Real-World Sales Transformation for Distributors
The gaps between distributors selling like it’s still 2019 and those who have created more adaptive team-based, digitally-supported sales models keeps widening.

Mike Marks presents strategies, tactics and action steps to build the sales transformation transition plan that’s right for your business.
