7 Sales Lessons from the Volunteer Front

Posted by Jaimee Saliba on Fri, Nov 23, 2012

Most of us ate turkey with friends and family in a warm house yesterday. Today many are shopping. Meanwhile on Long Island, Staten Island and the Jersey Shore, volunteer organizations are still hard at work cleaning up the mess from Sandy and helping people move their lives forward. Instead of Thanksgiving at home with family, military veterans volunteering with Team Rubicon probably ate a donated meal with fellow workers or community members. Maybe they got to rest their muscles for a day.

Laboratory Sales Growth, Building Science Brands and Sponsorships

Posted by BCI Staff on Tue, Jan 10, 2012


Coming to the world of science sales by way of the laboratory, new laboratory sales representatives may dismiss the value of advertising, marketing, sponsorships and related services in the process of selling lab equipment and services.  In some cases when a product and its brand are ingrained in the customer's memory and familiar from repeated, loyal use it may sell itself.  However, in most instances, effective branding is needed to ensure loyalty and familiarity with a company's products and services.

Why should lab suppliers build their brands?
  • Strong brands benefit from ongoing credibility and trust associated with high quality. This is especially important in the world of science experimentation where any variable that can be eliminated saves time in answering the researcher’s questions.
  • Brand recognition can drive laboratory product sales as a researcher becomes comfortable with your company and products.
  • A strong brand allows you to stand out from competitors with sound-alike and look-alike lab products and services.
  • In general, it is easier to command higher prices for known brands with recognized high quality.
  • New products from familiar brands generate interest more quickly from the active research community than similar products from unknown companies.
