Online manager

Windowlink has announced the launch of Kestrel, a new ‘online business manager for everyone who sells windows’.

Kestrel was created to make managing leads, workloads and customer relationships simple, while giving companies a business analysis tool.

Mark Dudley, managing director at Windowlink, said: “Every window company could do with an extra pair of hands to help out with admin and managing workloads, and that’s exactly what Kestrel does.

“Perfect for both retail companies and those who sell to the trade, Kestrel is a flexible, virtual business manager. It is configured so that companies can see the information that’s most important to them, at a glance.

“Each user can have a personalised dashboard which means all team members can use Kestrel to organise their workloads. At the same time, managers and directors can use it to manage the business and identify growth opportunities and cost savings.”

Kestrel can be a standalone package or be fully integrated with Windowlink’s Focus and Vector window and conservatory sales software packages. Leads and jobs can be directly imported, so there’s no doubling up on data entry. Customer interactions can be recorded and Kestrel gives users full diary access, so it’s easy to book sales visits, surveys and installation dates with homeowners.
