This digital solution equips manufacturers’ representatives and distributors with the ability to quickly and effectively produce accurate and professional quotes or estimates for prospective clients within minutes. By leveraging a sales quoting tool, manual errors are eliminated, pricing and product details remain consistent, and the sales cycle is significantly enhanced. 

Generating a price quote entails numerous steps, and without the aid of a quoting tool, assembling a quote typically involves using a word processor or spreadsheet.

You’re typically required to manually gather all aspects of a quote, including part numbers, list prices, discounts, and more. Manually tracking these elements and performing calculations introduces significant room for human error and consumes valuable time.

Additionally, customer or prospect information, such as billing addresses, must be manually entered into the quote. Subsequently, each quote requires manual formatting to adhere to manufacturers’ branding guidelines. Afterward, the quote must be saved as a PDF file and attached to an email within a separate email application. This fragmented process results in a collection of separate Word or Excel files for quotes, making it challenging to search for specific information or generate reports on total quoted amounts for the month.

Aside from the above-mentioned limitations, there are various other drawbacks to manual quote creation, highlighting the necessity for reps or distributors to have an easy-to-use quoting tool readily available.

Increased Quote Accuracy

Quoting software offers a major advantage by enhancing the overall accuracy of your price quotes. Whether it’s for a service purchase or product sale, quoting software accurately calculates the costs involved, including time, materials, and profit margins. This allows you to provide customers with accurate estimates, ensuring transparency and trust in your pricing. Moreover, quoting tools can assist in determining the best product bundles for each client.

A significant benefit of using a quoting management system is its ability to significantly reduce the time spent on each quote. Particularly crucial in a competitive sales environment, a sales quoting application automates the process of sending quotes to customers upon receipt of their request. This ensures quick responses, preventing potential clients from seeking alternatives due to delayed communication.
