We’re up to number 19 in our series of posts on questions to consider when preparing a business plan. You can access previous entries from the sidebar on your right or via the Series Page.
Some food for thought…. this time we’re asking some distribution questions:
Distribution
- Have you compared the costs of the various distribution methods?
- Are deliveries being made within a reasonable timeframe?
- Do you have any complaints re distribution methods used?
If you are using an external distributor, do you:
- hold meetings with the distributor?
- train the distributor’s staff in your products?
- set annual targets for your distributors?
In the next post of this series we will consider “Business Operations”.
