In a bid to educate its Champions about growth prospects in the booming Lifestyle technology business, RP tech India, a value-added distributor recently concluded a knowledge seminar in Mumbai.

Leading brands, Audio Technica, APC, Belkin, Fitbit, Logitech, Plantronics and SanDisk conducted in-knowledge sessions and showcased their latest products offering.

Lifestyle trends @ RP tech is a unique platform which connects our Champions to vendors and facilitates healthy business talks between them. This is also an opportunity for us to address Champions’ pain points and take their feedback about current market sentiments to decide the roadmap. This year along with knowledge sessions, RP tech India also included skills development and team building workshop as an added feature in the two-day event.

Explaining the objective of the event, Rajesh Goenka, Director, Sales and Marketing, said, “RP tech India is gradually shifting from brand centric to consumer-centric organization and this is a major transition in our business philosophy. For the next two years, our core mission will be to promote the complete range of Lifestyle products. This is a revolutionary step and we are trying to inculcate the exchange of ideas between our Champions and vendors to grow this business multi-fold. Our aim is to achieve a minimum of 30 per cent growth from Lifestyle tech vertical and we will continue to empower our Champions and provide them all support in terms of inventory and pricing.”

The participating vendors duly appreciated the initiative of RP tech India. Commenting on the event, Kaushik Tiwari, Senior Manager at Western Digital India said, “Lifestyle trends @ RP tech was a unique platform to meet Champions. It is an opportunity for us to clearly communicate our business objectives, priorities and guide Champions on what we expect from them to help achieve our common goals. The meet was also helpful for us to understand the market feedback from Champions and accordingly polish our marketing initiatives.”

Kartik Bakshi, Country Manager, India & SAARC, Belkin International said, “This is a great initiative for us to engage directly with RP tech Champions. It’s very seldom you get to meet so many enterprising and motivated people under one roof all working towards the same goal and that is to sell your brand. We humbly appreciate that. This training program bridges the gap that we very often see between the sales and the product teams on insights, features and unique selling points. It gives us the platform to provide further knowledge to our distributors and resellers alike – providing them with the ammunition they need when they go out and sell. This is what sets RP tech India apart from its’ competitors that they’re always exploring new ways to provide more value to the brands they represent. We thank them for this opportunity.”

But this event was very different from the last events. The theme Lifestyle tech @ RP tech communicates the renewed focus of the Company. The event also provided us with an opportunity to meet the senior leadership and vendors and interact with them face to face. These type of events help us to improve product knowledge and align ourselves with Company vision.”
