Everything You Need to Know and More

Brilliant! I've been involved with industrial distribution for well over twenty years. Rolnicki has proven there is still much to be learned, considered and applied. Must reading for anyone that has anything to do with any channel of distribution.

Excellent book on designing a channel program

It's an easy, quick read and sticks to all the pertinent information without adding unnecessary complexities. The author speaks from experience of the ins and outs of designing and managing the channel. He is able to cover strategy, tactics and theory as well as get down to the nitty gritty personal relationships and politics of being a "channel master".

If you are designing a channel program, this books is an excellent place to start.

All you need to know about distribution channels !

This book is a rare example on how it is easy to teach the concepts, show practical examples, and summarize everything in 250 pages without relying on unnecessary phrases and words that just repeat the same idea again and again and increase the size of the book to 1000 pages. The author provides detailed explanations on the structure and functioning of distribution channels and depicts a way to effectively build a succesful channel from scratch. He goes beyond the basic concepts to show additional and important information on antitrust laws and international distribution and competition.

I would recommend reading this book and keeping it as one of your reference books to consult whenever you're up to consider changes in the distribution system that arise because of competitive pressures, changes in customer behavior, or new product launches.

A very sound, practical guide to channel management. It's one of maybe a half dozen books on the subject that should be part of the "core curriculum". -Larry Friedman author, "The Channel Advantage"

"Channels of distribution is one of the hottest areas in marketing and sales today. And no one understands the subject better than Ken Rolnicki!

Managing Channels of Distribution supplies a much-needed source of knowledge and expertise that professionals can rely on. Based on case studies and real-life experience, the book explains the complexities of managing multiple channels -- distributors, dealers, manufacturer?s reps, VARs, private labels, brokers, wholesalers, retailers, and all the rest.

In the process, Rolnicki explores both macro and micro business influences that affect channel effectiveness. Special attention is paid to the frustrating areas of channel power and conflict, the dangerous issue of legalities, and the most critical topic of all -- the channel design sequence."
