Are cryptic product descriptions from distributors a problem?

Many of the descriptions that you receive from your distributors are great for finding your items and make sense to you, but do not provide the sellable or plain English descriptions that you need to close the sale. The descriptions on the distributor websites are great, but the file that you use to import contains cryptic descriptions. So, many people resort to copying these nice descriptions from the website which of course is time consuming.

The in depth marketing and feature descriptions from the QuoteWerks Product Subscription (powered by Etilize) will impress your customers and give them a good feel for how the products you are quoting will benefit them – much more so than a cryptic description that only identifies the model and product that is being sold.

Use our Content Subscription With Other Sources

Content Subscription data can be used with Native and External Product Sources like Autotask, ConnectWise, QuickBooks, and others. You can use the QuoteWerks Product Content with distributors that Etilize does not provide part numbers for.

Distributor Integration

If you purchase from Comstor, D&H, Ingram Micro, SYNNEX, or Tech Data, you may never need to import their databases again! The Etilize cloud database contains their part numbers and descriptions. Companies in the US, Canada, UK, and Australia can take advantage of the innovative onscreen price comparison functionality. With this, you instantly know which distributors have your items in stock, in which warehouse, and your current cost.

We obtain data from three sources:

Etilize – Provides customer friendly descriptions and part numbers for multiple distributors.
PartLocator – Translates a manufacturer part number into a specific distributor part number. This is especially useful when not found in Etilize.
Real-time P&A – Communicates directly with the distributor, obtaining pricing and availability.

*Limited Support: If you work with one of the distributors indicated in the “Limited Support” column, then the distributor part numbers for these individual distributors are not available through Etilize or the PartLocator. For these distributors we simply use the Manufacturer Part number to request pricing and availability because these distributors allow XML requests based on the manufacturer part number or actually use the manufacturer part number as their distributor part number.

PartLocator

As a supplement to the distributor part numbers provided by Etilize, QuoteWerks has formed strategic alliances with distributors to provide you with a more complete listing of items available in the channel. When a part number is not found in an Etilize search, the QuoteWerks PartLocator will find them. The PartLocator returns distributor part numbers and list prices as available. You must have a real-time xml account with these distributors in order to receive their list price and to see their part numbers.

Promotional Pricing and Expiration

On the Etilize panel, for supported distributors, the promotional price for products will be displayed. For Tech Data customers in North America, the promo expiration date will be displayed as well.
