Symmco Selects Online CDS Catalog
 SAN
JOSE, CA, Aug 30, 2011 - Catalog Data Solutions (CDS), a leading provider of online solutions for
industrial suppliers, today announced that Symmco, Inc. has elected to use three
of its products: the online parts catalog, CAD download solution and
configurator.
Symmco, Inc., based in Sykesville, PA, manufactures high quality powder
metal (P/M) components and is particularly well known for its lead-free P/M
bearings. “The internet has changed the product selection and procurement
process – our customers now often research and select products online even
before talking to any supplier. Therefore our website and the right product
on it must be easily found and selected. That convenience is augmented by
having downloadable CAD models available to save customers time and to get
our product designed in,” said Beth Krise, Director of Sales and Marketing,
Symmco Inc. “Working together with West Media Group, Inc. (who also
developed and maintains our website), we reviewed a number of alternatives
before making a decision. We selected the proven CDS Catalog and CDS
ModelServer SaaS solution for all our standard products and spec’d a
configurator that CDS will develop for our customers to design non-standard
products.”
“Symmco reviewed industrial online catalogs that they liked for both ease
of use and inclusion of all the functionality they needed, and they chose
CDS,” said Jim Wasylik, President, West Media Group.”
“We’re delighted to have been selected by Symmco Inc. and West Media
Group,” said John Major, CEO Catalog Data Solutions. “As they recognize the
industrial buying process has changed, designers now research and select
products online, so suppliers’ online content has to influence that
research, be easily searchable and downloadable. Of the many types of online
marketing content (e.g. white papers, case studies, brochures, videos,
demos, recorded webinars, reviews, CAD model downloads, etc.) only one is
known to lead to a sale nearly 50% of the time! CAD downloads may be the
most efficient online marketing tool available.”
Catalog Data Solutions helps industrial suppliers and distributors grow
sales and strengthen customer loyalty through interactive online catalogs,
ecommerce, 3D CAD model delivery and product configurator solutions.
