San Jose, CA, November 1, 2011. Catalog Data Solutions (CDS), a leading provider of online solutions for industrial suppliers, today announced that E-Z LOK has incorporated the CDS Catalog and CAD download solution in the www.ezlok.com website.
E-Z LOK, based in Gardena, CA, manufactures and distributes threaded inserts for metal, plastic and wood. “The internet has and is changing industrial product selection and procurement. Existing and potential customers now often research and select products online even before talking to a supplier. Our website had to make finding and selecting the right product quick and easy as well as let users save time by downloading our CAD models for inclusion in their designs,” said Steve Schaeper, Division Manager, E-Z LOK. “We selected the proven CDS Catalog and CAD download solution for its intuitive user interface, flexibility, industrial parametric search capability and cost - and we are thrilled with the activity and CAD downloads generated in just the first few weeks since going live.”
“We’re delighted that CDS Catalog and CDS ModelServer has been selected by E-Z LOK,” said John Major, CEO Catalog Data Solutions. “As Steve and his team recognize the industrial buying process has changed, designers now research and select products online. To ensure they are in contention, suppliers’ online content needs to influence that online research by being readily found and intuitively searchable using the industrial parameters of the designer and then downloadable for direct inclusion within a CAD model. Of the many types of online marketing content (e.g. white papers, case studies, brochures, videos, demos, recorded webinars, reviews, CAD model downloads, etc.) only one is known to lead to a sale nearly 50% of the time! CAD downloads may be the most efficient online marketing tool available.”
Catalog Data Solutions helps industrial suppliers and distributors grow sales and strengthen customer loyalty through interactive online catalogs, ecommerce, 3D CAD model delivery and product configurator solutions.
