Commercial Operations

Distributors are a critical component within any company’s sales ecosystem. They not only help the company achieve its targets, but also are critical while understanding consumer mindset.

Dealers typically liaise with multiple functions within a company (sales, finance, legal, etc.) resulting in numerous contact points. This often leads to confusion, dissatisfaction, and escalations. These situations often have a direct impact on sales, order fulfillment, etc.

Companies, on the other hand, view these interactions as non-critical processes. Managing distributor relationships invariably results in the sales team spending more time on resolving issues rather than their core focus related to strategy formulation and execution.

In addition, companies must also ensure that all transactions with distributors are aligned to company policies. Compliance is a key aspect that companies need to keep in mind while driving sales or marketing efforts.

In short, companies must actively manage distributor relationships to meet their growth, control, or compliance objectives. This is where we step in.

Our technology-based solutions and process-driven approach helps clients streamline activities and focus on the most crucial aspects. We help achieve the fine balance between compliance and commercial activities.
