This improvement in the relationship must provide &#8220;value&#8221; to the consumer of our products or services.<\/p>\n<p>Developing a distribution channel involves selecting one or more companies to distribute their products or services so that they are consumed more or in a better way by their customers.<\/p>\n<p>The decision to incorporate an indirect channel or a distribution channel into our <strong>sales strategy<\/strong> must be the result of a reasoned response to the questions we should ask ourselves prior to the construction of a new distribution channel.<\/p>\n<p>From Optimum Sales, we propose 10 questions that will help you take the first step in deciding whether or not to develop a distribution channel:<\/p>\n<p><strong>10 Questions to Develop a Distribution Channel<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>What value do distributors bring to my product or solution?<\/li>\n<li>Do the distributors complement my product or service, or do they just resell it?<\/li>\n<li>What is the relationship between potential distributors and the end buyers of our products and solutions?<\/li>\n<li>What should these distributors be like?, Multibrand?, Exclusive? Specific to my product? From sectors related to mine?<\/li>\n<li>How many distributors should I have?<\/li>\n<li>Where should they be?<\/li>\n<li>What kind of relationship should we build with our distributors? What do we have to offer them so that they sell our products?<\/li>\n<li>What should we demand from them? Can we demand anything from them?<\/li>\n<li>How do our competitors relate to their distribution channels?<\/li>\n<li>What actions should we take to ensure that our distributors prefer to sell our product over others they distribute?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Once these questions are answered, we will have a clear vision of whether it makes sense to incorporate a distribution channel in the sale of our products.<\/p>\n<p>If you are considering the possibility of developing a distribution channel, contact Optimum at <a href=\"mailto:optimum@optimumventas.e\">optimum@optimumventas.e<\/a>s and we will advise you on making the best commercial development decision for your company.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span class=\"s1\"><b>David Galve<\/b>\u00a0| General Director <\/span><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/davidgalve\/\">www.linkedin.com\/in\/davidgalve<\/a><\/span><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/davidgalve\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/optimumventas.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Logo-Linkedin-P.png\" alt=\"Logo Linkedin\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1738922560060{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;] Optimum Sales \u2013 Development of Distribution Channels I: The Decision to Implement a Distribution Channel as a Commercial Optimization Strategy The development of a distribution channel is a strategic approach for all those companies that decide to establish a better commercial relationship between themselves and their customers.
