Why we developed Zephyr
Engineering firms have long worked with a broad network of agents, particularly when expanding into new markets. However, these relationships are often reactive and lack strategic direction.
Having many agents doesn’t automatically mean generating many sales opportunities.
Agents spread their resources across multiple partners and tend to invest where quick wins are most likely.
Zephyr addresses two key questions: How can we motivate agents to invest more in our collaboration? And when is it time to replace an agent?
