Quick explanation of our products and customers

www.RepQuotes.com is a sales tools that manufacturer's reps and/or agencies (reps) use to create and manage Sales Quotes and Orders for prospects and customers.

If you're wondering, a rep is an agent who facilitates the sale of a product between a buyer and a seller. A familiar example of a profession that operates in a similar manner is a real estate agent. They don't own the property they are selling, they are acting as an agent for the seller and they are paid a commission on the sale at an agreed upon percentage. Reps work the same way. They are not a party to the transaction and they don't invoice the customer.

Reps are asked by their prinicipals (the manufacturer of the product) to provide quotes to prospects and customers and once the details of the quote are ironed out, often requiring multiple revisions to the original quote it is accepted as an order by the principal. Easy in concept, but a difficult and tedious task for the rep as the principal does not typically provide quote management tools to the rep to execute the transaction.
