Using numerous real-life examples from global technology corporations, and with a foreword from Tim Curran the Chief Executive Officer of the Global Technology Distribution Council, Technology Distribution Channels explores the chain that makes technology products and services available for market and explains how to make the most of each step of the process. By defining the role and significance of the various partners involved, including distributors, wholesalers and final-tier channel players, it provides a clear understanding of the entire go-to-market process, whilst also explaining channel partners' business models and how to engage with them for effective market access. Technology Distribution Channels covers both the tactical and strategic dimensions of channel economics as well as containing information on accessing and servicing markets and customers, controlling brands, integrating web and online channels, building the value proposition and creating differentiation. As the only approved text book for the Global Technology Distribution Council's Accreditations, Technology Distribution Channels contains expert guidance for both the Certificate and the Diploma programs. Comprehensive and clear, Technology Distribution Channels provides readers with the knowledge needed to improve their business model to ensure maximum market exposure and successful product delivery.

Industry Reviews

"Anyone who thinks distribution is easy should read this book, and keep it by their bed. With a thorough experience of monitoring and advising on the business, channel consultancy VIA's chairman Julian Dent has written what is actually a manual on how the business works. He is also able to point out how it differs from other apparently similar models, and where the special nature of technology product supply kicks in." * IT Europa *
"Recommended by the Global Technology Distribution Council as the reference book for anyone taking either the GTDC Certificate or GTDC Diploma accreditations." * Tim Curran, CEO, Global Technology Distribution Council *
"As a distributor, we use this book to educate all our product and sales managers as to how their performance affects our business model. It also shows our salespeople how they should engage with the final tier to make a compelling case for doing business with us." * Anton Herbst, CEO, MB Technologies *
