Sometimes, you really don’t need long to see that something is working well. It’s been a matter of months and Craig Eddy, Managing Director, is clear about the results:  “85% of our total revenue in the last 3 months has come from Applegate.”, explains Craig.  “Applegate don’t restrict buyers to using their system. Whilst speaking on the phone to their marketing team, I’ve had an email from the NHS who have come back to me again, having found us on Applegate originally. We’re building ongoing relationships and winning ongoing business that we wouldn’t have had without Applegate.”

Starting from scratch with a ‘customer-first methodology’

“Rapid Fire were starting up. We were in a stage where our values were central, and revenue was crucial. As a logistics company, we needed to invest a significant amount of capital in technology. The money we had left was for marketing – split between Applegate and one other provider. Applegate aligned with our values and has delivered the sales we need.  We are particularly delighted with the client service element - this really helps us know where we can improve for other quotes."

When you grow, Applegate grows with you

During the coronavirus, Applegate was cited time and again for supporting the despatch of millions of pieces of PPE each week. “Our logistics expertise gave us a firm footing for supporting with the supply and distribution of PPE. When Applegate expanded to support this market, it was a no-brainer for us. We upgraded our membership in order to be able to quote on these enquiries. We’ve won our biggest PPE orders through Applegate and continue to get repeat enquiries.”

“I recommend Applegate to everyone. It’s a great concept that has revolutionised our business”.
