Benefits of technology

The patent describes a system that can track user preferences and suggest items to them based on popularity levels. For example, if a user selects an item, the system can generate a notification to the supplier or decorator to increase inventory of materials for the user's selected item. In summary, the system uses data from multiple websites to predict what items will be popular and helps users find the best options for their preferences.

Problems solved by technology

In general, the creation of two invoices can create confusion for a company that is only receiving ordering one type of promotional product.
Additionally, the bifurcated process of buying raw materials from a supplier and shipping the raw materials to a decorator for product finalization can result in the poor tracking of the fulfillment process.
Additionally, without a comprehensive tracking system, the capture of data relating to the procurement of promotional products cannot occur.
Additionally, the creation of images for promotional products is often a laborious effort.
By engaging a professional graphic artists or other consulting company, the process for procuring promotional products is further complicated and made more expensive.
