Safety Today Inc.<\/a> has kitted out its sales force with iPads, full of tools to help streamline buying processes.<\/p>\n

Whether visiting existing customers with special contract pricing or calling on new ones, salespeople find the most valuable process improvements come from a special version of an e-commerce app.<\/p>\n

Safety Today<\/a> worked with the app\u2019s developers to customize software precisely for their business model and array of products. The company\u2019s salespeople can now use the new app on a visit with the customer to create immediate product quotes and speed up the ordering process.<\/p>\n
