The competitive dynamics of the consumer goods industry require dedicated, passionate, and skilled teams who are driven to assist in improving range, the share of space and overall category performance via building trusted relationships with key store stakeholders.
CROSSMARK provides clients with a flexible and agile model to suit their business objectives in a consultative partnership across the independent landscape of Australia.
We have a tried and tested sales call process using our ’7 steps to in-store success’ and utilise customer-centric buyer behaviours to help our staff understand who they are selling to. Staff are also equipped with technology to provide live updates on results daily or weekly to assist our clients in tracking their objectives.
CROSSMARK has the people that will make a difference to YOUR brands with an in-house talent team who work specifically with onboarding team members. Capability and relationships are key and they're driven by the people engaging with stores every day representing your brands.
We work with you to design your strategy into the independents using data, insights, and retail experience to shape our approach. It's a complex universe, particularly within the Grocery channel, with every player having different wants and needs. We help you navigate through this and align with your greater business retail strategy and goals.
The nature of the channel requires expert and professional salespeople with the focus and capability to tell your brand's story and deliver your priorities and objectives. This is supported with data to influence outcomes at a store-level.
Maximising sales with speed, scale, flexibility, and reach is optimised with on-demand deployment to activate previously negotiated deals, cut products into shelves, drive sales messages, and increase product awareness.
Head office representation with the multi-site owners (MSOs) and key accounts to drive strategic sales growth and objectives.
Growing distribution and sales with expert salespeople visiting the right stores and negotiating at a store-level.

Being insight-driven and data-led can help brands and retailers run their operations more efficiently. Data can also help to quickly identify opportunities or challenges, allowing businesses to make operational changes or develop strategies in response to market conditions.

In the independent channels where stores are able to decide what products they range and sell, we represent your brand to gain ranging and distribution. As the arms and legs of your business, we engage, influence, and negotiate with every layer of the channel to drive your retail and sales objectives. Often that means negotiating with stores themselves, state and national multi-site owners (MSOs), and wholesalers/distributors.
CROSSMARK is heavily invested in its teams across every retail sector including impulse and convenience. The P&C channel is heavily sought after and our team is experienced in helping brands navigate the process, which may also include planograms and POS to optimise sales and visibility.
Feel free to reach out to us via the contact us form and have your brief/doc ready with any details of what you’re after. If you don’t have anything prepared or just in the discovery phase we can just have a chat and go from there.
