Seamless distribution Systems AB held its first post-Covid Sales Summit at Dubai in the last week of October to fine-tune product strategy, streamline global operations and strategize sales enablement for 2022.

The Objective of the Summit

SDS functions spanning across the globe, including  sales, marketing, product, operations, and engineering, put their heads together at this summit to confer on the industry wide implications of Covid-19. The underlying goal of this conference was to develop robust solutions that could work seamlessly in the new telecom ecosystem. Another critical objective was to build a cohesive growth strategy that expanded the existing customer base while championing satisfaction across all current accounts. 

Over the course of five days, the teams participated in interactive panels, roundtables and workshops  to exchange perspectives on the challenges, changes and transformations that impact sales in today’s telecom market. They actively participated in peer discussions, discussing their successes and lessons that were learned in the course of customer engagement. They also shared their respective discoveries when it comes to skills and systems – in order to remain successful in the present and sustain that success in the months and years ahead.
