About This Live Webcast

Digital tools are changing the way we work and the way that wholesaler-distributors and manufacturers serve customers, work with suppliers, and, ultimately, drive profits and growth. Companies in the supply chain are evaluating and using digital tools including websites, social media, e-commerce, advanced analytics, CRM, mobility and multichannel solutions. As adoption and use grow, finding new ways to create value and differentiate services is top of mind for business leaders. This is good news because customers, suppliers and competitors are moving ahead and using digital tools. Distributors and manufacturers may lead, but at the very least, they must keep up.

In this webcast about digital tools, sponsored by Insite Software, NAW Author Mark Dancer will share key findings from his upcoming research study, Becoming a Digital Distributor: Strategies and Tools That Create Value, which will be published by the NAW Institute for Distribution Excellence in January. 

Joining Mark will be Linda Taddonio, Chief eCommerce Strategy Officer for Insite Software. Together they will share perspectives on these questions that are taken from the pages of this soon-to-be-published research study:

• What is the current state of adoption and use of digital tools by wholesaler-distributors and manufacturers?
• How are digital tools being used to create value and generate business results?
• What are the key strategic, organizational, technology, and implementation issues and opportunities?
• How can digital tools help distributors and manufacturers strengthen their partnership and collaboration?
• What can you do to get your company moving forward to keep up with developments and build competitive advantage?
