world fence news • august 2016 • 25 In addition to chain link, Mas- ter Halco's free online contractor re- source system – QuoteMaster – now offers the full range of aluminum and steel ornamental, PVC, agricultural, and wood fence systems in its pro- gram. "With QuoteMaster, a contrac- tor can get pricing for everything we sell," noted Tim O'Brien, VP of Sales and Marketing. "Having our full prod- uct line on QuoteMaster is basic busi- ness sense." Contractors get quote requests for different types of fences, and with QuoteMaster they can quote the job, price it, and give their estimate back to the end user – all online. Doing this online gives contrac- tors the independence of quoting ma- terials at their convenience, and the quick turnaround makes a good im- pression on the end users, he added. With all of these systems avail- able, contractors can give their cus- tomers a wide range of options. If the customer knows they want a steel ornamental fence, the con- tractor can show them various styles and price points in MIW, Remington, Remington Plus, Montage, and Mon- tage Plus styles. Quoting a job in multiple fence systems and styles is easy with Quote- Master, O'Brien added. "Using Quo- teMaster's proposal program, contrac- tors can design the fence layout once and create multiple quotes for various fence systems and styles. Less work means a faster turnaround, and con- tractors can configure these quotes while at the job site." "The more options, the more likely contractors can find the perfect fence for the customers," said Master Halco Director of Marketing, Jerry Short. "If contractors can offer the cus- tomer exactly what they're looking for, they've taken the project off the street and secured the project. The customers don't have to request quotes from multiple contractors looking for the best fit, and contractors increase their close ratio," he said. QuoteMaster is free for contrac- tors to use and does not require addi- tional hardware or software to oper- ate, Short added. The program is web-based and stores projects with no yearly fees. As North America's largest fence distribution company, Master Halco products are manufactured and dis- tributed through five manufacturing plants and 53 distribution centers throughout the United States and Can- ada.
