It's time to accomplish those double-digit online sales projections you've been working toward.
Did you know that the average distributor gets approximately 20% of their annual sales from 80% of their customers? This “long tail” of customers can feel fragmented, transitory, and expensive to serve.
Now, more than ever, distributors are realizing the need for self-service for this cohort of customers. This means enabling customers to check product availability, receive price quotes, and place orders online. The biggest benefit of converting customers to self-service is a lower cost to serve.
Other benefits include:
A better customer experience
More loyal customers
An increase in revenue via a reduction in customer churn
A significant increase in cross-sales
