What changed with Salesfloor

Salesfloor built its name on helping store associates sell beyond the store: outreach to clients, virtual appointments, and tools that connected the store team to online sales. It was sold to large retailers on enterprise terms.

At the time of writing, Salesfloor has been folded into Tulip and its website redirects there. For existing customers that usually means a conversation about contract renewal, product roadmap and migration. For retailers who were evaluating Salesfloor, it means the shortlist has changed.

If you are in either position, it is a good moment to ask a simple question: what do your associates actually need to do every day, and what is the simplest tool that gets them doing it?

What a Clientele associate does each morning

Clientele starts from a ranked list rather than a toolbox. Each associate opens the Money Feed and sees the clients worth contacting today. Every card has a reason (a birthday next week, a wishlist piece back in stock, six months since the last purchase, a new collection that matches the client's history), the opportunity value in dollars and a drafted message in the associate's own voice.

The associate reads the draft, adjusts it if needed and sends it on WhatsApp, SMS or email, only where the client has consent for that channel. Replies come back to one inbox and stay on the client profile. Read more about digital clienteling on WhatsApp.

Pricing you can see first

Boutique costs $99 a month billed yearly for up to 3 associates in one store. Brand costs $299 a month billed yearly for up to 15 associates in 3 stores, with sales attribution and POS connectors. Flagship costs $999 a month billed yearly for up to 50 associates. Enterprise costs $2,499 a month billed yearly and adds SSO, SCIM, data residency and dedicated onboarding. Every plan can be bought with self serve checkout. Monthly billing costs twice the yearly monthly rate.

At the time of writing Salesfloor does not publish prices, so a total cost comparison needs a quote from Tulip.

When Salesfloor or Tulip is the stronger fit

A retailer with hundreds of stores, an IT team, and a need for virtual selling, live video consultations or deep integration with a group e-commerce platform may prefer an enterprise suite with a large services team behind it. If those features are central to your plan, talk to Tulip about what the combined product offers today.

When Clientele is the stronger fit

  • You run one to fifteen stores, or a brand with a few dozen doors, and want associates contacting clients this week.
  • You want to see the price and buy without a sales cycle.
  • Your associates message clients from their phones on WhatsApp and SMS, and consent must be recorded per channel.
  • You want a daily list with reasons and drafted messages rather than a toolbox to explore.
  • You want sales attribution per associate from the first month.

Clientele is clienteling software for that second group. For a side by side with Salesfloor's new owner, see the Tulip clienteling alternative page.

How to compare fairly

  1. Take one store and a few months of real client and sales data.
  2. Ask each vendor what an associate would do with it on a Tuesday morning.
  3. Count how many clients each associate would contact in a week and how long each message takes.
  4. Check how consent is captured and proven for each channel.
  5. Ask for the full yearly cost including implementation and any per store fees.

FAQ

Choosing between Clientele and Salesfloor

Is Salesfloor still a separate product?

At the time of writing salesfloor.net redirects to tulip.com, and Salesfloor has been folded into Tulip. Retailers who used Salesfloor now discuss their contract and roadmap with Tulip.

Is Clientele a Salesfloor alternative for a small boutique?

Yes. Clientele is built so a single store with a few associates can start the same day, from $99 a month billed yearly on the Boutique plan, with self serve checkout and no sales call.

Does Salesfloor publish prices?

At the time of writing there is no public price list. Salesfloor was sold through annual enterprise contracts, and pricing is quote based. Clientele lists every plan and price on its pricing page.

Can we move our client data from Salesfloor to Clientele?

Yes, if you can export it. Clients and purchases come in as CSV on every plan, with matching by email, phone and customer id so repeat uploads update profiles instead of duplicating them. Shopify syncs directly.

Does Clientele have a virtual selling or live chat feature?

Clientele focuses on one to one messaging on WhatsApp, SMS and email from a shared inbox, driven by the daily Money Feed. It does not include live video shopping or website chat widgets. If those are central to your plans, an enterprise suite may suit you better.

How quickly can associates start?

Most stores import a CSV or connect Shopify in an afternoon. Associates see their first Money Feed the next morning on their phones.
