Source of measurements before SiteRecon - Diamond Maps (online software to measure properties), Site Visits
"Getting this measurement process very focused empowered us to allow the rest of our team members to continue to focus on the key points of their job without adding a piece that they have to figure out how to fit into their normal workflow"
Context - Nate talks about what attracted him to a solution that would help offload the responsibility of measurements from his team
I've measured a lot of properties in my career. It was a burden for me, it was a challenge for me trying to find the time to do my normal work, and do these takeoffs and do these estimates. Just identifying the opportunity that you had, it was a lightbulb moment. And all of a sudden, this is the innovation that we're looking for.
Context - Before SiteRecon, properties were measured online on Diamond Maps and someone had to allocate measurement time in their calendar. It could be week or two weeks before estimates were done.
When we can sit down and start talking about changing the scope and augmenting our recommendations to work within a certain price point, now we're having good business conversations and we're getting to a resolution together. That's really when we make that connection with the customers
Context - Compared to before, the quality of pre-bid interaction and site walks has changed as sales guys can talk numbers right from the start of the conversation
"the impartial nature, you have no skin in the game. If we get the job or don't get the job, you're just providing the most accurate measurements as possible. So that takes away somebody's chance of adjusting measurements"
Context - Nate talks about accurate measurements from SiteRecon helping bid precisely and win large projects
"So in that extra days that we've just gained back for them, business developers able to make contact with more customers, they’re able to get into more opportunities, they're able to have good strong conversations about what our customers pain points are, and really focus on that, because they're not distracted by the mapping process."
Context - Nate talks about freeing up business developers from maesurement tasks and focusing them on sales
That ultimately is one of those calculations that made this a no-brainer for us. Down the same road, there's actually now a cost associated with qualifying. So our sales teams are seeking out better opportunities.
Context - Nate talks about the return on investment from automating property measurements
"Now we're able to widen out the bottom part of that funnel and have a better close rate. We're also putting better, more qualified leads in the top of the funnel. And frankly, seeing our close rate increase that 20 to 25%."
Context - Nate elaborates on the ROI from automating property measurements
It takes a lot of that emotional and distorted views, I'll call it, just views that sales people have had, it takes out that personal touch, and it actually puts it down to a very accurate and logical measurement
Context - Nate talks about benefits of accurate measurements during operations after sales are closed
Our sales team has communicated everything to the delivery team, and the delivery team shows up in those with their expectations. It's a lot more fluid of a startup process
Context - Nate explains how SiteRecon maps help with smoother handover of information from sales to operations team after a bid has been awarded
"when a customer says, I need a solution over here, it's not always conducive when we're based out of Indiana and somebody is asking for a bid in Maryland for us to go out and take a look at the property in Maryland, that's a substantial amount of travel. So for us to be able to really qualify it and get support from you and your team on the measurement side, it really makes that process of securing work outside of the state that we're operating in a lot easier
Context - Nate talks about the future of automating measurements in his team when Mainscape's biggest room for growth is in new markets, organically through relationships and sales
The reality is, this is a great service, great product. And regardless of the competitive advantage that I think I'm getting right now, I think Utkarsh, you've done a phenomenal job building this team, and building the service for us and for us in this industry
