In a market where speed determines opportunity, Kimball International's Quick Quote program transforms how dealers and designers compete by delivering fast, accurate furniture quotes in under 24 hours.
Since its introduction, Quick Quote has dramatically shortened response times, helping dealer sales reps and designers secure projects that might otherwise have gone cold. "Speed wins," as one Kimball International Market Sales Manager summarized, noting that when multiple manufacturers are in the mix, "the one who returns the quote first often gets the order."
Quick Quote bridges a critical gap in today's selling environment. It takes what used to be a multiday quoting process and turns it into an almost instant experience. This removes the friction for sales teams and helps them maintain momentum with clients who expect immediacy. Dealer Sales Representatives (DSRs) describe Quick Quote as "a game-changer that lets me be the hero of my office."
Designers report winning larger opportunities because of the ability to deliver professional, ready-to-order quotes, overnight. This speed advantage allows them to drive measurable growth.
That expectation of immediacy, sometimes called the Amazon phenomenon, has reshaped customer behavior across every industry. Quick Quote's success shows that furniture sales are no exception.
By turning what once required days of coordination into a streamlined, less-than-24-hour process, Kimball International is helping dealers build trust, convert faster, and win more. "Quick Quote has already helped me close deals that might have otherwise stalled," one DSR shared. "Getting a detailed response back in a day keeps my clients engaged and confident they've picked the right partner."
With nearly a thousand quotes processed monthly and adoption expanding across all regions, Quick Quote continues to redefine service expectations in commercial furniture sales.
