FWRD's History in The Making

Frances Blackie, the director of FWRD, has been a Zoho Partner for 12 years. Her background in real estate and fashion perfectly blends with her experience and passion for sales and marketing.

Over the years, the partnership has strengthened as both businesses have changed beyond recognition from the early days. The combination of Frances' business consulting skills and experienced development team, plus Zoho's market leading software has yielded a considerable return on investment (ROI) for FWRD's clients. This was documented by one of FWRD's customers who has been most committed to automating their business.

Implementing Zoho Creator with FWRD has allowed us to reduce the number of staff who process orders and invoices. In total, the ROI on implementing this will be under 18 months and has greatly improved the operational efficiency of the business.

Working with FWRD has changed our mindset to focusing on automation and efficiencies when we build out new processes. Zoho continues to surprise with its broad range of tools and apps.

Whilst businesses get hung up on the initial investment required for a companywide software implementation, what they should be focused on is how quickly they can expect a return for their investment.

If your business continues to invest in people to push buttons and repeat manual processes over and over, you will never achieve a real ROI as you will always be required to pay costly wages month after month. With a software implementation, once the initial investment has been covered by the efficiencies created in the business, everything on top of that is clear profit.

FWRD's customer Energenie were committed to this logic and have been pleasantly surprised to have achieved a return on their investment in under 18 months despite the significant upfront investment they made against a large-scale, business- wide software implementation.
