Automated E-commerce Order Processing & Accounting Sync

20+ hrs/week savedThe Challenge
Modern Bungalow, a premium home goods and furniture retailer specializing in contemporary design, was experiencing rapid growth through their Shopify store. However, their success was creating operational bottlenecks—every order required manual data entry into QuickBooks, customer communications were handled individually, and order fulfillment workflows were completely manual processes consuming entire workdays.
The native Shopify-QuickBooks integration wasn't suited for their sophisticated business model—it created duplicate entries, couldn't handle their custom pricing structures for trade customers, and failed to sync properly during high-volume sales periods. With their focus on quality home furnishings and exceptional customer experience, their team was spending 20+ hours per week on repetitive administrative tasks instead of growing the business and serving customers.
