  • Equipment Sales and Consulting Services Needed
  •   

    BWE would like to encourage wireless equipment vendors, consultants and system integrators to take advantage of the qualified leads that BWE generates every week from customers who want to build wireless networks.

    Consider how much more sales your company could generate if your sales team had access to a database full of leads from people that have said specifically that they are searching for wireless products to buy. Each lead provides a specified budget and full contact information.

    So far, more than 3,321 customers filled out an extensive questionnaire so that the appropriate vendors will contact them and try to sell them their products and services. If fact, many customers complain because not enough vendors call them. They want to hear from your sales team. Don't miss out on these opportunities.

    In the last 24 months, these prospects have submitted RFPs that total more than $1 billion dollars.

    Contact me this week and we will give you a summer time discount of 50% to get access to these leads.

    Best Regards,
    Robert Hoskins
