Improved Processing of User-Triggered Emails
WarehouseTWO recently made a significant improvement to how our system processes user-triggered emails.  These emails are "Broadcast Request", "Send Email to Seller" and "Forward via Email".  The improvement is that we no longer "spoof" users' email addresses.  What's "spoofing", you ask?  And why should you care about this change to our system?

Featured Feature:  Bargain Hunt

Replenish your inventory with stock purchased at below distributor standard cost.  It's easy, with BARGAIN HUNT.  Upload a "shopping list" of your most active items, along with a threshold unit cost you're willing to pay.  (For example, 20% below your cost when purchased from your primary supplier.)  BARGAIN HUNT will identify every instance in which another WarehouseTWO member is offering one or more items on your "shopping list" at or below your threshold cost.  Upload a file; save money.  Refer to our BARGAIN HUNT tutorial PDF for details.  Or register for our November 16th (1:00pm EST) thirty-minute training webinar on how to perform a BARGAIN HUNT.
Upcoming Training

Our next round of five different training webinars is scheduled for Wednesday, November 15th and Thursday, November 16th.  Click here for session syllabuses and for links to register for any of these webinars.  Space is limited, so register early!
