Hello. May I use my amazing new interactive sales tool to help me sell you something?

Absolutely. That is so cool. I’ll take two of whatever you’re selling.

Of course, we all wish it were this easy.

A few key considerations…

•  An iPad should not be a one-off tactic

•  Integrate with the overall sales and marketing strategy

•  View as part of a long-term program

•  Continually evaluate the benefit to the customer (and the sales force) – every app/function must deliver value

•  The content and function must mirror your sales philosophy, processes and approach

•  Ensure you’re ready to support it over the long-haul

The revolution has begun. This fall SCA’s complete line of products will become Tork. Take your first steps to joining the revolution at torkrevolution.com

In 2001, they entered the North American Tissue market via the acquisition of several paper companies and went to market as a manufacturing-driven company made up of a disparate collection of product brand names, quality levels and price points.

A few years later, when it came time for them to introduce their global masterbrand of paper products and dispensing systems – called Tork – into NA, they looked to Avenue to help them develop a launch strategy to transform the way they went to market.

The story…

Following the successful launch of Tork, we’ve continued to help them improve the effectiveness of their marketing and sales efforts over the past seven years, through 100s of initiatives.

A specific area of focus has been helping them evolve from a primarily product features and price-based sales approach, to a more diagnostic and consultative approach.

Mindset, + Thought capital, + Processes, + Training, + Tools

= Success

Helping a sales force of more than 200 reps (and 1000s of DSRs) evolve against this goal requires introducing new ways of thinking, new skills and new processes.

And, of course…new tools.

The Tork sales environment…

•  Product category seen as a commodity

•  Sale reps often fall into their old habits

•  Many on-site environments are not laptop-friendly

•  Many customers are “multi-tasking” during the sales meeting

•  A vast product portfolio requires a vast amount of collateral

•  A wide ranges of options

•  Can be difficult to get the DSRs attention and invited to the sales call

The right tool for the job:

The iPad…

•  Presents the image of an innovative company

•  Guides to desired sales processes

•  Helps support the position of a consultative partner – armed with the knowledge/tools to help solve their business problems

•  Allows the rep and the customer to explore solutions together

•  Easy to use standing, in tight spaces, or when “on the go”

•  Green benefits: less paper needed for catalogs and reprints

•  Creates demand with DSRs

The overview…

A necessary part of an iPad program launch:

1) Outlines the program objectives and requirements:

Ensures that all development takes into account what makes a good app – versus what is better left as a print or online tool.

2) Specifies how the program will be managed:

Details roles and responsibilities – a project management team for IT and daily details, and a cross-functional Steering Committee to evaluate and prioritize all new developments and release cycles.

3) Details processes and release cycles

Defines who are reviewers and approvers, how updates will be made, and how often new or improved apps will be released to the sales force.

The Program Charter

MDM solutions allow organizations to manage both the hardware and software of a device remotely:

Benefits include:

1) Device Management & Tracking

The entire fleet of devices is managed through one screen. IT administrators can track devices and manage software based on business rules.

2) Over the Air (“OTA”) Builds

Custom app updates can be pushed remotely to the fleet in lieu of requiring a manual update. This mirrors the commercial app store process.

3) IT Policy Management

The organization can restrict and enforce what apps are used on the devices. Almost all behavior can be monitored and controlled.
