How it sells itself

Wholesale Pilot helps Shopify merchants manage B2B wholesale accounts in one place. Import your store list or track tagged wholesale orders automatically. The dashboard shows revenue, AR, and store health at a glance. AI generates personalized email drafts, account briefs, and campaign ideas based on each store's ordering patterns.

SampleLoop attributes paid wholesale orders back to the samples that started them. Add a request form to your storefront. Prospects pick specific product variants you mark eligible, enter their company, email, and shipping address, and submit. Approve a request and a $0 sample draft order (100% discount) appears in Shopify, ready to ship.
