One of my duties as a school administrator is ordering classroom supplies for several schools.  For the sake of efficiency I try to limit the number of orders I place during the year, but sometimes we just run out of one thing or another, and it can’t be helped – I have to make up an extra order.  But anything that helps me save time doing it, I appreciate. One of our online school supply stores has a feature that lets me order by just typing in catalog item numbers and quantities and clicking a button.  It’s really quick and convenient. 

As a discount school supply, they also offer a lowest price guarantee, and what’s more, they let us defer payment; we have a line of credit that is interest-free.  That’s proved to be really handy on more than one occasion.  Also, their policy is to ship within one business day, and in the event that we need to return anything, they make it easy for us. I like doing business with them because they take customer service seriously.  I wish all our suppliers were like that; it would certainly make my job a lot easier and less stressful.
