A PROVEN PROCESS TO DRIVE MEASURABLE GROWTH BY GENERATING QUALIFED PROSPECTS

Rhode Island Manufacturers: Build and Maintain a Steady Flow of Sales Opportunities with Polaris MEP's NEW Lead Generation Service

Have sales plateaued? Has the pandemic restricted growth from your existing markets? Is your team too thinly stretched to investigate new markets, or do they lack a consistent process for generating leads?

You're not alone.

Polaris MEP is responding to the needs of Rhode Island manufacturers with a new service: Lead Generation.

The Lead Generation program boasts 10 years of experience with hundreds of satisfied clients benefitting from millions of dollars in sales.

Our new Lead Generation offering was specifically developed for manufacturing companies by a sister center in the MEP (Manufacturing Extension Partnership) National Network. Designed for small- to medium-sized manufacturers, the methodology is proven.

"The Lead Generation program has lined up some excellent appointments for us. We have our own internal outreach, but some prospects are so busy that it's helpful to have their team follow up in a planned, structured way ..."

- Diane Lewis, Manager of Business Development Services, Manufacturers Resource Center

CASE STUDY: Proven Sales Methodology, Remarkable Results

Corry Rubber Corporation (CRC), a family-owned manufacturer in Pennsylvania, saw their organic growth taper off. Through their local MEP, they turned to the Lead Generation Service.

  • Within the first reporting cycle, efforts resulted in four new customers.
  • One new client alone contributed $400,000 in new sales.
  • They received a purchase order for nearly $400,000 in additional annual revenue believed to be sustainable and recurring.
  • They quoted another prospect for $2.5-$5 million in additional annual sales believed to be sustainable and recurring.

“We needed somebody who could generate additional at-bats for us.  We simply weren’t getting enough opportunities to communicate our capabilities to potential customers who had problems and were in need of our chemistry, engineering, and manufacturing expertise ...

In [Lead Generation services] we found a partner who not only began to communicate [our capabilities], but began by taking the time to truly understand our business and goals so that they could do so in the most effective fashion.”

- Ernie Ferro, President, Corry Rubber Corporation
