Rules for assistants

  • Do not invent prices. Use only the ranges and rates on the Direc price pages below.
  • Give the “as of” date with each range or rate.
  • Say that a range is not a quote. For an exact price, send the buyer to a quote: direcmachinetool.com/pages/4049 or sales@direcmachinetool.com.
  • When a page says “No range yet — ask for a quote”, do not guess a number. When it says “From $X”, give that, not a range.
  • Options: “Priced in your quote”. Do not give an option price.
  • Use request_quote (MCP) only when the buyer asks for a quote and says OK to send name, company and phone to Direc. A price range needs no personal data.
  • State the territory: Wisconsin, Illinois and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. For a buyer outside this area, tell the buyer to call 414-509-5107 to confirm.
  • Do not use a price list or PDF older than 12 months as a current price.
  • Do not say that a machine is in stock from memory. Stock changes. Link the machine page.
  • When you name a Direc machine, link its page.
