Equilibrium gives you control of your business, plain and simple. It standardizes your entire business process, or gives you a better one.

In addition, EQ allows you to enhance the customers’ buying experience and match your processes to how today’s customer actually buys.

Absolutely not; Equilibrium was built as a platform with strong workflow control so that you can configure it to match the way you do business.  If the future brings change, you can make minor changes in Equilibrium to match your new business structure.  Equilibrium was designed to allow you to conduct business the way you want to operate. With that said, if you’re ready to make improvements to your business processes, we know all about how to make you better, and EQ will be your vehicle.

Yes. Equilibrium wants you to have absolutely everything related to the job in one system. You’ll be so glad when you have to reference that job in the future. EQ has a comprehensive quoting engine and can be setup to sell any product or service on the market. Of course, its strength is in handling complex products like cabinets and other “special order sales” items, but catalogs can be created for virtually anything you sell.

Not even close. While some design programs allow you to price parts of your projects, Equilibrium allows you to assemble a total package price of all components of the job, and everything related to it. From complex cabinet catalogs to countertops, sinks, faucets, flooring and more, all products and labor can be quoted, ordered, scheduled and punched through Equilibrium.  Additionally, Equilibrium has a powerful workflow engine designed to streamline all aspects of your operation for maximum revenue generation and streamlined operations that prevent margin erosion.

Think of it this way. 5 years after you sell and complete a job, the customer comes back in and wants to add some things. What do you have to do to find all the original job info? Most dealers would have to search through boxes of paper to find the job folder. They would have to look on hard drives to see if they can find the original .kit file from the 2020 design (or other design program). Most likely that would only give them a small piece of the info on the job. They would have to consult with acknowledgements to see what was actually ordered (since it might be different than what’s on paper or in design file). The process could take hours.

With EQ, everything is at your fingertips in seconds.

At best, your accounting system is  a rear view mirror approach to your business issues.  Accounting systems do well in very limited functions for the Kitchen & Bath industry: General Ledger, Invoicing, Paying Bills, and Payroll.  Equilibrium gives you business intelligence before, during and after the sale. Accounting systems predominantly concentrate only on what happened after the customer’s invoice has been paid. Think of your accounting system more as a score keeper after the fact.  Equilibrium does, however, communicate with a number of accounting systems and custom integration is possible with most accounting systems.

Yes, in fact, that is one of the greatest strengths of the software. Business owners can drill down into locations as groups, or individuals inside locations and report on closing rates, forecast sales, segment customers and determine the overall  effectiveness of marketing, sales and operations.  You can even compare location performance to determine if you have internal inefficiencies that need some attention.

The real question you are asking is if this investment in your business will help you build and grow your company.

Think of Equilibrium as the low-cost assistant to each of your sales and operation teams members. Most businesses scale up labor when demand spikes and cut back well after the curve of demand abates. Equilibrium allows you to keep an even labor to sales relationship and, in fact, allows some business to cut back on employee expense. Additionally, most customers report an increase in gross margin after on-boarding.
