Client Background
Bug and Bear's Kitchen is a custom cookie business handling made-to-order requests from customers. They needed a faster, clearer way to manage orders, quotes, proofs, delivery scheduling, and customer inquiries.
The Problem
Before automation, the client relied on a fully manual process:
-
Customers filled out a form
-
Staff prepared quotes manually
-
Delivery details were discussed through messages
-
Design proofs were created and sent manually
-
Production availability was checked separately
-
Order details (allergens, cookie colors, design references) were collected inconsistently
-
Customers had to wait for responses to basic questions
This resulted in long wait times (up to 2 days), repeated follow-ups, and missed opportunities.
