Sales, Field Sales, Merchandising, POS Merchandising
The challenge
CPM were asked to provide a solution to cover 738 retail outlets in Northern Ireland with sales and merchandising services. This coverage was to be achieved at the most efficient resource cost possible.
Our Solution
On analysing the market and the call-file, CPM proposed a solution that would provide a more targeted and impactful service, whilst only utilizing 50% of the previous resource levels. CPM recruited a field sales team comprising a Sales Manager, 3 Direct Sales Reps and 6 Indirect Sales Reps.
The top 20% of stores are called on weekly with the next 50% called upon fortnightly, the remaining monthly. Key accounts are as follows:
During 2013, we increased share of space by 2% (an improvement of 10%).
For 2013 sales revenue increased by 6% despite a reduction in resources of almost 50% and a declining overall market.
