!important;"><p>Manufacturing is one of the world’s greatest sources of innovation. Yet manufacturing sales often rely on yesterday’s tools and processes — spreadsheets and homegrown systems or software solutions that are too narrowly designed to do the job with speed and constant accuracy. Is your sales team dependent on one of those?<br /> <br /> <strong>You Are a Data-centric, Data-driven Business. Is Your Sales Process Keeping Up?</strong><br /> <br /> Today’s manufacturers benefit from data-backed decisions and processes that start with sales and continue through every part of the manufacturing and delivery process. Unfortunately, many manufacturers’ sales teams still struggle with spreadsheets, homegrown software, and disconnected systems that slow the sales process and increase the risk of errors when data is manually entered and reentered. As a result, deals are lost, and customer satisfaction suffers because sales, production, and delivery are all delayed.</p></p> <div > <ul style="margin-top: 15px;list-style:none;overflow:hidden;clear:both;"> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/manufacturing-process/"> <h2>Manufacturing Process</h2> </a> </li> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/manufacturing/"> <h2>Manufacturing</h2> </a> </li> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/management-accounting/"> <h2>Management Accounting</h2> </a> </li> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/manufacturing-analytics/"> <h2>Manufacturing Analytics</h2> </a> </li> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/management-information-system/"> <h2>management information system</h2> </a> </li> <li style="float:left;margin:10px;"> <a href="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/manufacturing-execution-system/"> <h2>Manufacturing Execution System</h2> </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="home-service" style="margin-top:0px;background-color: #526271;"> <div id="media-sec-1" style="background-color: #526271;"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-lg-12 col-md-12 col-sm-12"> <div class="col-lg-4 col-md-4 col-sm-12"> <div style="float:right;"> <span style="font-weight: 600;color:#fff;">Login With</span> <span><a onclick="return facebook_login();" href="javascript:void(0)"><i class="fa fa-facebook fa-2x fa-4x rotate-icon" style="background-color: #3b5998;color:#fff;padding: 10px;font-size: 19px;"></i></a></span> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-md-6 col-sm-12"> <div class="input-group" style="margin-top: 0px;"> <input name="email" id="email" style="height: 34px;" class="form-control" autocomplete="off" placeholder="Work Email" required="" type="email"> <span class="input-group-btn"> <button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" onclick="show_whitepaper_form();" style="font-weight: 600;"><i style="color:#fff;" class="fa fa-download" aria-hidden="true"></i> Download</button> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section>       <div id="footser-end"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-lg-12 col-md-12"> <span style="float: left;margin-top: -5px;"> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/10838095" target="_blank"><img alt="follow on linkedin" src="https://www.ciowhitepapersreview.com/img/linkedin_cirr.png" title="Linkedin" style="width: 30px;margin-top: 4px;
