Your RFQs Sit in a Queue While Your Competitor Already Sent a Proposal.
That $500,000 RFQ hit your inbox at 3pm. Your sales team was in a production meeting.
Manufacturing buyers don't wait. The shop that shows up first with intelligent questions wins the relationship—and usually the contract.
You're Not Losing to Better Competitors You're Losing to Faster Ones
That $500,000 RFQ hit your inbox at 3pm.
Your sales team was in a production meeting.
Your competitor had AI on it in 60 seconds—specs gathered, timeline confirmed, quote in progress.
By the time you opened the email, they were scheduling the plant tour.
- RFQs sit in inboxes for 24-48 hours. Your competitors respond in 24 minutes.
- Your best engineers are too busy making parts to answer sales emails
- By the time you gather specs, they've already gotten three quotes
- Technical questions go to voicemail. Contracts go to whoever answers.
The Cost of 'I'll Get to It Tomorrow'
*Based on 40% win rate for first-responder vs. 12% for late response
What if you were first on every RFQ?
First-responding shops win at 3x the rate. Those 17 'lost' RFQs could be 8+ contracts. At $75K average, that's $600K+ in recovered revenue.

Rocket Agents Is Built For
Contract manufacturers losing to faster competitors
Your quality is better. Their response time is better. They're winning.
Job shops where the owner IS the sales team
You can't quote while you're on the floor. But you can't afford to ignore RFQs either.
Industrial suppliers with more inquiries than salespeople
Every unanswered inquiry is a contract going to someone else.
Custom fabricators tired of being 'backup' option
Stop being the shop they call when their first choice is backed up.
The ROI Is Simple
Most manufacturers see improved win rates within 60 days.
Yeah, But...
We hear these from manufacturing professionals every day. Let's address them head-on.
Absolutely—and your engineers have that knowledge. But they shouldn't be spending it on initial inquiry handling. Rocket Agents captures RFQ details, gathers basic specs, and qualifies the opportunity. When your technical team gets involved, they have everything they need for a productive conversation. Technical expertise belongs in the quote, not the first email.
The quote takes weeks. The first conversation takes seconds. And here's what you're missing: by the time you open that RFQ email, 3 other shops have already engaged. They're asking smart questions, building rapport, positioning for the award. You're still 'reviewing the inquiry.' Speed-to-lead isn't about fast quotes—it's about fast relationships.
They'll talk to your engineers—about the technical stuff. But first, someone needs to acknowledge their RFQ, gather basic requirements, and schedule the discovery call. Right now, that takes 24-48 hours. By then, they're already touring competitor facilities. Rocket Agents handles the logistics so your engineers can focus on what they do best: solving technical problems.
You're right that relationships win contracts. But relationships start with responsiveness. When a procurement manager sends an RFQ to 5 shops and only 2 respond within an hour, those 2 get the relationship opportunity. The other 3 get a polite rejection email 3 weeks later. AI doesn't replace relationships—it creates the opportunity to build them.
Every project IS different—which is exactly why intelligent first contact matters. Rocket Agents doesn't give generic responses; it asks the right questions for YOUR capabilities: material, tolerances, quantity, timeline. By the time you engage, you know if it's a fit and have all the info to quote accurately. Custom work deserves custom engagement, not ignored emails.
