Inadequate sales growth, pricing, and forecasting
Your sales are stale… stagnant… stuck in the water. Whichever analogy you prefer, this is never good news for a company. You know your competitors. You know how they are stealing your prospects. How can you recapture market share with an affordable and profitable product? How can you guess at what your customers will need before they need it and price appropriately?
There are, of course, multiple reasons for a company to set their prices but you seem to be falling into the same traps:
- your labor costs drive up your prices
- your customer orders are erratic, due to no forecasting, which is leaving you with downtime, that drives up your prices
- you are producing too many defects, which is driving up costs
- you have no idea if your true costs are even close to your quoted costs
In other sections, we cover most of these price hurting elements, and you are working to fix them. And that leaves you with the job of:
- Recalculating costs, which needs math
- Growing your sales, which needs strategy
- Forecasting for your current customer base, which needs research
- Impressing your customers with modern solutions
To help grow your sales, we designed OnRamp to help you attract and retain customers by ensuring that your interactions with your clientele are alive and well. Our dashboards and reports connect to your real-time data, allowing you to better manage your customer information, contacts, and price lists by streamlining and automating order capture and processing and giving you the ability to use Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to communicate with your customers.
