Enquiries up 80% for Framepoint

Tommy Trinder has reported that interest in its Framepoint app has ‘soared’ over the summer months, with demos up 80% on last year.

Tom Barfield, business development consultant to Tommy Trinder, said: “Market sentiment is definitely changing.

“With the threat of recession, installers are looking to shore up conversion rates and keep growth on track by bringing in tools that give them a competitive edge. As the market tightens, we’re expecting to see demand for Framepoint continue to strengthen.”

Tommy Trinder’s patented Framepoint technology allows users to free draw PVC-U, aluminium and timber windows and doors with a finger or mouse, just like sketching on a pad. Ironmongery, colour and bar options can be visualised and priced in real time allowing installers to show clients how their new windows and doors will look in situ.

“It’s about making the most out of every lead and installers are looking for software that will wow customers and help them stand out from the crowd,” added Tom. “It feels like Framepoint has a significant part to play in keeping installers ahead in uncertain times.”

Carl Tucker, MD of TNT Windows in Stafford, commented: “Having Framepoint brings you onto a different level.

“It makes you look professional. Customers appreciate the quality of the quote. And I can show them the quality of the products without having to take out sample windows!”
