About Beeya
Getting off birth control can wreak havoc on women’s hormonal health. Yasmin Nouri experienced this firsthand, and was in search of a natural and effective solution to help balance her hormones.
At the time, her functional medicine doctor recommended a protocol called seed cycling. She was hesitant to try it at first, but the results completely changed her life. This got her thinking: there must be a better way to help women experience these benefits and incorporate this into their daily rituals.
As a result, Yasmin founded Beeya in 2021. The initial product launch focused on making seed cycling more accessible and easier for women, and they’ve stayed true to this mission while expanding their offerings. Alongside this growth, Beeya also provides education and content around women's health and hormones.
Challenges
Early stage business owners have a lot to manage. Sales tax is an added stressor.
Not long after launching, Yasmin's vision of making hormone health a better experience for women was resonating. While Beeya began collecting sales tax in California, it was clear they would soon need to collect in other states.
She was frustrated when her previous provider was unable to have one-on-one conversations to answer her questions. Several months went by, and she was still finding herself stressed about sales tax and wondering whether or not the next filing was going to be accurate.
After going on a walk with a friend and fellow entrepreneur, the not-so-fun topic of sales tax was brought up. Zamp was recommended, and she was relieved to know a managed solution with a dedicated customer support team actually existed.
“There was always some issue that was happening and I could never find someone to just have a conversation with one-on-one to rectify it. Finding somebody who could grow with us was huge.”
Solution
Zamp manages sales tax for Beeya as they continue to grow, driving 3 key benefits:
Benefit #1: Total peace of mind when it comes to sales tax compliance
Once she partnered with Zamp, she had peace of mind knowing the team would ensure all of her filings were accurate. From spending hours stressing about sales tax with her previous provider, Yasmin now spends roughly 5 minutes per month on sales tax.
“I trust them, so I can focus on other aspects of my business.”
Benefit #2: Access to a responsive customer support team
Sales tax is complex, but Yasmin now rests assured that Zamp’s customer support team is handling everything accordingly. If a question pops up, she knows she’ll get a quick and helpful answer from the team.
“Everything has been really great and the communication aspect is huge.”
Benefit #3: A seamless onboarding process
Getting started was a straightforward process that took place over a few calls with a dedicated onboarding specialist. After being guided through the steps below, Yasmin was all set:
- 1. Give Zamp access to her Shopify store and transactional data.
- 2. Zamp determined which states she needed to start collecting sales tax in, and they turned it on in Shopify for her.
- 3. Zamp handles everything sales tax-related going forward.
“Your team has been very helpful with onboarding and communicating about deadlines, and they're not last minute about stuff.”
