This presentation is being made jointly with Zyme, a Key Sponsor of the 2014 Channel Focus North America Conference.

From this presentation, media representatives will learn more about how global enterprises are:

  • Gaining invaluable analytics insights from their global retail and resale channels.
  • Increasing ROI on channel promotions by as much as 39%.
  • Reducing inventory costs by as much as 52%.
  • Addressing the challenges of funding their channel programs when there has been a lack of visibility into past performance and real-time feedback from field sales representatives.
  • Leveraging increased data visibility to optimize processes that discover new channel insights and build fact-based knowledge.

What is CDM? Channel Data Management is a fast-growing discipline among global manufacturers that increases their visibility into the fine details of what is happening within their sales and distribution channels. CDM is designed to deliver decision-grade channel intelligence that leads to increased sales and improved incentive program ROI. With CDM, manufacturers are enabled to increase channel sales by responding to accurate, real-time, granular data from their channels, create better-targeted promotions, and develop more effective partner segmentation.
