EXPERIENCE FOR GROWTH IN AFRICA

Growth Managed Services

Put experience to work. Accelerate results.

Experienced people, proven tools and local management, mobilised around the growth outcome you need.

Intrade’s Growth Managed Services brings specialists in information, technology and African trade operations into your business. We run or augment day-to-day planning, data and field processes with expert use of Intrade’s technology. Our trade-channel business process outsourcing (BPO) and embedded support provide a rapidly deployable route to productive sales coverage, stronger execution and measurable progress.

Planning with the customer and local field team

Experience that shortens the route to delivery

Intrade is its own first user. Our teams have deployed Intrade.App, workflow configurations, measurement systems and quality controls in our own operations. Years of merchant recruitment, channel development, sales, merchandising and research have taught us how to turn information into practical plans and manage delivery under local conditions.

Customers benefit directly from that experience. We bring established workflows, training methods and quality controls, then adapt them to your objectives and market. Our specialists know how to interpret the information, configure the work, coach users and resolve exceptions. This helps accelerate mobilisation and adoption while keeping delivery focused on the result.

Intrade is its own first user: experience becomes reusable operating capability

DEEP: Discover → Execute → Expand → Progress

Managed Services puts Intrade’s DEEP method into daily practice: Execute the plan, Expand distribution and channel reach, and Progress through evidence and performance review. What teams learn in the field informs the next discovery cycle.

Managed Services turns Execute, Expand and Progress into daily work

Support inside your business and in the field

An embedded analyst or operations lead can maintain customer records, build targeted Pareto routes, prepare call plans and turn performance reports into action. Local managers and supervisors coordinate teams, support adoption and follow through on exceptions. This connects your sales, analytics and trade-marketing priorities to everyday work.

The same capability supports merchant onboarding, van sales, demand creation, merchandising, census, trade audits, market and consumer research, trade asset management and last-mile distribution support. Each programme combines the people, technology and controls appropriate to the task.

For example, a distributor can take a Census360 route plan into a managed rollout: prepare the outlet lists, mobilise representatives, recruit priority merchants and review coverage and execution. The operating team uses the resulting evidence to adjust the next call cycle.

FROM COMMERCIAL PRIORITIES TO DAILY DELIVERY

Make your information and
technology work harder for growth.

Our specialists put your Intrade solutions to work and manage progress against agreed outcomes.

Turn connected capabilities into practical outcomes

Put market intelligence into productive routes. With Census360, Market360 and the Data Console, our specialists turn verified outlets and customer data into priority lists, Pareto routes and call plans for your sales force automation (SFA) system or Intrade.App.
Make field workflows part of daily execution. Around Intrade.App and Audit360, our teams configure tasks, train users, supervise activity and coordinate corrective action. Merchandising, availability checks and outlet recruitment become managed programmes with evidence of completion.
Help connected commerce reach the channel. Alongside Supply Chain Commerce and Data Orchestration, we support merchant onboarding, rep-assisted ordering, order follow-up and local adoption across distributor and merchant channels.

Market intelligence, field workflows and connected commerce become managed programmes
