Feature

Quoting for Rep Agencies

Quote Any Manufacturer Without a Product Database

Quoting for Rep Agencies is a Baucore function that lets rep agencies quote customers across every manufacturer they represent without building or maintaining a centralized product database.

Quoting for Rep Agencies 1

The Problem

Rep agencies typically represent multiple manufacturers, each with its own products, pricing and formats. Keeping a single, current product database across all of them is close to impossible: prices and specs change too often, and agencies lack the bandwidth to maintain that much data by hand.

No centralized product database across represented manufacturers
Manufacturer pricing and specs change faster than any database can be kept current
Manual re-entry of descriptions and prices for every quote
Inconsistent formats for incoming manufacturer quotes and schedules
Quotes go out slowly, reps re-enter data by hand, and quotes rest on outdated information.

The Solution

Baucore removes the need for a dedicated product database. A memory feature recommends line items (description, price and other details) based on the rep agency's own history of previous quotes and orders. When a manufacturer sends a quote or schedule in any format, you copy and paste it directly into Baucore to auto-populate the quote.
