Finding opportunities for growth in a changing industry

As a distribution executive, you must constantly be on the lookout for new opportunities for growth or face revenue erosion from new competitors and online sources. The best place to find new growth is by increasing your sales and marketing effectiveness.

SMP helps you out-compete the field.

Marketing teams at most distribution firms never have enough resources. There seem to be endless opportunities that sales reps and vendors want to take advantage of, but a very limited supply of marketing funds and staff. SMP makes life a little easier for distribution marketing teams.

According to Aberdeen Group, companies with integrated marketing analytics experienced a 5% profit margin improvement per customer vs. 2% average. That’s more than doubling profit margins per customer through better marketing that is powered by actionable analytics. The key is doing what SMP does by integrating your data and analysis capabilities all the way to your sales and marketing lists, activities and execution.
