Some inside sales programs produce marginal results, while others are veritable home runs. What is different in the execution of these home run programs?  

The superior performance happens in their day-to-day activities as inside sales reps contact customers and prospects, understand their needs, position your products against those needs, close sales and ultimately build strong long-term customer relationships. 

Join your hosts Ian Heller and Jonathan Bein as they welcome Mark Peck on Nov. 30 to discuss the following core elements in highly successful inside sales programs. 

Building and using a structured sales coverage model and plan 

  • Allocate your most valuable asset 
  • Apply the pareto principle 
  • Set expectations with inside sales staff 

Managing with a systemic inside sales performance model 

  • Manage the elements of sales rep performance that drive revenue performance 
  • Develop an understanding of individual sales staff strengths and weaknesses 
  • Use the performance model to coach to achievement of high sales goals 

Join us on Nov. 30 at 9 PT/ 12 ET to learn how these two business models can help drive superior execution in your inside sales program.

When done properly, proactive inside sales should:

  • Grow midsize accounts 15% to 20%
  • Increase gross profit through revenue in higher margin accounts
  • Reduce sales comp for midsize accounts 30% to 40%
  • Increase retention

In our experience creating proactive inside sales programs, we have seen the best – and worst – practices for achieving these results.

In this episode of Wholesale Change we will look at six keys in creating a successful proactive inside sales program including organization design, management support, compensation, account selection, selecting the right people and technology support.

The last two years were full of disruption and upheaval in the supply chain and logistics sectors. Surging demand, record cargo volumes, skyrocketing prices and unprecedented congestion are just a few of the challenges that distributors have faced in their efforts to obtain goods from their suppliers and deliver products to their customers. In this episode of The Discerning Distributor, host Alex Chausovsky and his guest Samantha Jones of Rocketshipping will explore all these topics and more. Most importantly, they will discuss the latest pertinent data as we close out 2022 with a softening economy and offer insights and guidance on what distributors should do to optimize their supply chain strategy for 2023 and beyond.

In this webinar, Mike Marks, Founding Partner of Indian River Consulting Group, will rely on his experience working with dozens of leading distributors to talk about how to successfully implement CRM and how this will evolve in the future. He’ll use examples and define best practices to help you understand how CRM can benefit you today and what you must do to ensure you continue to gain benefits from this technology going forward.  

The proper use of data can create a powerful coaching tool for sales managers. The real power of a deployed CRM is the creation of a light touch but formal performance improvement loop. The idea is that a plan for the month is developed and at the end of the month both activities and results are examined to identify performance improvement actions for the subsequent month. In many cases, the sales managers need to develop some process-driven coaching skills. AI tools are also creating significant leverage for today’s sales manager. The long-term sales performance impact of a CRM improves on the same principle of compound interest.

Ed Gerber, CEO of Summit Electric Supply, joins us on the Oct. 26 episode of Wholesale Change. Before joining Summit Electric, Ed was the CEO of the Industrial Supply Association (ISA) after holding a number of senior executive roles for industrial distributors.  

We’ll ask Ed what it was like to switch from the industrial industry to electrical. During our conversation, we’ll explore topics like sales force optimization, digital transformation, value-added services and what it takes for a regional distributor to compete effectively against global players. 

Ed has been highly successful during his tenure at Summit, even though he joined the company less than a year ago. It’s his first CEO role with a distributor, so he’ll tell us what it’s like to be in the top seat compared to other senior executive roles he’s held.

Join us on Oct. 20 at 9 PT/12 ET for our next episode of The Discerning Distributor. 

The war for talent rages on. Some organizations are ill-prepared to handle the challenges of an increasingly complex labor market, shackled by the “we’ve always done it this way” mentality. Others are thriving, armed with analytical insights and surrounded by allies, allowing them to snap up and retain high-performing impact players and supercharge their growth.  

What kind of an organization are you? More importantly, what kind do you want to be in the future?  

In this episode, host Alex Chausovsky and his guests, Jay Denton and Dr. Mallory Vachon, will discuss the latest labor market developments and offer key insights designed to help business leaders and decision-makers elevate their talent-focused activities and develop labor strategies that work in this candidate-driven market.

Distributors need to develop strategies for broadening the assortments they offer customers beyond what they stock. The old days of a website = one company’s inventory are fading.  

But the choices aren’t as simple as whether to sell on existing marketplaces or build your own. There are options in between – including drop-shipping from your suppliers to creating partnerships with distributors selling adjacent products and more.  

In this webinar, Ian Heller will set out a model for thinking about marketplace strategies in ways you’ve probably never considered. He’ll describe a variety of options you should consider to expand your offering so you aren’t stuck in the past as websites that sell just one company’s goods fall out of favor.  

Join us for a free webinar on Oct. 19, at 9 PT/12 ET to hear how distributors can compete in a landscape where marketplaces are quickly taking share.

Every distributor does an annual budget – but that’s not the same thing as formulating a strategy. The budget process is very tactical, focused on current operations and does not typically account for broad industry trends, disruptors or major technology changes.  

If you don’t want to get blindsided, you need a strategic plan. A strategic planning process will allow you to think about the positioning of your company and how you need to adapt your value proposition over time.  

Join us on the Oct. 12 episode of Wholesale Change at 9 PT/12 ET when Ian Heller and Jonathan Bein, Ph.D., talk about the strategic planning process they’ve developed to help distributors formulate long-term plans. This feeds into the short-term budget process but also enables changes that empower a company to thrive in the long term.

How do manufacturers determine their go-to-market strategy? What factors do they weigh and how do those factors change based on company size, industry or geographic footprint? Furthermore, a growing number of manufacturers are using ecommerce to sell directly to end customers. In recent surveys, they disclosed that it’s because many distributors still lack digital capabilities and a strong marketing acumen. 

The rapid evolution of market dynamics in recent years demands that distributors seek a better understanding of the manufacturer mindset. In this episode of The Discerning Distributor, Alex Chausovsky and his guest will explore the factors that manufacturers consider when evaluating their go-to-market strategies – both direct and through various channels, including distribution.

Distribution is the most purely competitive sector of the American economy. That reality makes it challenging to permanently and significantly increase profitability. The competitive nature of distribution also means that the difference between winning and losing is very small. 

Despite the challenges, distributors can embrace approaches that drive higher profits in a way that competition cannot easily match. Join us Oct. 5 at 9 PT/12 ET when Al Bates will share the small changes that can be made in two key areas of the business to exponentially increase profit.

Mike Marks of Indian River Consulting Group has partnered with Distribution Strategy Group to survey distribution decision-makers to understand their experiences with CRM – good and bad. We asked them questions about how they choose, integrate, drive adoption of and use CRM systems.

Join us for this free webinar, where Mike will share results and define the real-world state of play today in how CRM tools work. The session will provide a framework around the five core processes in any CRM that will provide participants with the insight to select, deploy and recognize the implementation pitfalls that can trap a distributor into pilot purgatory.

The guiding principle driving the framework is that CRMs exist to provide data to the sales representative so they can make better decisions on where to spend their time and what to do.  In a fully deployed CRM, 80% of the information should come TO the sales rep and only 20% comes FROM the sales rep.

Use the framework to assess your own adoption position and identify the key actions to move ahead.

Join us on the Sept. 28 episode of Wholesale Change when our guest will be Alex Tomey, the Senior Vice President of Merchandising for Global Industrial Company.  

Global Industrial is a billion-dollar value-added industrial distributor. Global Industrial offers customers more than a million products — from material handling to packaging and supplies — including its own proprietary brands. Alex was previously the Co-Chief Merchandising Officer at Petco. Before that, he served as Senior Vice President and GMM of Merchandising at DICK’S Sporting Goods and has held merchandising leadership positions at major retailers including Kohl’s and Walmart. 

We’ll ask Alex about his transition from retail to B2B, how he develops merchandising strategies for industrial and commercial customers, and the role of value-added services in differentiating Global Industrial from competitors.

A slowing macro economy will likely be a headwind for investment, affecting everything from capacity planning to capital expenditures and inventory levels. The pandemic-era swings in both supply and demand are likely to calm, but persistent uncertainties – the war in Ukraine, mid-term elections and the Fed’s interest rate policy – all cloud the decision-making process. What does it all mean to the distribution community? 

In this episode of The Discerning Distributor, Alex Chausovsky and his guest will delve deep into these critical topics. They will discuss the current Capex and inventory landscape, explore what is likely to occur down the road and provide some sage advice to distributors looking for clarity on what’s to come.  

Join us on Sept. 22, 2022, at 9 PT/12 ET for a live presentation – and walk away with new insights and ideas to help you deal with the uncertainty.
