Description:
Unique SwS (Software with Service) breakthrough penetrates huge (4M businesses), high-growth market (11% - 2016) solving universal pains with distinctive customer value driven by a team that has done it before!
CutterCroix creates web-based software applications that are delivered through a subscription model. What is unique is not so much how it is delivered to the customer but how we support the customer in driving value from it. Our solution augments this easy-to-use software application with a Personal Sales Assistant (PSA) that mitigates the barriers to entry (i.e. purchase) and adoption (i.e. usage). We call this new model Software with Service or (SwS); what we believe to be the next evolution in B2B software deployment.
The CutterCroix “High Tech with High Touch” offering targets the U.S. construction industry which represents 10% of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (i.e. $1 trillion). This industry is growing by 11% through 2016 and has more than 4.2 million under-served construction firms needing to improve their sales and marketing while also reducing operational costs.
CutterCroix is seeking a select group of investment partners to accelerate this opportunity. To date, we have built a commercially viable web-based software asset. This asset also includes a services component which further distinguishes the asset. Additionally, we have created a prototype for the BlackBerry, secured our first of several national account partnerships worth a projected $10M and most importantly, we’ve built a scalable sales model that drives adoption and connects this fragmented marketplace that manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers of construction materials and services are all trying to reach.
