In this episode of DriveTime, David Stewart, VP sales and marketing, Wells Vehicle Electronics, talks about the company’s new branding initiative and how he plans to re-introduce Wells to the aftermarket.
Reintroducing Wells Vehicle Electronics as a Legacy Brand
Stewart’s passion has been to bring the Wells Vehicle Electronics brand to the forefront for technicians and distributors. Some of the younger generation may not be familiar with the legacy of the 122-year-old company, Stewart said. Nevertheless, this legacy is what will drive the company forward for years to come, he added.
Driving Brand Awareness Through People
“I think the biggest selling proposition is that you have the right people,” said Stewart. “We have an amazing team. The sales team is out there driving that. They are getting in front of the customers, the technicians, bringing that brand awareness back out there.”
Building a Stronger Sales Force
One of Stewart’s goals when he joined Wells two years ago was to deliver professional-grade products and superior service to customers. To achieve this, the first step was to understand and identify the team that was already in place. Then grow and expand it to a much stronger salesforce. The focus was on the team to make sure they had the right assets in the field to go out and drive that relationship with their customers, Stewart said.
