Marc Boonen, Corporate Vice-President Sales at LMS International stated, “A growing international scope and an extended product portfolio made the LMS indirect sales channels a strategic aspect of our business. Philip Muls will play an important role in developing the channel strategy of sales representatives and distributor networks in over 25 countries.”
“Expanding LMS business volume in distributed markets with all the language and cultural barriers that come with it is quite challenging,” Philip Muls said. “My mission is to implement best practices in the LMS headquarter sales organization as well as to inject push & pull programs in all our local markets. Through tighter relationships with our worldwide network of distributors, we want to establish stronger customer relationships and increase our market share in a wide variety of industry sectors, such as automotive, aerospace, mechanical and white goods.”
