Find Your Metal Buying Match

Patty tends to buy parts at off hours—typically weekends and evenings. Having just taken over the role of buyer for a large industrial tooling company a few months earlier, her days are jammed packed.

Noticing this, Steve, her sales rep, knew she would be a good candidate for a ryerson.com account. But his recommendation wasn’t based solely on the ability for Patty to shop for metal 24/7.

It was these buying patterns that also stood out:

Purchasing the same 25-30 items every 2-3 week
Having part numbers for each of her parts

Therefore, he matched her up with the following features on ryerson.com:

Shopping Lists: allows Patty to create specific lists and save for later. When ready to purchase, she simply hits submit.

Bulk Upload: Rather than input each individual item, this enables Patty to upload a list of parts and quantities from Excel or CSV files.
