How many of these problems happen in your store?
When dowry season, wholesale accounts and storefront questions all land on the same counter, every list written on paper becomes a risk.
The dowry list lives on paper
The dowry process with a family runs for months on handwritten lists; items added, removed and repriced end up on different sheets. On delivery day, the “it was on this list, we never discussed that” argument overshadows the store’s biggest sale.
Instagram questions go unanswered
Posts of the storefront and new collections fill up with “price?” and “can I buy just one?” comments, and the DM inbox piles up too. Every question left unanswered while the store is busy is a customer who orders the same set online.
Wholesale prices mix with retail
Wholesale prices quoted to a café and the retail price on the tag sometimes get mixed up; who got which discount, and what price was quoted last month, are kept in someone's head. A wrong price both costs you profit and kills your negotiating room with the wholesale customer.
The dowry deposit was taken, the balance was forgotten
On large dowry sales, a deposit is taken and the rest is collected close to the wedding; but who paid how much sits in the corner of an appointment book. On delivery day the balance is worked out all over again, and the happiest purchase ends in negotiation tension.
A best-selling set quietly sells out
The season’s hit dinner set or glassware line runs out without anyone noticing, and customers who ask are told “it’ll be in next week.” Because the order to the supplier goes in late, the busiest weeks of the season pass with empty shelves.
Seasonal campaigns can’t be announced
Ramadan, wedding season and New Year campaigns are announced only with a storefront poster. With no list of the customers who asked about dowries before or got a price and hesitated, there’s no way to reach them exactly when they’re ready to buy.
What does ÖzgürKod do for housewares stores?
It turns a dowry consultation into a quote, a wholesale account into a price list and a storefront question into a recorded customer; the pace of the season is managed in one place.
From a showroom question to trousseau delivery, the sales journey
- Run the dowry request on the customer card: turn the selected items into a PDF quote and update it as Revised when the customer asks for changes; add the consultation appointment to Google Calendar
- Track the deposit and remaining balance with installment payment tracking; keep the pre-wedding payment plan on the card and let AI detect the bank transfer receipt
- Set up separate wholesale price lists for café, restaurant and hotel customers; keep on the card who was quoted which price, so the negotiation history is never forgotten
- Reply automatically to price questions in Instagram comments with comment automation; close DM and WhatsApp questions in a single inbox with quick reply templates
- Track dinner set, glassware and cookware lines in the product catalog; let the critical stock alert tell you before a best-selling line runs out, and place orders from the supplier card
- Send Ramadan, wedding season and New Year campaigns as segment-targeted WhatsApp campaigns: target dowry inquirers, wholesale accounts and past customers separately
A product question that comes in through an Instagram comment, DM or WhatsApp turns into a customer record with a source tag; comment automation replies to anyone asking for a price by DM.
Set contents, quantities and prices go out with quick reply templates; stock is checked in the catalog, and outside business hours the chatbot sends the first reply.
A time is booked for the trousseau request from the online appointment page; the appointment syncs both ways with Google Calendar, so the family does not wait in the store.
The selected items become a PDF quote; added and removed products are tracked with the Revised status, so the final list is always single and in writing.
The deposit on an approved quote is entered into installment payment tracking; the remaining balance and collection date show on the record, and AI captures the receipt.
A supplier order is created for missing items; when the set is ready, the customer is notified with one click using a Meta-approved template.
Segment-targeted campaigns run for wedding season, Ramadan and New Year, and the trousseau customer comes back for every need in their home over the years.

What should you look for when choosing a CRM for Housewares?
Before you decide, evaluate your candidates against these 5 criteria.
5 criteria
- A module ready for your industry. Instead of adapting a generic CRM for months Housewares choose a system that is ready on day one for your workflow (record fields, tags, reminder templates).
- WhatsApp and Instagram integration. In Turkey customer most communication comes through WhatsApp and Instagram; a CRM that does not offer a unified inbox through the official API leaves half the work outside.
- Automatic reminders and follow-up. Appointment, payment and repeat reminders should live in the system, not in memory; every missed reminder is lost revenue.
- Turkish-language support and TL pricing. Dollar-based foreign tools carry exchange rate risk and an English-only support barrier; TL pricing and Turkish-language setup support make total cost predictable.
- Free trial and cancellation without commitment. Try it with your own data before you decide: choose a solution that requires no credit card, offers at least a 7-day free trial and can be canceled whenever you want.

How does a CRM help housewares stores?
Housewares has three separate sales rhythms: daily showroom sales, a trousseau process that lasts for months, and regular wholesale accounts. A CRM makes the last two visible and feeds the first. Trousseau consultations run on the customer record with quotes and appointments; wholesale customers have their price list and balance on file; every question that comes in from Instagram and WhatsApp turns into a recorded lead. Who asked about a trousseau, whose quote is pending, which café is late with payment — you track it all from one screen.
How do I manage trousseau set requests?
A trousseau consultation starts on the customer record: the items discussed with the family are listed and turned into a PDF quote. As the list changes, the quote is updated with the Revised status, so the “we removed that, we added this” argument is over because the final list is always in writing. Once it is approved, the deposit is entered into installment payment tracking and the remaining balance is planned around the wedding date. Consultation appointments are booked from the online appointment page and sync both ways with your Google Calendar; you read a process that lasts for months from a single record.
Can I keep wholesale and retail prices separate?
Yes. In the product catalog you define multiple price lists: the retail shelf price and the wholesale prices applied to cafés, restaurants and hotels are kept separate. Wholesale customers are grouped in their own segment; which list applies to whom, along with past negotiation notes, is recorded on the customer record. So even if the staff at the counter changes, a wholesale customer is never given the wrong price. Payments for wholesale orders are tracked in installments by due date; overdue balances stand out on the dashboard, and the payment collection report sums up the month.
How do I keep up with price questions coming from Instagram?
Comment automation works on Instagram and Facebook: anyone who comments “price” under a post gets an automatic DM, and the person asking becomes a lead recorded on the dashboard. DMs, WhatsApp and Web Chat messages are gathered in a single inbox; set contents, quantities and prices are sent in seconds with quick reply templates. Outside business hours the chatbot sends the first reply, tags serious requests and leaves them for the morning. Because AI classifies the people asking for prices, no question is left unanswered at the end of the day.
Does the system send seasonal campaigns automatically?
No, let's be honest: the system does not start campaigns on its own, and there is no scheduled automatic sending feature. You prepare the campaign, select the audience by segment, tag, source or last contact date, and you start the send. During sending the system takes over the work: a Meta-approved template is used, rate control paces the send gradually, duplicate blocking prevents a second message to the same person, and if the error rate rises the campaign pauses automatically. The results report shows how many people were reached and how many replies came back.
Is there barcode, POS or cash register integration?
No; there is no integration with barcode scanners, POS systems or cash registers — let's say that clearly. ÖzgürKod is not checkout software; it is the order–customer–communication layer. You define sets and series with their categories in your own product catalog; sales are recorded as stock movements, the critical stock alert tells you about a best-selling series before it runs out, and supplier records and delivery note records are on the dashboard. Your daily sales flow at the register carries on as before; ÖzgürKod is the side that remembers the trousseau, the wholesale account and the customer who asked.
Housewares software and CRM the same thing? Which one is ÖzgürKod?
In practice they describe the same need. Businesses usually search for "Housewares software", "Housewares software", "Housewares inventory and sales tracking software“ or “customer management software”; “CRM” is this solution is the international name. ÖzgürKod delivers all of these names on one platform: customer communication, appointments, quotes and orders, payment collection and reporting are all in one place. So whatever term you search with, the solution you reach is the same; you don’t need to set up separate software.
