Weaving Together a Salesforce.

Maharam Sales App

How can a service-based mobile app integrate into an existing workflow, while improving accuracy and efficiency?

Maharam is a leading premium textiles company, for whom great design is practiced both externally, in the textiles it produces, and internally, in the company’s systems and structures. Maharam believes that, to feel empowered, their staff should have access to the same level of design as their clients.

With this expectation, Maharam approached us to develop a new tool for their sales staff, that would allow them to access Maharam’s textile library anytime and anywhere, provide internal performance metrics, and offer ways to track expenses, sample orders, and client notes.

When the original app launched in 2012, it was a unique tool that set Maharam apart from its competitors. This app was bold for its time, requiring vision and very bespoke development to best support the sales team in the early days of the iPad as a mobile productivity platform.

In 2016, Potion partnered with Maharam again to update the app, leveraging user feedback, the maturation of the iOS platform, and the mainstream adoption of tablets to deliver the power and reliability befitting the modern workhorse applications of a sales team.

The result is the Maharam Suite, a set of apps optimized for
the core responsibilities of Maharam’s sales team. Dashboards and visual representations of data provide users with access to data that is easier to interpret than more traditional reports. In addition to improving existing functionality for a more intuitive experience, these apps are built in a more flexible, sustainable fashion that will enable them to keep pace with and help further drive strategic and process innovations at the company.

Working closely with Maharam’s internal technical development team, we integrated the app with their in-house proprietary data set. Providing access to the most current data while users are in the field, allows Maharam’s sales force better understand the needs of their clients and take action in the moment.
