This electronics company, specializing in sensor design, identified a small North American distributor with a reputation for quick decision-making. Although this distributor was mainly regional and not very active in other sectors, the company decided to optimize this relationship by launching a proactive marketing and sales effort. Originating in Germany, the company covered the costs of national trade shows, generating significant leads to strengthen its market presence.
The marketing effort resulted in the generation of 1,600 contacts via emails and calls, resulting in 398 qualified leads. At the same time, the company provided technical sales support by carrying out 21 sample tests with detailed follow-up of returns.

Building on this momentum, the company rapidly expanded its distribution network. It signed non-exclusive agreements with two further distributors, covering different sectors and regions, and also involved three sales representation companies. This significant growth was achieved in less than 12 months, testifying to the success of the marketing strategy and the company’s ability to rapidly diversify its network to boost revenues.
