## What Volty does with Broadlume

Broadlume makes the websites, POS and ERP and marketing software that flooring retailers run their showrooms on. Which Broadlume data Volty can use depends on the products your store runs, so our team scopes the connection with you and Broadlume before building it. Shoppers ask about a product or book a measure on your web chat or Facebook, and customers with an order ask when it arrives and when the install is.

- A measure appointment · Two or three open estimator times are offered as buttons, and the shopper taps one.
- Swatches and products · Volty answers species, wear layer and width questions and notes which swatches to bring.
- When does it install · Material received and the install date are read from the customer's order.
- Quotes to sales · A whole-house quote with stairs or subfloor work goes to the salesperson you name.

## Common questions

### Which Broadlume products can Volty work with?

That depends on what your store runs. Broadlume publishes API documentation for its Flooring and Accounting Software, and B2B access is authorized through a Broadlume form. Our team checks your setup with you first, then builds a custom connection to the parts that hold orders and schedules, and an admin approves it in Volty.

### Can shoppers book an in-home measure from Facebook?

Yes, if your schedule is part of the connection and you switch the booking tool on. Volty offers open estimator times in Messenger or web chat and books the one the shopper picks. On Check with staff, a salesperson confirms each booking before it goes on the schedule.

### Will customers get a reminder before the install crew arrives?

Yes. An afternoon automation reads the next day's installs and sends each customer an approved WhatsApp template with the arrival window. Questions about moving furniture, pets or parking go to the installer or the store.

### How much does it cost to connect Broadlume with Volty?

Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
