Charles: open on the pricing, not the gap. Publishing tier pricing is unusual and he chose to do it. Then ask what happens between Request Quote and a quote going out, and let him say the number. Two products in two categories were checked, so the claim holds. The site is SAGE PromoPlace (sagemember.com + promoplace.com, siteID 36456), which is why the layout cannot really be changed and why the CTA is a quote form.

Keep SAGE. We are not here to replace it.
We are an official supplier on SAGE and on ASI, and we exhibit at their shows. You
already know SAGE, your clients live in it, and it is tied to PPAI. Nothing below asks you to
give any of that up.
SAGE keeps doing
Product research across 2 million+ items
Your client records, logos and history
Presentations and product folders
Quotes, POs, invoices, order management
Your PPAI and PPPC connection
We take over
Apparel and decoration, end to end
Mock-ups with the real decoration method, the real print area and a real price
Artwork approval
Repeat orders
Client online stores that actually check out
The mock-up gap is the one worth showing him
SAGE puts a rectangle on a product. No decoration method, no imprint area from
the decorator, no size restriction, no price. So the mock-up a client approves is often not
producible, and it never carries a number. Ours reads the artwork, counts the stitches, picks
up the colours and places it inside the real imprint area, with the price attached.
The two talk to each other. Product and client data
moves between SAGE and our platform through our AI automations, so nothing is re-typed twice.
Charles: say "keep SAGE" out loud and early. He has years of client
data, presentations and orders in it and it is his PPAI link. Position SAGE as the back end and
the product-research side tool, us as the front end for apparel, mock-ups, approval, repeat
orders and stores. Never criticise SAGE as a company: we are a supplier on their platform and
we stand at their shows. Criticise the DEFAULT, not his judgement.

Your competition
Charles: he has never emailed us and we have never emailed him. This is the first real conversation, so there is nothing to refer back to.

Book 15 minutes for your tailored offer
We take everything above and build you something specific: your words, your colours, the promise
you picked, and a dated plan of what happens after you start.
Charles: no price today. Book before you hang up. If pushed: "I could
give you a number now and it would be a guess. Give me three days and I'll give you one built on
what you just told me."
