“85% of New Products Fail In The Marketplace”

At GreatVines, we believe that the power of a brand is only as good as your ability to sell it. Whether you exist in a 2 or 3-tier distribution system, the most efficient sales team embraces a variety of strategies to build brand visibility and awareness, customer loyalty and consistent growth. Less than 1% of salespeople in our industry are capable of remembering all the actionable data about a customer, much less 100 or more “key accounts”. Tracking customer data, objectives and activities are the cornerstone of any modern sales methodology, and the beverage alcohol industry is no different. This short presentation should provide insights as to how you can empower your sales team to be more efficient.
