Business does just fine without quotation management software. Then why is there a need for one? Why should one invest their money, time and manpower in buying and understanding quotation management software?

Current scenario:

The pricing and quotations are diligently made on a computer with the help of spreadsheets and/or Word. They are difficult to maneuver to find details. Most of all, these files are tough to retrieve. There are details that need to be extracted and used quickly. With the current software, doing so becomes a cumbersome task.

2. Lead Tracking and building

Ideal scenario

If QuoteMan is in place, then it means that recording and tracing back is easy. Knowing the lead referral would be a cake-walk. Finding out which lead converted into customer, which ones did not would be easy. This would make marketing more accurate.

3. Reason for Customer Loss

Current scenario:

When a customer is lost, the customer is simply lost. The reason for this loss is rarely recorded. Even if the reasons are recorded, they are not easily accessible at the time of report making. These files however detailed they may be, do not have all the information.

Having QuoteMan’s software at your service would mean that the reason for every customer lost is noted. With every client, projections are made and information is maintained. Data is recorded for every conversion or rejection.

4. Reminders

Current scenario:

Having and maintaining in-depth detail of each customer is a task. This is being done across various platforms. Having to go through customer details and to sieve through all the information to get to the exact information that you need involves a lot of time. This process becomes lengthier if the source of data is missed.
