How Michael Todd Industrial Supply Saved 100 Hours with CustomBooks™ Inventory Accounting

If you've ever spent more time on your accounting books than on actually growing your business, you’re not alone.

Joe Weinstein, General Manager at Michael Todd Industrial Supply, knows this story all too well. Like many growing operations, their team was buried under a pile of manual inventory tasks, double-checking spreadsheets, and chasing down numbers across disconnected systems.

That was before they found CustomBooks™.

“We’ve Probably Cut 80 to 100 Hours of Someone’s Time”

Yes, you read that right.

In a recent interview with our Sales and Business Development Leader, Courtney Jeanette, Joe shared just how impactful CustomBooks’ customized accounting software have been:

“I don't think I'd be exaggerating that we've probably cut 80 to 100 hours of someone's time with the customizations that are in place for that part of our business.”

Imagine what your team could do with 100 more hours a month.

Before CustomBooks™, Michael Todd Industrial Supply was relying heavily on manual processes, especially for things like data entry into inventory and accounting systems. The result? Bottlenecks, errors, and lost productivity.

Why CustomBooks™ Made the Difference

Joe emphasized one major shift that stood out right away: developer collaboration from day one.

“The process has always been pretty smooth. You guys bring developers into the process early on… so they’re hearing firsthand what the requirements are.”

This upfront clarity means fewer meetings, less backtracking, and solutions that actually match how their business runs.

From Spreadsheet Stress to Full Inventory Visibility

If you're still tracking inventory in spreadsheets or toggling between three different platforms to figure out your product costs, you’re wasting time and money.

For Joe and his team, that meant fewer errors, more transparency, and way more time back to focus on customers.

Are You Still Spending Hours in the Books Every Week?

If your gut tells you your inventory system is slowing you down, it probably is.

And if you're guessing at your margins or praying you don’t run out of stock during a busy week, it's time for something better.
