Debate: The Blame for Difficult Business Must Not Be Simply Placed on Office Staff

When 'business is hard' becomes a collective sigh, the article argues that a large part of the reason frontline performance is lagging is that headquarters and functional staff, under the guise of 'refined management,' have hijacked salespeople's time and enthusiasm with endless forms, meetings, assessments, and reports. While this resonates widely, the article contends that blaming office staff is simplistic and misses the root cause, which lies not in the office but in the 'rostrum'—the top leadership whose outdated logic and lack of trust drive over-management, ultimately harming business.

Companies are imposing more and heavier assessments on frontline sales, making it harder for them to earn money even when they meet targets. Salespeople are increasingly burdened with endless forms, complex evaluations, meetings, and rules, leading to the sentiment that salespeople suffer under office staff.

The Wisdom of bC Integration: Advance One Step, Retreat Half a Step

The earliest practitioner of deep distribution was TCL, much earlier than the FMCG industry. After TCL implemented deep distribution, many competitors imitated it, but most lost money due to high costs. TCL later revealed the secret: advance one step, retreat half a step. This means reaching deeper into the channel for sales growth while saving costs by retreating, achieving both volume and profit growth. The same wisdom applies to bC integrated user operations.
