RC Pro Zone
Success Story
Discover how RC Pro Zone — a specialty RC performance products retailer — switched from a more expensive competitor to PayHelm and finally got the profit reporting and part-number tracking their business needed.
"We recently switched our business to PayHelm after disappointing results from a more expensive competitor. PayHelm's program was easy to use and any questions I had were answered quickly via help chat or email. PayHelm even updated their program to fit our need for end-of-month profit reporting and part number listings. If you're not using PayHelm you should be — this is the best program I have used for our monthly accounting needs."
The Challenge
RC Pro Zone sells performance RC car parts across categories including drag racing, carpet oval, and on-road. Managing a catalog of 80+ products and generating accurate end-of-month reports was pushing their previous tool — Glew.IO — to its limits:
- Fragmented Reporting: With ~80 products needing to appear in one report, they were forced to split data across 5 separate reports just to make it work
- No Part Number Tracking: Their specialty parts business required line-item visibility into part numbers — something their previous platform couldn't deliver
- Overpaying for Underperformance: Glew.IO cost more while solving fewer of their specific accounting and inventory needs
- End-of-Month Crunch: Without proper profit reporting, monthly close was manual, error-prone, and time-consuming
The PayHelm Solution
PayHelm didn't just replace Glew.IO — it adapted to RC Pro Zone's specific workflow, removing the friction that was slowing them down:
- Consolidated Product Reporting: PayHelm expanded filter capacity so all 80+ products fit into one clean report — no more juggling 5 separate views
- Part Number Visibility: Custom reporting now includes part number listings, giving the team line-level clarity across their full catalog
- End-of-Month Profit Reports: Clean, accurate monthly close reports — exactly what an accounting-focused specialty retailer needs
- Rapid Support Response: When they hit a product filter limit bug, PayHelm's team identified the root cause and shipped a fix within days
