Company Overview:

Arrow is a technology solutions software provider that has developed a CRM specifically built from the ground up for the equipment distribution industry.  Arrow is led by two industry veterans that developed a mobile-first, designed CRM provides the equipment distributors sales team with the complete power of a CRM in their hands on a mobile device.  From sending quotes and photos of current inventory via email, chat, text, tweet, to complete pipeline tracking for the sales manager to see what the sales team has proposed and to whom, their platform provides the complete package for equipment sales and rentals.  As it was designed specifically for the equipment distribution industry, there is no longer a need to fit the sales team process and sales tracking in to a commercial, off the shelf, CRM solution.
