Challenge
BetterYou, a UK-based vitamin and supplement company, has a philosophy of prioritising health and innovation through unique delivery methods like oral sprays and transdermal magnesium. As the company expanded its reach in both the domestic and overseas markets the IT infrastructure became outdated and hindered its efficiency.
As Louise Sprawling, Head of People and Culture at BetterYou, explains, “Our systems were described as archaic by our team and weren’t being used to their full potential. Staff were frustrated and often relied on others for tasks they could have handled themselves, if they had the right tools and training.”
