    Evidencia 2: Workshop “Distribution channels”

    Conocer en qué consiste la selección de los canales de distribución y manejar este


    tema en el idioma inglés le permite ampliar el campo de acción hacia otros países de
    cualquier empresa que desee exportar un producto o servicio y con ello aumentar sus
    ingresos; en caso de contar con clientes o socios de habla inglesa.

    Por lo anterior y para desarrollar esta evidencia, consulte el material de formación


    denominado Distribution channels y los siguientes materiales complementarios:

     Vocabulary.

     English prepositions.

    Luego de estas consultas, resuelva el siguiente taller en inglés:

    1. Lea cuidadosamente la siguiente conversación:

    Susan: Good morning Mr. White.

    Mr. White: Good morning, Ms. Susan. Can we start the meeting?
    Susan: Of course, Mr. White. I have the options on the board.

    Mr. White: That’s good. Remember, we need to choose the most suitable distribution
    strategy for our products.

    Susan: We have three strategies: Intensive, exclusive and selective. Intensive


    strategy pretends to reach the largest possible number of POS (Point of Sale), but
    unfortunately it’s difficult to control. That’s because we would have to deal with many
    intermediaries.

    Mr. White: What about the exclusive strategy?

    Susan: It’s different from the first one. Only it’s necessary one POS by each
    geographic area, no matter if it’s retailer or wholesaler.

    Mr. White: Sounds god to me. And the last one?


    Susan: Well, it’s the selective strategy. It’s the intermediate strategy between the
    other ones.

    Mr. White: I don’t know. I like the first one, but I don’t know how profitable it is.
    Hhhhmmm, well. What do you think?

    Susan: Well, I consider that the selective strategy is the best.

    Mr. White: You’re right. Well done.

    Susan: Thanks, Mr. White.

    Economic aspects – understanding of cannel emergence


    Economic reasons are the foremost determinant of channel structure. The
    emergence of the wide variety of intermediaries can be explained in terms of four
    logically related steps in an economic process:

     Intermediaries can increase the efficiency of the process of exchange,


     They align the quantities and assortments produced with the quantities and
    assortments consumed,
     They make transactions routine, and
     They facilitate the searching process.

    Dependence and cooperation

    Each member of a distribution channel is dependent upon the behaviour of other


    channel members. Four different approaches have been used to assess
    dependence levels in channel relationships:

     The ‘sales and profit’ approach, which postulates that the larger the
    percentage of sales and profit contributed by the source firm, the greater the
    target’s dependence on the source.

     The ‘role performance’ approach, which assesses the firm’s role performance
    in carrying out its role in relation to another company down or up the channel.

     The ‘specific assets –offsetting investment’ approach, which maintains that


    offsetting investments help to safeguard the target company against
    opportunism by the source.
     The ‘trust’ approach, in which a long-term relationship is built on the extent to
    which companies trust one another.1

    a. Three.
    b. Two.
    c. Five.

    d. Intermediaries.

    4. The ‘trust’ approach is based on:

    a. The role of another company.


    b. The percentage of sales.
    c. How much companies trust each other.
    d. Channel members.
