Who it is for

Who outsourced Field Sales is for

Marconix provides Field Sales for businesses across industry verticals that need physical sales execution, market coverage or field-based customer acquisition. Field selling suits situations where buyers need in-person visits or where products need distribution.

Industries

Industry-agnostic Field Sales across verticals

Marconix’s Field Sales is industry agnostic. The same operating approach is adapted to the roles, beat plans and KPIs of each vertical, so the service is not limited to a fixed list of sectors.

Categories where field selling is common include FMCG, consumer durables and electronics, building materials, agri-inputs, healthcare, BFSI and fintech merchant acquisition, telecom, and B2B services selling to SMEs. These are examples rather than limits.

The problem

Problems outsourced Field Sales helps address

These are common field-selling challenges. The right scope for each business is agreed during the engagement.

  • Gaps in market coverage

    Territories go under-served when there are too few people or too little planning. Territory and beat plans give coverage a structure.

  • Slow distribution expansion

    Opening and activating distributors and retailers takes sustained in-person effort. A dedicated field team can focus on it.

  • Visits that do not convert

    Visiting an outlet is not the same as winning business. Trained executives work to turn outlet and customer visits into orders.

  • Inconsistent in-outlet execution

    Visibility and availability slip without regular attention. Merchandising during visits keeps outlet execution consistent.

  • Inefficient routes and travel

    Poorly planned routes waste selling time. Route management is used to optimise coverage, productivity and travel.

  • Limited visibility of the field

    Field activity is hard to manage when it cannot be seen. GPS-based check-ins, activity tracking and manager-led reviews make it visible.

Scope of work

What Marconix’s Field Sales team handles

Marconix’s Field Sales service covers six core field activities. Which of them are in scope is agreed for each client.

Request a Proposal →

  1. Market Coverage

    Market coverage builds productive territory. Marconix segments territories, outlets and opportunities, and deploys field executives to cover them through planned beats.

  2. New Distributor Acquisition

    The team opens and activates distribution opportunities, and acquires retailers and customers in person, so that a client’s products reach more points of sale.

  3. Order Taking

    Order taking converts outlet and customer visits into business. Field executives present the offer and capture orders during planned visits.

  4. Merchandising

    Merchandising improves visibility, availability and execution at the outlet, so the product is present and presented as intended when the customer decides.

  5. Route Management

    Route management optimises coverage, productivity and travel, so that planned routes put field time where it is most likely to create business.

  6. Field Intelligence

    Field intelligence captures market, competitor and outlet signals from the ground, giving clients a view of what is happening in the territories where their teams work.

Marconix Field Sales can be deployed in several ways, depending on what the client needs from the field.

How Marconix manages Field Sales teams

Marconix handles recruitment, training, coaching, monitoring and upliftment of Field Sales teams, so clients can direct commercial priorities while Marconix runs the team.

  • Recruitment

    Marconix recruits field executives and supervisors with profiles that fit the territory and the role.

  • Training

    Product, pitch and execution training builds trained Field Sales teams.

  • Coaching, monitoring and upliftment

    Teams are coached, monitored and supported to improve their performance over time.

  • Attrition and replacements

  • Employment, payroll and compliance

    Outsourced field staff are employed through Marconix or its HR partner, which manages payroll, statutory benefits such as PF and ESI, travel reimbursements and labour-law compliance, including India’s new labour codes. You direct commercial priorities; Marconix handles employment administration and day-to-day supervision.

Operating model

Monitoring, reporting and field verification

Field activity is only useful when it can be seen and verified. Marconix’s operating model uses seven mechanisms to do that.

Field-force activity tracking

Daily activity, productivity and quality are tracked, so the client can see what the team is doing in the market.

GPS-based check-ins

Field executives check in using GPS, giving a location record of field visits.

Geo-tagged field photographs

Photographs taken in the field carry location tags, supporting verification of outlet visits and execution.

Digital order capture

Orders are captured digitally in the field, so order value and lines per call can be reported.

Supervisor and manager-led governance

Supervisors and managers lead field governance and review performance with the team, using results to coach and to adjust coverage.

Reporting and field intelligence

Reporting is delivered against the agreed KPI set, and market, competitor and outlet signals gathered on visits are reported back.

Client visibility and governance

Live client dashboards, agreed compliance checkpoints and structured reporting give clients visibility into field activity, execution quality and performance.
