortage of multichannel solutions available to businesses today, but without the proper functionality and support, the value of these paid solutions quickly diminishes. 

After being disappointed by the lack of support, personalized onboarding approach, and overall business results when dealing with some of the larger multichannel solutions providers, RBX Active decided to contact StoreAutomator.

Utilizing a highly scalable and flexible multichannel management solution, StoreAutomator presented RBX Active with precisely what they needed to scale their eCommerce presence the way "they" wanted and for a sustainable price.

"Store Automator gave us the functionality we wanted at a fixed cost we could handle, and that would allow us to grow," says Adam H.

"We switched to the StoreAutomator platform just before the start of the pandemic...The support we received was amazing. We truly felt that the StoreAutomator team valued the health of our business as much as we did."

"We are using Store Automator to build and list items on multiple channels, including Amazon and Shopify, as well as order and inventory management. We also utilize the Store Automator API to facilitate custom BI Dashboards and reporting."
