- When the mail from 2-M Hydraulics was received by Rahul Deshpande, the CEO of RK Consultant, he immediately talked on the intercom to his vice president, Arun Pande, to personally handle the enquiry. “If you succeed to get this order and execute the same to the complete satisfaction of 2-M Hydraulics, it would open doors for many more orders in future,” said the CEO.
"Yes, I agree with you, but for that I will fly down to Bangalore immediately to meet with key people in 2M-Hydraulics to understand clearly their needs, before submitting our proposal," responded Arun.
“Why not, go ahead, and let me know if you need any help from me,” said Rahul and hung up. Arun looked at the website of 2-M Hydraulics and gathered information that the company had a technical tie-up with a German company and wanted to manufacture and market hydraulic valves, pumps and other accessories in India. The company had decided on a distribution strategy of selling its products through dealers, who were expected to design, assemble, sell and service hydraulic power packs required for various applications for material movements. Arun spoke with Srinivas Rao, general manager of 2-M Hydraulics, and fixed an appointment to meet with him.
Arun gathered information about market potential in major metros and cities, competition, and requirement of 2-M Hydraulics. His doubt about “can we get dealers in India performing so many tasks” was answered by German manager, “If we can get them in Germany, why not in India."
Arun came back to his office at Pune, discussed with Rahul, and sent his proposal to Srinivas Rao. Within one week, Arun received a call from Srinivas Rao, asking Arun to come over to Bangalore for a presentation to a team of senior executives to be followed by negotiation.--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
