These devices enable them to present <strong>digital catalogues<\/strong> with images of new products, as well as recipes or videos about the product\u2019s origin and production processes \u2013 helping to convey authenticity and health safety assurances.<\/p>\n<p>Tablets and smartphones also make it possible to <strong>manage items provided on loan<\/strong> (such as coffee machines), with up-to-date lists of all equipment installed at each customer\u2019s premises, along with their history: installation dates, maintenance interventions, inspections, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to <strong>paperless solutions<\/strong>, documents can be signed directly on screen or captured via photo with stamp and signature. This allows companies to significantly reduce \u2013 or even eliminate \u2013 the use of paper, while benefiting from all the advantages of electronic document management (delivery notes, sales slips, invoices), in full compliance with legal requirements.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-36585\" src=\"https:\/\/aton.com\/media\/ecommerce-B2B.jpg\" alt=\"Ecommerce B2B on Sales Aton\" width=\"100%\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The benefits of modern van sales<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The introduction of a paperless solution for managing van sales processes has brought significant benefits to companies like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arborea1956.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Arborea<\/strong><\/a>.
