Do You Sell Through Distributors or Resellers? Like to Sell More Through Them?

Are You Providing Their Reps and Their Online Sales Team With Enough of the right Tools and Incentives?

Securing a distributor doesn't necessarily mean your product will sell well. Your distributor POTENTIALLY provides you with greater exposure, but we can help you make your product more attractive, and not get lost when they market their entire lineup.

The Growing Need For Distributor/Reseller Channel Sales Enhancement

In the eCommerce age, distributors are working both harder and smarter at both identifying potential customers, closing, up-selling and cross-selling. Yet, they work on a “market basket” approach, hoping to sell a variety of products to one customer. If you’re not already one of their leader accounts, how will you get the appropriate focus and effort? Even if you’ve been getting some sales, how can you be sure to get all you can?

We provide a distributor-sales audit that analyzes and evaluates the relationships you've established with your distributors, then offers specific enhancements. This focuses on providing the correct sales tools and incentives that keeps you in front of both the distributor’s sales and on-line promotion teams as well as their customers.

Getting More Attention and Sales From Distributors and Resellers

Our distributor/reseller program support tools can make your products more likely to sell via a distributor's online and personal sales channels. The same content can also be used to improve traffic on your website to increase your mailing list size, improve your own search engine position and sales lead generation (or conversions if you sell directly from your site).
