Online Distribution Channels


A distribution channel refers to the network utilized to deliver your product or service to consumers. Poor distribution can be a significant factor contributing to the failure of startups and small businesses. In some cases, the distribution channel can outweigh the importance of the product itself. We've all witnessed instances where inferior products thrive while superior ones struggle to gain traction.


Maintaining a robust online presence is crucial in today's digital landscape.



Here's how to proceed:


  1. Explore Various Online Channels: 

  • Organic Growth/Word of Mouth

  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

  • Public Relations and Speaking Engagements

  • Social Media Platforms (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat)

  • Referral Programs from Friends

  • Community Engagement

  • Paid Online Advertising (Google, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram)

  • Influencer Campaigns

  • Paid Referral Programs

  1. Eliminate Unsuitable Channels: Start by removing channels that are evidently unsuitable for your business.
