The simple CRM for small brands that sell to shops.
Cress keeps every store you sell to in one calm place, tells you who is due for a reorder, and writes the follow-up for you. Made for makers and small brands, not for sales teams.
Free during early access. No credit card, no spam.
Your wholesale business lives in spreadsheets, inboxes and your head.
"When did they last order?"
You dig through emails and old invoices to find out, while the shop quietly fills its shelf with someone else.
"I meant to follow up."
Samples go out, trade shows end, and the follow-up slips because there is always an order to pack first.
"Big CRMs aren't for me."
They are built for sales teams, priced per seat and take weeks to set up. You just want to sell to more shops.
Everything you need to keep shops ordering. Nothing you don't.
No training, no consultants. If you can use email, you can use Cress.
Every shop in one place
Contacts, orders, notes and emails for each store on one page. Finally one answer to "what's going on with them?"
Reorder reminders
Cress learns how often each shop orders and nudges you before they run out, so you are the first call, not the forgotten one.
Works with Shopify
Connect your store and your wholesale orders and customers flow in on their own. No double entry.
Find new shops
Search the map for bookstores, gift shops or boutiques near any city and add the good ones to your list in one click.
Follow-ups written for you
The built-in assistant drafts friendly emails in your voice, using what it knows about each shop. You read, tweak and send.
Your inbox, connected
Send and receive from your own Gmail or Zoho address. Every conversation lands on the right shop automatically.
Up and running before your coffee gets cold.
Bring your shops
Connect Shopify or drop in the spreadsheet you already have. Cress tidies it up and fills in the gaps.
See who needs you
Each morning, one short list: who is due to reorder, who never answered, and which new shops look promising.
Reach out in a click
Review the suggested email, hit send, and get back to making things. Cress keeps track of the rest.
"We built Cress for our own card company, because nothing out there was made for a small brand selling to independent bookstores and gift shops."

Good to know
Who is Cress for?
Small brands and makers who sell their products to independent shops: think cards and stationery, candles, gifts, home goods, food and apparel. If you have between a handful and a few hundred wholesale accounts, Cress is for you.
Do I need to be technical?
Not at all. There is nothing to install and nothing to configure. If you can write an email, you can use Cress.
Do I need Shopify?
No. Shopify makes things automatic, but you can also start from a spreadsheet or add shops by hand.
When can I start?
We are inviting brands from the waitlist in small groups so we can help each one personally. Join now and we will email you when your spot is ready.
What does it cost?
Early access is free. After launch you pay one simple monthly price for your whole company, not per user.
What happens to my data?
It is yours. We never sell it, never email your customers without you, and you can export everything at any time.
Spend less time chasing orders and more time making things.
Join the waitlist and be one of the first brands to try Cress.
