Demand Generation: Plan and execute local promotional activities, mechanic loyalty programs, and workshops to create brand awareness and demand in the market. Training & Support: Provide product knowledge and process training to the distributor's sales team and the network staff (e.g., at petrol stations). Market Intelligence: Monitor and analyze competitor activities, market trends, pricing strategies, and new product developments, reporting insights to the head office for strategic planning. Reporting & Administration: Prepare and maintain accurate daily, weekly, and monthly sales reports, sales forecasts, and track performance against targets using CRM or ERP systems. Logistics Coordination: Coordinate with the logistics team to ensure timely product availability and manage stock levels at distributor/depot locations. Payment Collection & Credit Control: Ensure timely payment collection from distributors and manage credit limits effectively. Customer Service & Issue Resolution: Handle customer complaints and product-related queries, often providing technical support or coordinating with the technical team for resolution.
