PROS Webinar: Realizing Revenue, Profit Growth for Wholesale Distributors
April 26, 2016
Media Alert
WHAT: Global wholesale distribution executives kick-off every year with familiar emotional mantras and always with theme and messages surrounding growth: Get to a Fast Start; Crush it in 2016; or In it to Win. 2016 is no different, with executives expecting their teams to deliver revenue growth up to 10 percent.
Despite the C-suite focus on growth, a soft economy and sagging sales are standing in the way of 2016 success. Companies face increasing pressure to drive both top- and bottom line results.
This informative webinar will offer insights and real-world examples of how data science-driven analytics can help wholesale distributors consistently realize their revenue and profit potential:
- Adopt data science to transform pricing strategies into a competitive advantage
- Leverage prescriptive analytics to accelerate sales growth
- Supercharge the value of CRM with embedded guidance to simplify the customer experience
WHO: Join PROS and its guest speakers:
- Mike Marks, Managing Partner, Indian River Consulting Group
- Sean Duclaux, Director of Industry Marketing, PROS
