How it sells itself

Draftmate allows you to easily create a resend schedule for draft orders that have been sent to customers but have not been completed yet. You can configure a series of steps to take after the initial draft order is sent such as waiting for an x number of hours before resending the draft order with a discount to entice the customer to complete the draft order.

OrderCadence helps Shopify B2B merchants automate standing orders without rebuilding them each week or month. Select a company location, products and quantities, then schedule weekly, every-two-week or monthly runs. Create drafts for review or normal unpaid orders using Shopify payment terms.
