"As a growing startup company, we have run into a number of pain points as we continue to expand. One of the most pressing was a rapidly growing vendor list, resulting in increased employee spending and visibility reduced with more transactions taking place. We worked with Amazon Business to set up a solution in a matter of days that created immediate time and cost savings for our team."
— Adam Cohen, Senior Manager - Finance & Accounting, Mason
2. Streamline the day-to-day running of your business
Simplify account management
Empower your employees to get what they need by adding them to a single account to streamline business purchases. When you add users to your account, they are able to purchase under a single business account with their own user name and password, keeping everyone’s purchases secure while their selection and spend are visible to the account administrator(s)—creating added efficiency and visibility.
Share buying responsibilities with Reorder Lists
Add, organize, sort, and prioritize products that you frequently purchase for your business with Reorder Lists. Save time on business purchases and quickly replenish supplies from these lists, or share lists with others on your account.
Save time with automated workflows
Consolidate purchases and invoices into a digital system to reduce paperwork and the time you spend tracking workflows. With multiple buyers in your account, you can streamline purchases through Amazon Business to easily reconcile expenses and reduce employee expense reports and manual error-prone processes.
“It’s difficult for businesses in Red River to get what they need efficiently, given we’re a few hours from the city. With features such as Business Prime and Reorder Lists, I just keep a list of my commonly purchased items, and in a push of a button anywhere on site, I’m restocked in 2 days without spending hours leafing through catalogs, or worse, driving to and from Albuquerque.”
— Michael Calhoun, Owner, Red River Brewing Company
