Distribution
The backbone of any distributor is your brand promise.
We help distributors compete on more than price and availability.
Distributors are essential to how industries operate, but are rarely positioned that way. Candybox helps distributors define why they matter beyond what's on the shelf, then drives the digital programs that protect existing customers and win new ones.
Trusted by distribution partners, including Marathon Hardware.
Sample KPIs we move

How we drive growth
We define why you matter beyond price and availability, then run search, email, and account-based programs that protect existing customers and win new ones.
Challenges & solutions
Our customers see us as interchangeable with other distributors.
We define your strategic value - service, depth, reliability, expertise - and rebuild the brand experience around it.
Our digital experience doesn't match the size of our business.
We modernize your brand message, website and digital footprint, so doing business with you matches the reputation you've built.
We can't predictably grow wallet share with existing customers.
We build account-based and lifecycle marketing programs that systematically increase your customers' share of wallet.

How does Candybox help distributors grow?
We define why your business matters strategically, modernize the digital experience, and run the ABM and lifecycle programs that grow accounts and acquire new ones.
Can you help us build or improve our e-commerce platform?
Yes. From strategy and UX through development, integration, and ongoing optimization.
Do you work with industrial, building products, or specialty distributors?
All of the above. Our distribution experience spans hardware, building products, industrial supply, and specialty B2B.
What KPIs do you focus on for distributor marketing?
New account acquisition, wallet share growth, and customer retention.
How is distributor marketing different from manufacturing marketing?
Distributors sell relationships and service as much as products. Marketing has to reflect that – and reinforce it across every touchpoint, especially digital.
