#### Overview
Choozle is an independent, digital advertising company that enables customers through learning, guidance, and self-service digital advertising software.

#### Background
AJ Heffernan has one very ambitious goal: “We don’t want to be the ones who are holding the company back,” said AJ. “We want to plan for Choozle’s continued growth, including everything from new office space, payroll, and accounting systems.”

Choozle has grown its self-service platform that empowers advertising agencies, brands, and publishers to serve highly visible digital advertising campaigns.

### Paystand + NetSuite Unite to Supercharge Choozle’s Operations
With the NetSuite implementation in progress, AJ and his team began working with Paystand to determine how the digital payment network would plug into both Choozle’s internal processes and external customer experiences. Set up took less than 30 days and includes the following capabilities:
- **WHITE LABELING:** White-label customization to create email templates, select a color scheme, and adhere to Choozle’s brand guidelines.
- **SINGLE-CLICK PAYMENTS:** Single-click payments right off the emailed invoice, using Paystand’s embedded “Pay Now” link that leads directly to the payment portal / URL.
- **PAYMENT FLEXIBILITY:** Flexibility in payment methods ranging from the zero-fee Paystand Bank Network, legacy ACH, or credit card with blended wholesale rates to easily forecast costs.
- **AUTOMATED INVOICING:** Automated invoicing and reconciliation via Paystand’s SuiteApp for NetSuite.
- **OPEN INVOICES:** The ability for customers to see all open invoices and pay per line item using Paystand’s “Open Invoices” function.
- **GREATER FORECASTING:** Greater visibility and forecasting using Paystand’s dashboards.

These enhanced functions have opened up new opportunities for Choozle to more efficiently manage their operations. “Now we’re able to check the status of incoming payments and cash flow multiple times daily to see which bills we can pay,” said AJ.

#### Results
The Choozle accounting team has dropped their days sales outstanding (DSO) by ⅓ in 6 months, decreased receivables > 90 days by half, cut their time to close the books by 50%, cut the time it takes to send invoices from 4 to 2 days, and doubled invoice volume without materially doubling the accounting team.
