005. How to Digitally Transform for Beginners: Growing Revenue via Digital Channels of Paid, Owned & Earned 0-5%

Instructor: Ken Novak (New to UID)

Level of Complexity: Foundational
9:30 AM - 12:15 PM

Are you generating at least 5% of top-line revenue via digital transaction channels? If not, why? You have invested in technology. You have invested in Managers, Directors, and contractors to manage the technology. But…you are dissatisfied with the ROI.
 
This workshop has one focus...to help OEMs and Distributors build an operational roadmap that prioritizes maximizing margins.HINT: It's not about technology, it's about people. Transformation is more than an eCommerce or IT project. It is literally changing the internal processes of employees by mirroring the process (and matching the expectations) of your customers. It is shifting the mindset of every function within the organization. "That is how we have always done it" is no longer good enough. It is no longer good enough because you are in the middle of a generational shift. The primary buying motion of thumbing through print catalogs with tech specs and part number tables is not how Gen X/Y and Millennials shop.
 
Your customers’ digital standards are defined by their B2C experiences. The basics are becoming competitive advantages (see Amazon’s ease-of-return process). If you are not offering these same levels of service, they will take their business elsewhere.

Selling Through Tough Times

Paul Reilly

As a sales professional, you know that it’s harder to sell in tough times―whether it’s a recession, industry-wide challenge, or global pandemic. You may also have noticed that some salespeople and managers not only survive but thrive through tough times. How do they do it? What do they do to thrive through adversity?

Paul Reilly explaPicture2ins it all in Selling Through Tough Times: Customers buy differently in tough times, so salespeople need to sell differently in tough times. In this eye-opening and indispensable guide, he shows how to develop the right mindset and adapt your skills to prevail in even the most challenging selling climate. His plan includes both immediate, hands-on action plans (including six Daily Mental Flex activities) as well as longer-range strategies to ensure you (and your team) never get caught on the back foot again.

While the principles of selling are constant, Reilly demonstrates how changing your tactics in tough times will not only help you through current difficulties but help you emerge stronger. You’ll discover how to redefine value in customer terms, reposition products and services, and how employ different persuasion tactics. You’ll also learn how to select and pursue the right opportunities, win more deals, and―crucially―protect profit by embracing the “tough timers” mental attitude.

Tough times are inevitable and often unpredictable. But in Selling Through Tough Times, you’ll find the tools and mindset you need to power through them―and come out on top.
