Over the coming weeks you will see the Fishbowl brand transition to a new look. The new brand represents a consistent push toward continued success. It seeks to empower companies with simple-to-use, enterprise-grade, affordable inventory management solutions that help businesses grow, prosper, and survive.

The new logo is an interpretation of the Ouroboros symbol. The design’s strength is reflected in its representation of the present and future or the two key aspects of any successful business – manufacturing and warehouse inventory management sides.

“Over the past 20 years of implementing software into businesses, it has always fascinated me that the vast majority of inventory or manufacturing businesses build their internal business systems around an accounting system, instead of building their business around their operational requirements and meeting their client’s needs.” 

“Restaurants don’t run their front counter with Xero or Excel spreadsheets, they use specific POS software …. So why would a stock based business, try to run their business with an accounting system?” READ MORE …

As we looked back on the year that was 2020, one thing that stood out to us and impressed us most, was the number of existing Fishbowl clients that excelled through the turmoil by quickly utilising integrated solutions around their Fishbowl Inventory platform.

At the same time, we were amazed by the number of companies that did not have proper inventory management software in their business, approaching us looking for a better way to run their inventory-based business as they were feeling the disruptive effects the year brought.

Last year has shown us all, things that ….

We are in the midst of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and with the events of 2020 we are seeing a manufacturing environment that we never seen before.

At the Business end of the year you want to be focused on 2 things …

1) Getting orders in,
+
2) Shipping them out the door!

Simple right?

Well, it can be simple and with some of the off the shelf integrations available with Fishbowl, and it is the most efficient use of your time too!

So, what are the options?

Stock outages, what do they mean for your business?

A lost order? Losing a valued customer? Missing a production deadline?

If this happens more than once does this have an even more devastating effect on your business?

Keeping stock on the shelves may seem like a simple task but we hear the pain, frustration, and anguish that these stock outages are causing businesses.

The 2020 travel restrictions have seen many companies looking for ways to make it easier for their customers to place orders, at their convenience, and without needing to see you or your salespeople face-to-face.

We call this your “Silent Salesperson”.

Here are some examples of how you can introduce your very own Silent Salesperson into your business, and see greater sales, happier customers, and a more efficient order process.

Have you just experienced yet another long, painful stocktake?
End of Financial Year is a busy and stressful time of the year. There are so many tasks that need to be completed, and stocktake is often on of those tasks that no one looks forward to.

The good news is that Fishbowl can take away this pain!

Business is simple right? You get an order, and you send it out, piece of cake!
If only it was that simple. Even in the simplest of supply chains there are so many touch points, and each step along the chain requires you or your staff to perform a task.

At Fishbowl we are focused on finding ways to streamline and automate as many of these manual daily tasks as possible to make your business more efficient and more profitable.

it is with great excitement that I personally inform you that Fishbowl Inventory Asia Pacific has acquired SalesIn, with the business transition taking effect as of 1st May, 2020.

SalesIn is a combination of a Sales Rep iOS application and aB2B portal, offering an exciting addition to our existing product suite.
