Gale Media Announces Publication of the Distributor’s Guide to Analytics
Lafayette, CO (PRWEB) March 09, 2015 -- Analytics has evolved rapidly in wholesale distribution channels, fueled in part by the explosion of technology innovation over the past several years but also because of the industry’s natural lifecycle. Companies that establish and build analytic capability can stay ahead of the recent waves of disruption, and the Distributor's Guide to Analytics can help them on this journey.
“The strategic role of analytics and analytic thinking is changing rapidly in every industry and sector of our society, including wholesale distribution, for a single very good reason – better decision making,” says Tom Gale, executive editor, contributing author and president of Gale Media. “Companies find there is a huge return on investment in building a capability and culture based on analytic thinking.”

Gale, MDM Analytics; Brian Gardner, SalesProcess360; Brent Grover, Evergreen Consulting LLC; Randy MacLean, WayPoint Analytics; and Jon Schreibfeder, Effective Inventory Management.

Briggs Co. “This timely collection of best practices is a practical roadmap to help distributors build stronger analytics capabilities.
