Hi,
I hope Mr Stroup is permitted the opportunity of reading this.
I have struggles in-vain to try to put things in place to promote Belden Cabling systems and products in Australia.
I am a Vocational Education Teacher of Cabling Systems, Data Systems, Digital and Analog CCTV at advanced levels, Access Control and also Electrical.
I have spent two years trying to obtain a sample set of each type of cable for a set of display boards I want to build, plus I have made requests for a wholesale or better pricing on end terminations for class room practice (to be binned at the end or they take it back to their employer to show and tell, plus crimping tools of the RexConnect system at Wholesale or better for my class room so I can have the students experience the product and appreciate the merit.
To date I have had ZERO success. I have even phone your Singapore office only to be told you don’t support your offerings in such a way and there is no office, all representatives are sales people alone and they are all over the place travelling.
Rather unprofessional I think and sadly totally lacking in any idea of what it is to promote and market.
What’s the problem?
As a previous specialist in Change Skills I was employed as an Administrator for Thomson Prometric to evaluate and report the performance issues they had in the APAC region. The company had declared Net income of $2.2B US in that year, 2002. That lead to major reforms that worked to the best interests of the organisation.
I suspect I am seeing a worse example in Belden APAC.
