Carlsbad-Based MaintenanceNet’s Channel Enablement Initiative Honored at Fifth Annual 2013 Golden Bridge Awards

Carlsbad-based technology company, MaintenanceNet, Inc., has announced that its Service360® Auto Quote™ solution has earned a silver award at the Annual 2013 Golden Bridge Awards for its impact on a leading global distributor’s service contract renewal initiative spanning its North American reseller channel. Auto Quote, which was selected for the category of “Best Helping Partners Expand Business Program,” is a data-driven sales automation solution that empowers businesses to boost revenue and profits by closing more service deals faster.

Honorees including MaintenanceNet were announced in San Francisco on September 30 at a gala event hosted by the Golden Bridge Awards program, which is open to organizations around the world and features active participation from a broad spectrum of industries.

In selecting MaintenanceNet, judges cited the company’s innovative focus on leveraging existing transaction data across the supply chain to increase service revenue for the global distributor and its channel partners. MaintenanceNet’s Auto Quote program successfully increased service sales closures by more than 135 percent in 2012 for the distributor, while also delivering more than $220 million in automated service renewal quotes to its reseller customers each quarter, without the need to hire more staff.

“We are heavily vested in the success of our customers and we are honored to be recognized by Golden Bridge for helping this world-class distributor and thousands of its resellers across North America maximize sales and profits through the power of Auto Quote,” said Kelly Crothers, vice president of marketing for MaintenanceNet. “Auto Quote continues to achieve outstanding results for our customers through channel enablement and ongoing revenue generation.”

Designed to automate low-dollar, high-volume service renewals for manufacturers, distributors and resellers around the world, Auto Quote enables businesses to capture up to 100 percent of the service or warranty sales opportunity available to them. The solution ensures timely delivery of manufacturer-approved renewal quotes 30 to 60 days in advance of service contract expirations, streamlining processes through a low-touch, no-touch approach to service lifecycle management that results in substantial improvements in revenue and profits.
