Ensure all customer interactions, quotes, and deal stages are properly documented to support reliable revenue forecasting and team collaboration.
- Product and Market Intelligence: Stay current on industry trends, competitor activities, and product developments in the electrical distribution and renewables space. Provide regular feedback to Product and Marketing teams about customer needs, market demands, and competitive pressures to help inform product development and go-to-market strategies.
