Industrial Manufacturing Sales Training

Increase your market share by helping your Dealer Network sell more effectively

Manufacturing Sales Training

Selling through distribution can be a blessing and a curse. A top-performing Dealer Network will help the OEM reach exponentially more customers. On the other hand, an underperforming distribution network can prevent growth and cause the OEM to lose precious market share.

At the end of the day the success of your business depends on the strength of your Dealer Network, and providing your distributors with product training simply isn’t enough to help you achieve your revenue targets or company goals.

Selling through distribution can be a blessing and a curse. A top-performing Dealer Network will help the OEM reach exponentially more customers. On the other hand, an underperforming distribution network can prevent growth and cause the OEM to lose precious market share.

At the end of the day the success of your business depends on the strength of your Dealer Network, and providing your distributors with product training simply isn’t enough to help you achieve your revenue targets or company goals.

Fundamentally, an OEM’s success centers on 3 things:

1
How effectively the OEM salespeople work with the Dealer Network
2
The strength of Dealer salespeople and sales managers
3
The Dealer’s ability to hire and develop top field sales talent

If these 3 key components aren’t working in sync, then company growth targets will be missed.

The negative impact of this misalignment can’t be overstated. Not only does it lead to decreased market share, it also plays a large role in missed projections, poor forecasting for sales and production, and a general inability to control the outcomes of the partnership.

Marketing campaigns and branding can only take you so far. Successful manufacturers make sure their dealers are hiring strong salespeople and providing them with the skills training that gets them selling more effectively.

By delivering an OEM-Sponsored Sales Channel Training program, you’re providing the Dealer with what they want – sales growth – in a way that helps you achieve your goals as well.

OEMs that struggle for market share are OEM’s that haven’t built a strong relationship with their Distributors. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t start to have influence over the amount of market share you’re winning.
