CMO
Sales has helped many companies redefine how they reach their intended
audience. Direct sales is a common approach but it can be very expensive.
Are there any potential partners in your market who are already selling
products and/or services to your intended customers? Why not find out
who they are, what they are doing and establish a relationship? You
might find you can reach your customers faster and for less cost.
The process:
1. Determine who and where your customers are.
2. Who is selling products and services to these people?
3. What are they selling?
4. Pick the top 3 or 4 vendors. Do they have quality sales representation?
A good reputation?
5. Would any of your choices benefit from selling your product or service?
Could it help them achieve more sales?
6. Meet with your top choices. Would any of them represent you well
to their customers?
7. Evaluate your findings. Develop proposals and submit to your top
choice(s).
This process, while thorough, is not a long or expensive process. Many
times, existing vendors will jump at the chance to add a product or
complimentary service to their product mix. CMO Sales can help you “cull”
those companies who are not a good fit for your business.
