The quotes are not lost on price. They are lost on silence.

Revenue arrives as a quote and keeps earning through an installed base. Both ends leak, and both are arithmetic.

Where the money goes in manufacturing and machine tools.

Sales asks for more accounts because coverage feels like the constraint. In most machine tool and industrial businesses we scope, the larger leak sits in quotes already issued: a third of open value with no recorded event for twelve days, nobody marking them dead, and a loss reason that says price because nothing else was written down. Behind that, an installed base earning nothing because the AMC dates live where sales never looks.

What the first hour looks like, and the number we would agree.

First meeting, no data from you

Lookalike sourcing on four customers you name, run live from import data, GST and MCA filings and industry directories. No credential, no data from you.

The number we would propose

Median days from first quote to order booked, tender business excluded, revisions counted as one quote. Or new accounts opened per quarter if coverage really is the leak.

Why that one

It is arithmetic on data you already keep, it moves within a quarter, and both sales and finance recognise it as theirs.
