Strengths
· Developing loyal resellers
· 32 branches reaching 250 cities all over India
· Value Added Distribution

· Finance
· Logistics
· Marketing
· Product Management
· HR

· Technical support
· Pre and post sales service support
· Logistics management
This structure is advantageous
to their vendors, since they only have one point of contact for the entire
market. The local functions in each state are sales and technical support.
The sales teams are
well trained on product knowledge. Regular technical and business up gradation
to the team flows down to the channel partners making them empowered to have an
edge above the rest with their customers.
Subject offers IT resellers a unique bundle of services that maximizes
the profit of their businesses:

· AMD
· Benq
· Epson
· Hitachi

· Lacie
· Lexar
· Logitech
· Matrox
· Philips
· Samsung
· Umax
· Wacom
Pre/Post sales support
The company account
managers are happy to assist resellers with customer meetings, seminars or other
sales activities. By using the company account managers, resellers get extra
sales resources.
Value added distribution
Their vendors
understand their VAD concept and feel the need to introduce their products to
the market through a structured and efficient approach. When introducing new
technology to the market, the efficiency in terms of timing and cost is vital.
Their vendors know that Subject can bring their products to the market faster
and cheaper than they themselves can.
VAD has two dimensions:
· Broad line
· Focused verticals
· Corporate
· Corporate Gifting
· Retail
· Gaming
· Telecom
· Consumables
· Enterprise
· Resellers
· Internal Storage
· External Storage
· Digital Imaging
· Digital Video
· Digital Pre-Press
· Photo Retail
Subject has business groups
to focus on specific verticals addressing similar channels - PC Components
business group, PC Peripherals business group and Creative business group
ensuring goals on defined verticals are achieved.
The company sells exclusively through resellers only. They never make
any exceptions to this rule. An important part of the VAD concept in the focus
area dimension is bringing knowledge about new technologies to the market.
Product availability and price competitiveness are not the only factors that
determine purchase behavior. For the customers to benefit from their
investments, choosing the right solution is essential. Cost of ownership is not
just a matter of getting the products to function properly but also about
choosing and implementing the right solutions. By working very closely with
their vendors and resellers they bring knowledge about new technologies to the
market because they know that only the right knowledge will sell the products
they carry.

They have found that the
most effective way to bring products to the marketplace is to create a
push/pull effect. They develop the channel through marketing, seminars,
pre-sales, pilot-installations and sales visits in order to create awareness
and interest for the products. This channel development process is carried out
in close co-ordination with end-user marketing activities. The co-ordination
between the market’s push/pull enforces the market adoption and reseller
willingness to invest in knowledge about the products.
The company has a rich experience
in IT product marketing and all this is available to their partners. They will
design and implement marketing campaigns together with their partners from
ideas to funding.
Every day the company generates sales leads. These leads come from their
