Fit for Change

This past week AOP Technologies sales team went through an awesome distributor sales training program through Festo's Fit for Change. Not only did we grow as a group on a professional level, we gained so much knowledge to benefit our vendors as well as our customers. 

What we got out of this experience was some invaluable information that we as a whole team can use to train our sales force to be Consultative Sales Professionals. We are not looking for a hard sale, to push our vendor’s products, or to get our customers to purchase the product that will give us the greatest margin. We are here to break the barriers of listening to effectively hear your needs and consult with you to determine the best products to provide to you, for your projects specific needs.  

What I took away from this the most was, that our customers are our life line. We are here to serve them, consult with them, build lasting relationships, and really listen to what your needs are.  We would like to thank the Festo team for taking the time to open our eyes and help us become better Sales professionals.

Here at AOP Technologies, we are FIT FOR CHANGE.

"Development of long-term durable customer partnerships, based on providing real value, is our primary objective. We know that our success depends on your satisfaction."

Welcome to the AOP Technologies blog!

  Founded in 1963, Air-Oil Products Inc. (AOP) began as a Parker Seal distributor. Soon thereafter, pneumatic products were added to our company's offering. For many years, like most distribution companies, we fielded one sales team to handle both seals and pneumatics. While the diversity of the product mix AOP offered was highly valued in the market, handling both product groups with a single sales team doesn't ensure the highest level of product application knowledge. This "knowledge gap" was resolved in 1998 with the creation of two distinct product groups: The AOP Seal Group and The AOP Pneumatic Group.

  In 2002, Air-Oil Products became AOP Technologies, Inc. We also significantly expanded our value added / contract manufacturing capabilities. Today AOP Technologies has three distinct divisions -- Integration, Distribution and Aerospace. We integrate our top brand product lines into customer focused assemblies. We provide quality pneumatic, sealing and automation products, as well as application and design assistance. And, we provide procurement expertise to the Aerospace industry.
