More than just retail software…
Celerant’s partnership with IndiePet provides its members with access to advanced retail software, once available to only tier-1 retailers, at an affordable cost. In addition to innovative retail software, Celerant can help IndiePet members thrive in today’s digital explosion by helping them embrace a complete digital strategy. Celerant’s in-house digital marketing experts provide search engine optimization (SEO) services to help rank retailers’ websites better on Google, along with integrated email marketing, which personalizes emails by pulling live customer and sales data from the retail software.
“Celerant is excited to partner with IndiePet to help independently-owned retailers embrace technology and compete against big-box,” stated Michele Salerno, marketing director of Celerant. “By working with SMB retailers for over 2 decades, we know new technology can be overwhelming for smaller retailers; but given the past couple of years- it’s super important they understand how technology can help them be more competitive. Partnering with IndiePet gives us the opportunity to educate and provide these pet shop owners with the tools they need– so everything becomes much less ominous.”
