Stockies AWARDS
2024
Hello everyone. I’m Dan, editor of News in the Channe l and Print in the Channel , the sister magazines that are shaking up the reseller and print reseller channels, providing news, insight and advice to thousands of readers each issue.
Congratulations to all those that have been nominated in the Stockies – and especially to those that have won. To have an awards show based on data rather than subjective opinion is a breath of fresh air and really shows which companies and products are performing the best in this dynamic and ever- changing sector. Change is something that News in the Channel and Print in the Channel have as running themes. After the turmoil of recent years, businesses in the sector – manufacturers, distributors and resellers – have proved their resilience and those that have thrived the most have been those that have not been afraid to
innovate and seek out new opportunities. With the advancement of digitalisation in many businesses, along with ever- increasing demands for data to bring competitive gains and the real-world potential for artificial intelligence to bring benefits – and not dystopian visions of the end of humankind – among many other technologies that are developing rapidly, there are a multitude of opportunities to bring in new revenue, making this arguably the most exciting time to be involved in the channel. This awards ceremony showcases some of the best it has to offer. I hope you enjoy the show and have a safe journey home afterwards.
Dan Parton
A hearty hello to everyone and welcome to Stockies 2024. I’m Trish, interim editor of UC Advanced , the magazine that takes a fresh look at the Unified Communications industry from the perspective of MSPs, Distributors and Resellers.
cabinets, because they are well deserved. The enterprise technology and communications sector has had a number of winners and nearly-made-its in 2024 too. A few maturing categories are seeing stagnant and small declines in volumes, but the value metrics are almost always positive, based on rises in inflation and the magnitude of innovation. Innovation will drive growth in the UC&C sector. There is not a week that goes by when we are not informed of the latest platforms, marketplaces and products embracing AI and incorporating it into designs, launches and company systems. I can’t wait to see how far the industry takes it. Enjoy the Speciality awards showcase and hope you have a fabulous Stockies night!
My congratulations list is full of winners that have been and those that are yet to be announced. It is only fair that I start with those vendors, distributors, resellers, products and people who were nominated earlier this year. It is such an achievement just to be nominated, because the results are data-driven, there are no entry fees or judges, and so well done to everyone who was nominated, and to those who subsequently made the shortlists – an incredible achievement. A big congratulations to the winners from the Technology & Storage Show, the Printing & Peripherals Show, and the winners from the AV-UCC Integration Show. I hope your Stockies trophies take pride of place in showcases and display

Metrics Explained
Decision-making can be overwhelming, even with enough data to map our course. We need the proper tools to make decisions, backed by business intelligence. At Stock in the Channel , our dedicated analysts have cultivated a sophisticated suite of metrics, refining them over the years to provide unparalleled insights for strategic decision-making in the channel.
Vendor metrics
Our BI engine sifts through billions of data points, ranging from stock levels and search data, to pricing levels and implied sales. The resulting metrics cover a wide spectrum of categories, offering a panoramic view of the entire channel. Whether it’s laptops, data storage, or printing equipment, our metrics provide a comprehensive understanding of the market landscape at a glance. We independently observe the rises and falls of products in the channel, gleaning insights of wider market trends, competitive dynamics, and consumer preferences. The efficacy of our metrics was showcased in the selection process for the prestigious 2023 Stockies Awards . These metrics not only nominated but also standardised the picking of winners in the first-ever awards show of its kind. For instance, when evaluating a brand, the trendsetter rating was carefully balanced against price stability,
simplifying the selection of the top brands per category in the channel. Distributors were monitored using their sales-to-search ratio, which quantifies how well they move trending products that are out of stock in wider distribution, thus besting their competition. The data we analyse are thus aggregated into top- level insight on the channel, also taking into account market share and how much coverage a distribution channel has. For individual products, champions were identified using the novel S4-metric, measuring the time between a product being seen on Stock in the Channel , right down the funnel along their first day stocked, searched and sold. Explore the comprehensive list of metrics that fuelled the success of the Stockies Awards by visiting https://stockies.co.uk/metrics. Empower your business with insights that pave the way for success in a rapidly evolving market.
