Overview

The Paint Bucket uses Decor Fusion to achieve greater efficiencies across a number of areas of its business. Since implementing Decor Fusion, The Paint Bucket has reduced the time required to train new employees, has made more informed and strategic business decisions through the use of advanced analytics, and has used automation to significantly reduced a number of human error-related issues. All of these and more have helped The Paint Bucket streamline its operations and achieve greater profitability.

“Decor Fusion makes my business more efficient and profitable. The integrated COLOR®x and Decor Fusion feature considerably reduces human error and the time needed to train new employees. Having purchasing and receivable features in our POS system adds more efficiency. And the ability to forecast sales helps us plan our purchasing so we can earn manufacturer discounts. All of this goes right to our bottom line. Decor Fusion is well worth the investment.”

Tom Martin, Owner, The Paint Bucket, ThePaintBucketVa.com

Paint Tinting Automations

For The Paint Bucket, a key attribute of the Decor Fusion software is how the software creates a tint-per-transaction code, which is then assigned to a customer profile. Most paint and decor POS systems require manual input of tint information every time, which often results in human error, mis-tints, and wasted time, energy and resources for you and your customers. With Decor Fusion’s tint-per-transaction coding, The Paint Bucket completes re-orders with the click of a button and with no need for manual input, practically eliminating human error, and increasing consistency, efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Intuitive and Easy to Use

For The Paint Bucket, having automations for tinting paint and hundreds of other items goes directly to the heart of their employees’ experiences. Many workflows within the software can be completed within a few mouse clicks, allowing employees to learn numerous tasks quickly and easily. The intuitiveness of the software, combined with its various automations, result in fewer mistakes being made, which helps new employees quickly gain confidence, and dramatically reduces their learning curve, making them more profitable for the business, more quickly. Since implementing Decor Fusion, The Paint Bucket has reduced its employee training time from several months to about two weeks.

Reporting

Decor Fusion’s reporting features have helped The Paint Bucket be more strategic when it comes to purchasing inventory, which has had a great impact on the bottom line. Decor Fusion’s reporting features allows The Paint Bucket to pull key information that helps the company make important decisions about inventory. The Paint Bucket uses Decor Fusion’s reporting features to forecast sales for periods of several months. Based on this information, The Paint Bucket can accurately predict what inventory it will need for a given period, and can then place larger purchase orders with its suppliers, earning manufacturer discounts, and growing margins without raising prices.

Industry Partnerships

As a Benjamin Moore retailer, The Paint Bucket needs to be able to quickly implement into its POS system any product information or pricing updates from Benjamin Moore. Through Decor Fusion’s electronic data interchange with Benjamin Moore’s systems, changes made by Benjamin Moore are automatically updated in the POS, and crucially, also in The Paint Bucket’s customer profiles. These automated updates have helped The Paint Bucket improve the accuracy of its re-order fulfillment, which has helped the company increase customer satisfaction and loyalty.
