Do you remember the early days of apps? Like iPint, the most downloaded free app for the iPhone in 2008, which let you drink a fake pint of beer on your phone. Or what about the flashlight app that really didn’t work because phones didn’t have a built-in one yet?
Smartphones and apps have definitely come a long way since then! Long gone are the days of fake pint drinking. Everything pretty much has an app now, from fast food restaurants to grocery stores to banking apps. There are also time-sucking apps (looking at you, TikTok), game apps, and tons of productivity apps – but if you’re in the promotional products industry, there’s one in particular you really don’t want to miss out on.
SAGE Mobile is a one-of-a-kind app made by promotional products professionals for promotional products professionals that lets you take your business with you wherever you go. Your information syncs across SAGE Online and SAGE Web for a seamless transition between all of your devices. And it’s already included in your SAGE Total Access subscription.
But why should you download yet another app on your phone, you ask? Because SAGE Mobile is going to be your new best friend and possibly your most used app in 2025.
Here are 6 reasons why:
1. The Virtual Design Studio
The Virtual Design Studio in SAGE Mobile allows you to make virtual samples for your customers on the go. Say you’re in a client’s office discussing a project concept, you can pull out your phone and whip up a virtual sample right in front of their eyes! This not only helps your customer better visualize their final product (ultimately increasing the likelihood they’ll order), but it makes you look pretty impressive too! Plus, we’ve just added a bunch of really cool new features – see the detailed breakdown here.
2. Research Help
Nothing is worse than trying to find that oh-so-very specific product your customer is looking for, and you’ve searched and searched and can’t find it. Luckily, we’re here to help – literally! Our research experts know our database forwards and backward, inside and out, and they can help you find anything, even from your phone!
3. Projects
With SAGE Mobile, you can work pretty much anywhere you have cell service or internet access. That means you can keep an eye on all of your projects, see where they are in the process, or even start a new one, whether you’re at a tradeshow or sitting in the waiting room at your doctor’s office.
4. Order Management
Just like with your projects, you can also manage your orders from wherever you are! So the next time your customer calls with a rush order when you’re out of the office, you don’t have to stress about getting back to get it out in time. From sample orders and purchase orders to customer quotes, invoices, and more, you can keep your business moving without ever skipping a beat.
5. Presentations
You can even create new presentations, edit existing ones, see your customer’s feedback, or create an order form from a presentation – because we did just tell you how easy it is to manage your orders in SAGE Mobile after all.
6. SAGE Mobile at Tradeshows
Not convinced yet? What if we told you that you can also use it at tradeshows? No more scrap pieces of paper with illegible scribbles or carrying around a notebook you’ll probably set down and accidentally leave somewhere; with SAGE Mobile, you can take notes and photos, see the show schedule and floor plan, look up exhibitors, and more, all on your phone! Then, after the show, just email yourself all of the notes and photos you took, or you can also see it all in the tradeshow area in SAGE Online or SAGE Web, making your follow-ups that much easier.
