{"id":92115,"title":"Paragon - Free money for distributors and manufacturers","tagline":"The AI Growth Engine for Industrials","body":"### **TL;DR**\n\nDistributors and high volume manufacturers are ignoring money:\n\n* Thousands of existing smaller customers get 0 follow-up or outreach from reps\n* Inside sales reps are doing data entry instead of engaging with customers\n  * Since they’re so backlogged, they often take a long time to respond to quotes, which drags down win-rate\n\nWhy? Humans can’t be everywhere at once, and justifiably only focus on the biggest few accounts.\n\nWe fix these problems. Customers use us to process hundreds of thousands of quotes and sales orders, as well as automatically nurture smaller accounts.\n\nBook a demo here:\n\nhttps://deployparagon.com/book-demo\n\nOur launch video: \\\nhttps://youtu.be/JbbfPPht02o\n\n### **The problem**\n\nHigh-volume distributors and manufacturers are leaving money on the table every single day:\n\n* Product quotes are sent out, but never followed up on\n* Great customers churn without a single conversation\n* High-value customers buy a fraction of what they could be purchasing if nurtured\n* and many more…\n\nWhy?\\\nInside sales people who do these for larger accounts are backlogged by manual order entry and quoting work.
