TROY, Mich., Oct. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Meritor, Inc.
(NYSE: MTOR) announced that Meritor® Mobile™, a sales and
service information tool, is now available for free download
through the Apple App store and iTunes. The application is
custom-designed to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of
sales and service personnel in the commercial vehicle industry.
Meritor Mobile provides a detailed portfolio of Meritor's
sales, maintenance, and technical information in an intuitive and
easy-to-use format.
Meritor Mobile is the public version of the Meritor iPad
application used by its North American Field Operations sales team.
Meritor's extensive product portfolio and exceptional customer
services are featured through nearly 800 files, including
brochures, maintenance manuals, parts books, technical bulletins,
images and videos, making it one of the most content rich
applications in the commercial vehicle industry.
"After the success we have seen with our North American Field
Operations team utilizing the iPad sales tool, it made sense to
roll this out publicly and give our customers a tool that will
enhance their sales and service effectiveness," said Matthew Stevenson, general manager, North
American Field Operations and Marketing, Meritor. "Users will now
have key Meritor product information literally at their fingertips
further strengthening our commitment to innovation."
Meritor Mobile was first unveiled at the Mid-America
Trucking Show (MATS) in March 2011.
MATS was also Meritor's first literature-free trade show, as the
application allowed attendees to individually explore product
features and benefits through the use of iPads in the booth.
Attendees used the integrated email feature to send themselves
literature rather than taking a printed brochure, further enhancing
Meritor's commitment to environmentally friendly business
solutions. Meritor Mobile will now be available at select
tradeshows in Meritor's booths.
The application is designed for easy navigation as users can
drill down to progressively more detailed sales and service
information in each of Meritor's North American product lines. It
is compatible with both generations of the Apple iPad. A network
connection is not required but it is recommended.
