Asian markets assessed bottom-up

Distinct GTM archetypes deployed
Situation
The business had operated across Asia for years through a distributor network that had grown incrementally. Each relationship had made sense in isolation. Collectively, they had created a commercial structure that bore almost no relationship to where the actual market opportunity sat.
Approach
Bottom-up potential mapping for every Asian market. Market clustering into three strategic archetypes. Tailored GTM recommendation per cluster. Resource plan and subsidiary launch support for priority markets.
Impact
Two new subsidiaries opened within eighteen months. Double-digit regional sales growth achieved and sustained. Commercial team left with a repeatable framework for assessing new markets independently.
Results visualised
Market potential vs resource coverage, before and after
Illustrative view across 50 assessed markets, grouped by GTM archetype. The misalignment between potential and coverage was the core finding that drove the new strategy.
