Building Materials Companies
Grow your sales with a better Where to Buy experience
As a building materials company, you rarely sell directly to the end-user. You may sell through a network of dealers, distributors, and contractors and rely on a locator to direct your website leads. However, most locators won’t tell you if these leads have reached out to your network. Even worse, your network may not know you sent them leads, and they could end up selling a competitor’s products.

Showcase your products with local expertise
There can be a disconnect between a lead viewing your products online and finding the right dealer, contractor, or distributor. Help leads overcome this barrier by showcasing your dealers or contractors. Build customer confidence in your brand, dealers, and contractors with project photo galleries, reviews, and specialties.
Dealers
Promote your dealers and make it easier for them to sell your products. Highlight key differentiators, like showrooms and design services. Send them highly qualified leads.
Contractors
Homeowners want contractors they can trust. Boost your contractors’ credibility with reviews, local projects, certifications, quick follow-ups, and more.
Distributors
Drive business to your distributors by showcasing their delivery capabilities, product range, and more.
Capture and send qualified leads for faster follow-up and more sales
Capture and connect ready-to-buy leads with your dealers or contractors through branded correspondence. Surpass customer expectations and your competitors with instant follow-ups.
Drive dealer and contractor success and loyalty
Start passing leads with confidence and encourage your network to prioritize selling your products. Recognize high-performing dealers and contractors by rewarding them with more leads. Strengthen relationships and close more sales for both parties.
