Lewisville, TX, December 4, 2002 — OrderDog, Inc., a technology services company that provides secure Web-based third party business-to-business solutions to the natural products industry has produced a sales video to further educate retailers and manufacturers on their streamlined ordering system.
“The one idea we want viewers to take away from this video is how simple it is to use the OrderDog system,” stated Darrin Peterson, president of OrderDog. “We know that when potential customers view our process and see how streamlined it really is, nine out of ten people see the benefits of our service and signup with OrderDog.”
This sales video takes place in a retail store setting and is designed to teach strategies, principals and tools to successfully deal with OrderDog technology. More than half of OrderDog sales efforts focus on educating the end user about the product and this video is another avenue that OrderDog has taken to further educate their customer. The more that retailers and manufacturers are familiar with all of the benefits that the OrderDog system offers, the better it will work for them, their employees and their stores.
By using the OrderDog.com scan-based online service, retailers are directly connected with manufacturers and distributors around the clock allowing them to electronically catalog and purchase product, streamlining the entire ordering process. The OrderDog system permits the end user to easily monitor and track order status, avoid inventory out-of-stocks and receive updated email notifications while providing access to a real time customer support center to answer any questions along the way.
Companies see the most significant benefit of the OrderDog service in the time saved when processing orders and in the ability to take advantage of product specials and discounts. The ordering program allows customers the ability to scan the entire store at one time.

Purchase orders are then compiled according to buying preferences established by the retailer. The ordering program also provides the retailer the ability to view their invoice before receiving the shipment, see detailed product information including product specials and featured items as well as search for new products.
OrderDog currently has over 300 natural food stores using the system and is rapidly growing. Along with in-depth, hands-on training for buyers and managers, OrderDog provides a free computer with one year of Internet service. Stores interested in the OrderDog system can join for a monthly fee $59.00 if they have their own computer with internet access, or $99.00 a month for the service, a free Gateway computer and one year of Internet access via American Online.
The sales video closes with testimonials from several retailers and distributors including Clark’s Nutrition, Lassen’s Health Food, Nature’s Best and Tree of Life, relating their success stories with the OrderDog system.
