The traditional field sales role has been disrupted, thanks to the rise of Amazon, other digital platforms and fast-changing customer expectations of the buying process. The first step on any distributor's path to transforming its sales model is attending MDM's second annual Sales GPS Conference, June 26-28 in Denver, CO.

Sales GPS will help you develop a new sales model that adds more value to your company and allows you to fend off existing and emerging digital threats.

Join us for this 1-½ day, hands-on conference designed exclusively for wholesale distribution executives motivated to change their single-channel models into more adaptive and customer-responsive multichannel models.

• Ian Heller, President & COO, ​MDM
• Mike Marks, Managing Partner, Indian River Consulting Group
