Industry: Hot Tub Parts Distribution |
Location: United States |
Team Size: 25
Apps: Zoho CRM, Analytics, Desk, Writer
Executive Summary
Action Spa Parts is a U.S.-based distributor of hot tub parts serving professionals across the country. With 25 employees, the company carries parts for most major hot tub brands and supports service providers nationwide.
After taking ownership of an under-managed operation, CEO Julio Jimenez Solano wanted to professionalize systems and improve efficiency. Zenatta implemented Zoho CRM and integrated it with Distribution One (D1). As a result, the company streamlined lead management, automated pricing validation, and gained clearer reporting insights.
The Challenge
When Julio took over the business, there were very few defined processes. Lead management lacked structure, reporting was limited, and pricing validation required manual oversight. In addition, ERP synchronization between Distribution One and Zoho created operational friction.
The team needed organized workflows, reliable pricing automation, and stronger visibility into performance. Without those systems, growth would remain difficult to manage.
Why It Mattered
Efficiency and visibility are essential in distribution. Sales teams must move quickly, verify inventory, and provide accurate pricing. At the same time, leadership needs clear metrics to identify trends, outliers, and opportunities for improvement.
Therefore, building structured CRM processes and reliable reporting became critical to scaling operations.
The Zenatta Solution
Zenatta built a structured CRM environment and connected it directly to Distribution One through API integrations and client scripting. This created automation around pricing, shipping logic, tax handling, and lead conversion. As a result, Action Spa Parts now operates with a centralized and scalable system.
- Dynamic Pricing Automation: Implemented client scripts and API integrations that validate inventory, calculate pricing in real time, and apply tax logic automatically within Quotes and Sales Orders.
- Structured Lead-to-Account Process: Built a professional registration form that creates Leads, converts them into Accounts and Contacts correctly, and ensures billing and shipping logic remains accurate.
- Shipping & ERP Sync Enhancements: Added custom shipping address logic, D1 customer number synchronization, and workflow automations to improve operational consistency.
- Improved Reporting with Analytics: Enhanced reporting visibility so leadership can track metrics, identify trends, and monitor performance with greater granularity.
“They know the Zoho product suite inside out. They are very professional and won’t waste your time or money. Their experienced consultants truly know how to extract the most value out of the Zoho products.” – Julio Jimenez Solano, CEO/Owner
Results
The improvements delivered measurable operational gains. Most importantly, the team now saves time across the entire lead-to-customer journey. Additionally, reporting improvements allow leadership to make more informed decisions.
- Significant time savings through automation and organized workflows.
- More efficient lead conversion from registration to active customer.

“Everything is done very professionally. I love your portal and how everything is recorded and documented. We definitely get value out of the partnership.”
