Catalogs Made Easy
Take Stress off Your Sales Force With A Complete, Responsive Catalog Managed By SalesChain
Manufacturer Information At Your Disposal
Manufacturers produce voluminous quantities of marketing materials, including catalogs, for business machines. Dealers for these products face the challenge of collating this information in a cohesive and readily accessible form for their sales representatives. Let SalesChain do that work for your company and save countless man-hours. Our master catalog can be tailored to the manufacturers your company represents, with the specification metrics your sales team needs to have on hand, all without time-wasting manual data entry. This database is continuously updated and maintained and includes the latest models, as well as machines that are still available for sale as refurbished units or off-lease options.
NEW: Integrations to IT Distributor Catalogs
With improvements to this tool and these new integrations, SalesChain intends to bring the strength of its proposal and order pricing tool to the IT space. With integrations to Ingram Micro, Supplies Network and TD Synnex, SalesChain brings major distributor catalogs into SalesChain’s proposal and order pricing tool daily.
Easily Browse and Add Items to Your Order
Sales proposals begin with detailed product information. When a rep prices a deal in its proposal stages, they’re given full access to our catalog to search for machines and add them to the order that they’re pricing. Searchability, images, and machine descriptions help to ensure the best solution for the customer. Our catalog provides a comprehensive database of office machine products along with all the associated accessories for over forty major manufacturers.
For each machine, our data store includes:
- Manufacturer model number
- A general description and a bulleted list of cogent features
- Technical specifications, such as printing speed and base engine dimensions
- Links to manufacturer brochures online
- All associated accessories and items
- Special and manufacturer credits
- Accurate pricing
- Links to high quality photographs of the equipment
Documentation That Closes Deals
Document generation occurs at all phases of a sale, and better catalog content means better documents! SalesChain software produces multi-page, customized sales proposal packets in just a few minutes. These include a cover sheet, an “about us” page to educate your client regarding additional product offerings, data sheets comparing marketing data for multiple machine options, and finally, solutions sheets, detailing different pricing and financing options for different product combinations, leasing options, cash buyout values, and service costs. Once a sale is secured, sales representatives can also easily generate lease documents, which pass proper serial and model numbers on to the finance companies, fulfillment documents that reflect accurate product configurations, and delivery (pick-up and move) documents. The entire sales process is done quickly with automated, electronic documentation that circumvents the errors inherent in manual data entry.
Updated Information Keeps You On Top
New business machines enter the market all the time, and with technology advancements, older ones quickly become obsolete. Consistent and accurate catalog maintenance is a must. SalesChain has a dedicated catalog marketing and maintenance team to do all of that for your company! We handle new product input from manufacturer literature, using it to create a concise and complete clearinghouse of vital machine specifications and pricing. Catalog entries are proofed for accuracy and updated any time your company provides the information you would like to see included. Having a complete and accurate catalog then allows your company to publish pricing with promotions and securitized levels, all to empower your sales team.
Mobility Drives Sales
With the SalesChain mobile application, this powerful catalog tool is available 24/7 on any device with internet connectivity. Sales representatives have access to a central database of machines without managing separate, cumbersome catalogs from their own computers.

The fulfillment staff can obtain precise and accurate equipment information with this tool, engendering trust in the fulfillment process and eliminating redundant, time-wasting price validation. Managers will certainly be pleased with the time savings and improved productivity of their staff!
