Website vs. App: Why Not Both?

People say, “you can’t have your cake and eat it too.” Well, here at UnitWise, we kindly disagree. We believe in the motto, “why not both?” We want you to use and enjoy all of the features and tools UnitWise has to offer, without ever feeling like you have to make the choice of using just one.

My UnitBuzz

UnitWise is a business management solution designed to help you with your Mary Kay success, from keeping track of your inventory, communicating better with your Unit, to managing your expenses and invoices, etc. It’s all online and requires only one set of login credentials. But did you know we’re creating another great tool for you to use?


The UnitWise Heroes are in the process of designing a complementary communication tool called My UnitBuzz. It’s available for NSDs and Directors to send customizable messages and push notifications of training times, resources, and materials, as well as events and news blasts instantly to their Unit members’ smartphones.


The free app syncs to your UnitWise account and offers a new and innovative way for you to connect with your team. But don’t panic! Although it’s an extra tool for you to use, it doesn’t mean you have to visit an additional site or remember another set of login credentials; My UnitBuzz can be accessed and updated directly from your UnitWise account.


As excited as we are to bring this new app to you before Leadership Week in January, we don’t want you to think you have to choose between your UnitWise website and My UnitBuzz; we encourage you to use both!

4 Reasons to Keep Your Website

Having an online presence and a good website is still important for your business success, and here’s why!


1. People are Online: Although apps are great for shortcuts, people still go online to check a business’s availability, offerings, and even to read comments and reviews. Websites build credibility and are still great centers for information.


2. 24/7 Availability: Maybe one of your members forgot the time of their next Unit event. Instead of them calling you at 2 a.m., they can check your UnitWise website, and voila, they find the answer! You get to sleep, and they get the information they need.


3. Pictures and Stories: Give your Unit members the recognition they deserve. With your UnitWise website, you can post pictures and accomplishments for other Mary Kay members to see. It’s a great way to promote your business and the success of your Unit.


4. Reliability: Although apps are great, sometimes they can be unreliable. Maintaining your UnitWise website can help when your Unit members do not have a signal, a smartphone, or when they experience other phone-related difficulties. With your UnitWise website, your Unit can still access important dates and information from their laptops or tablets.

All-In-One

When we describe UnitWise to be an all-in-one solution, we really mean it! Everything from your Facebook, Twitter, My Website, to the soon-to-be My UnitBuzz app can be updated and edited from your UnitWise account.


Leave the thoughts of fumbling between different sites and remembering several different logins behind. All of your information, marketing campaigns, management features, as well as your communication and social media tools, are right there on your UnitWise dashboard. Who else can say they provide a more convenient option?


Here at UnitWise, we understand the hassle of keeping all of your business information organized and up-to-date. That’s why UnitWise will always be an all-in-one business management solution. Everything we design and create is to better help you on your path towards that pink Cadillac.


If you have any suggestions of features you would like to see in the My UnitBuzz app or in the future with UnitWise, please don’t hesitate to let us know. We’re always working and designing new ways to make UnitWise better for your Mary Kay business. And remember, you can always count on us; we’ve been in the Hero-saving business for a while now.
