Frank Sciarrino is a third generation stone fabricator who worked for his family business for 20 years. Now he is the managing partner of Quote Countertops, a software company specializing in the kitchen and bathroom space.

According to Sciarrino, depending on the type of business you do will designate the type of software you need. “So if you're a fabricator and you do a lot of retail, as an example, you would get our software,” he explained. “We have a kitchen design tool that you put on your website. It lets customers design their dream kitchen. But more importantly, it captures the customer's information and a valid lead from your website so it's generating business, and on top of that, we have a countertop estimator that goes online. What this does is it allows a consumer from their smartphone, from anywhere, to go on your website and get an instant quote. The trick is that we do not give them the pricing until they unlock it with their verified phone number via text, and they can actually now add, check out and get digital contracts. So, just like Amazon, fabricators can sell countertops from their website.”
