- Business ideas and ideas determine the way out; the thinking of a dealer plays a decisive role in the development of a dealer, even more than his financial strength.
- Example: Some distributors respond that your manufacturer should advertise in our local area so that it can be sold well. If you look at a certain brand, their local influence is stronger than ours. The manufacturers do not have advertising support, and it is difficult for us to do it!
- What are the business ideas?
- 1. Management status of the company
- Judging the status of a dealer's operation and management from two aspects,
- (1) Ask him how well each product item sold? What is the profit status of each month? See how he responds to know how his marketing is going?

- What is the word of mouth in the minds of customers?
- Talk to his staff and talk to his downstream customers to know how credible this is!
- If they complain, keep complaining, choose carefully and cooperate.
- For example, there is an electrical appliance dealer, and his customer gave him the evaluation that he sold more parallel imports, that is, there were many copycat products, so we gave him our products, and the customers thought our products were copycat products. Not sure.
- A dealer should have three brands: 1. Personal brand and personal reputation; 2. Company brand, company name; 3. Brand of distribution agency products.
- 4. Management strength
- The business strength of a good dealer reflects two aspects
- The first is: his financial strength; the financial strength is related to his later development scale and purchase level; the lack of funds will affect his later development.
- The second is: his distribution capabilities, vehicles and personnel corresponding to the distribution capabilities. When new products begin to be promoted, can they increase the distribution of goods and can personnel keep up?
- Case, a clothing brand, the nationwide use of specialty stores to open up the market; after the regional distributors, after winning the local distribution rights, opened two specialty stores in the past two years, sales are very limited, there has been no financial and manpower to open new stores. This affects the local sales of manufacturers, and is ready to change dealers.
- 5. Distribution product line
- See how this dealer's product conflicts with ours. If we operate a product of our strong rival and the sales are good, we carefully consider that he will not promote our product.
- 6. Career succession
- Some dealers are older and are ready to be passed on to their next generation; you have to see if he can pass on this; some dealers are difficult to pass on and can only make other plans;
- The dealer we choose should be like the sky, not the one I loved yesterday, and the kind of yellow flower yesterday, not to mention the dealer in the sunset. Choice is greater than effort, regional manager, marketing director. We combine the actual situation of the enterprise and choose our most appropriate dealer to develop our business.
