Acataloguethatbringsinenquiries

Engineers and buyers search by model, specification and part number. When they can't find it on your site, they send a vague email or go to a competitor who shows it.

• Enquiries without product codes

  An email that says “send me an offer for that thing on your site” means a call back, a few more emails, and a quote that leaves days later.

• A catalogue nobody can search

  A PDF from a few years ago doesn't show current data, can't filter by specification and is hard to use on a phone at a customer's site.

• Service and spare parts by phone

  Every request for a spare part or a service date goes through the people who should be selling, and nothing reminds the customer when service is due.

If this sounds familiar, the problem may not be your products or your sales team, but how an enquiry gets to you.

  Maintenance plans ↗

Each module has its own fixed price and date in a written offer. We'll also tell you which ones you don't need yet.

• B2B portal for regular customers

  Business customers log in and see their own prices, past orders and one-click reorders.

  Example

  A fire brigade logs in, sees its agreed prices and repeats last year's order of hoses and extinguishers in one click.

• Spare parts by serial number

  Customers enter a serial number or model and see exactly which parts fit.

  Example

  A maintenance technician enters the robot's serial number and orders the replacement gripper without calling sales.

• Service reminders

  A record of equipment per customer, automatic service reminders and online booking of a service date.

  Example

  A hotel buys 40 extinguishers. A month before service is due it gets an email to pick a date, and a QR sticker on each one shows its service history.

• Product configurator

  Buyers choose the parameters and get the right model, with the quote request already filled in.

  Example

  A buyer picks reach, payload and gripper type. The configurator suggests a model and sends the configuration with the request.

• ERP connection

  Stock, prices and orders sync between the site and your business software, without manual updates.

  Example

  When the warehouse sells the last unit, the site shows “delivery in 2 weeks” on its own.

• Automatic follow-up

  A short series of emails after an enquiry or a sent offer, and a reminder for your sales team.

  Example

  Three days after an offer the buyer gets a short reminder with a case study. A week later sales gets a note to call.

I'm Marian Babić, founder of MaBe Labs. For 5+ years I built software for companies with thousands of employees, as an engineer and project lead in Zagreb, Munich and Amsterdam, including the web platform for one of the world's best-known robots. Now I build catalogues and sales tools for equipment suppliers, and you deal with me directly.

• Robotics equipmentLive

  An online catalogue for a robotics equipment manufacturer.

  Our first project for an equipment supplier: the manufacturer's products with their specifications in one catalogue, built for the engineers and buyers who compare them. It's live, and the full case study follows.

• Customer supportGrowth without hiring

  American companies grew their support without hiring anyone.

  I led a team of four building the platform behind a remote support network: agents anywhere in the world answering calls for US companies. Those companies scaled their support without recruiting, training or managing new staff.

• Automotive finance€18k a month saved

  €18,000 a month cut from one storage bill.

  For the financial-services arm of one of Europe's largest carmakers, I built cloud infrastructure that cut storage costs by €18,000 a month, and the internal portal that kept the company compliant. Monthly audits went from a hunt across systems to one place to look.

• Marketing researchManual work automated

  Competitor research that took people hours, now one click.

  A research tool where you add a competitor, it goes online, collects every ad they're running and comes back with a finished PDF. Work that people used to do by hand.

• RoboticsReal-time control

  Driving a robot live, from a browser.

  The web platform that controls one of the world's best-known four-legged robots, with live video and telemetry. If software can drive a robot in real time, it can run your orders.

The first project is MaBe Labs work. The others were built in my roles before MaBe Labs; those client names stay private.
