Suggestions to resolve the problem regarding the irregular visit of the sales person to the C and D class Retailers and Shortage of supplies to the distributors.

Irregular visit of the salesperson:
a) We can give good amount of incentives to the salesperson who visit the C and D class Retailers 2, 3 times in a week.
b) We can also make a minimum visit criteria which is must for every salesperson, for E.g. every salesperson must visit the C and D class retailers minimum 2 times in a week.
c) The more the salesman sold the products to the C and D class retailers the more Good incentives he will get For E.g. we will also give him free tickets to Movies or if he performs very well than we can give him a free international tour, in this way the salesperson gets motivated and they start visiting the C and D class retailers more often.

Shortage of supplies to the Distributors
a) Difference in Forecasted sales figures and the Factory production figures is happened every time, because most of the time the production capacity of the factory is limited and it cannot be extended immediately as it involves high cost and additional equipment’s to increase the production, so when this problem arrives when forecasted sales figures doesn’t match the factory production figures in that case company can make a policy in which it can explain that our production capacity is only this For E.g. we can only produce 100 cigarette’s in a week or our production capacity is limited to only 100 cigarettes per week and this policies can be explained to the C and D class retailers, that we can only supply 100 cigarette’s in a week not more than that but we can give you special discount if u buy from us or we can supply u these cigarette’s at a cheap rate than anyone else in the market in that case retailers will buy the cigarette’s despite of the Sales forecast that shows 200 cigarettes is going to sold this week but only 100 cigarettes are supplied. In this way we can resolve the

    Continually keeping customer records up to date will be important to the proper function of the program for the income process. According to the Intranet that belongs to the company it is already in the middle of incorporating a system to track customer purchase history. I recommend that the company should focus mainly on procedures of cash flow into and out of the company. It is important for the company to combine the systems that control and track cash flow in and out. The difference between cash inflow and outflow is how the financial worth of the investment will be calculated. The cash inflow is in the form of reduced costs in production and operations or increased sales of more products. The Frequent Shopper Program would be an investment cost of immediate cash outflow. In the years to come, cash inflow will be balanced by cash outflow resulting from the investment. If the store receives enough cash inflow to cover expenses, then the program is profitable and the company can plan on an increase in sales for years to come. For the development of the Frequent Shopper Program, the store must include all expenditures in every field associated with this program. Some of the main expenditures will be related to advertising, market research, marketing, website redevelopment, and online…

    Peak Garage Door Inc. has set a goal to increase their sales for 2004. Garage door industry is expecting a growth of 2.4% while the management of Peak is looking to increase company’s sales 26.4%. The company currently has 50 exclusive dealers and 300 non-exclusive dealers. Management has three proposals in front of them. The first suggestion is to increase the number dealers in their existing markets. The second recommendation is to develop an exclusive franchise agreement with existing non-exclusive dealers. The third recommendation is to decrease the number of dealers and focus company’s resources on increasing support for the existing dealers. Of course there is an option for them to leave everything as it is. My suggestion is to go with the second recommendation due to the fact that exclusive dealers produced 70% of company’s sales and non-exclusive dealers contributed only 30%. In order for Peak Garage Doors Inc. to reach their sales goal for ‘04 they will have to gain more exclusive dealers since they contribute much more profit to the company.…

    The supply and management of a company have various difficulties in trying to manipulate the logistics of supply and making analysis of the whole performance of the supplying team. These issues apparently result from low surge and have had great inconveniences to stock and management. The reasons for these intensive difficulties are a result of malfunctioning of one group or department and thus disrupting the paths of supply. Prior to lack of frequency in stock-outs, poor customer response and high prices on the products of the supplying enterprise have the greatest impact then due customers.

    One of the main causes, mentioned as the “root of the problem” by a summer intern student from Stanford University, was the forecasting system. The demand oscillations and wide range of products due to localization often contributed to forecast errors. This innacurate forecasts were the basis for safety stock calculation creating high inventory levels and backorders. DC’s were discoordinated and divided in terms of inventory policys due to the lack of a scientific rule on this.…
