Case Study: Leading Merchandising Company achieves $22,000 in scheduling cost savings with Celayix Software

Merchandising Company Saves $22,000 In Scheduling-Related Costs

Leading Merchandising Company, a Virginia-based full-service merchandising firm supporting clients like Kraft and Purina with 100+ employees, struggled to schedule hundreds of part-time representatives across many locations while managing time-and-attendance, payroll, and client billing manually in Excel. They needed automated scheduling, reliable check-in/attendance records, and faster communication to reps—challenges they addressed by implementing Celayix Software’s scheduling and time & attendance solution.

Celayix Software automated shift assignment (autofill and best-fit rules), emailed schedules to reps, provided call-in check-in/out with exact timestamps, offered Find Replacement functionality, and integrated attendance data with QuickBooks and payroll. As a result, scheduling now takes minutes, payroll processing dropped from 1.5 days to minutes, the team saves more than 30 hours per week, client communications improved, and the company realized $22,000 in annual scheduling-related cost savings.
