The Same Methodology, Brought to a New Industry
Joincom entered the telecom distribution sector in 2023. Working with telecom carriers, we recognized the same familiar pain points — outdated operations, lack of systems, compliance risks — and brought the same proven methodology from hospitality, e-commerce, and offline promotions.
The Reality of Telecom Distribution in China
China's three major telecom carriers (China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom) sell packages, devices, and value-added services through nationwide distribution networks. This is a massive market, but the distribution layer has long been heavily dependent on a traditional model of "offline stores + manual ledgers" — loose management, accumulating compliance risks, and lagging data.
Lack of System Support
Most distributors still rely on paper ledgers or Excel to manage daily operations. Inventory, orders, commissions, and contracts are scattered across different spreadsheets. Decisions depend on experience, making it difficult to expand into new markets or product categories.
Accumulating Compliance Risks
Package sales involve multiple compliance requirements including real-name authentication, consumer rights protection, data privacy, and telecom regulations. Under the traditional model, compliance review relies heavily on manual experience, leaving risk exposures.
Difficulty Managing a Flexible Workforce
Distribution networks rely heavily on part-time promoters and field sales staff. The traditional "phone calls + Excel" management approach is inefficient and faces compliance challenges — especially in settlement and tax filing.
Not a Pivot — Bringing the Same Capabilities to a New Industry
Over the past 13 years, Joincom has proven the value of its "distribution + compliance + digitalization" methodology in three industries — multi-channel distribution and contract price management in hospitality, multi-platform operations in e-commerce, and task assignment and anti-fraud in offline promotions.
Entering telecom distribution wasn't a cross-industry experiment — it was bringing a proven methodology to a new industry. Specifically, Joincom provides telecom distributors with:
What We Provide to Telecom Distributors
Distribution System Enablement
Replacing traditional manual ledgers with a digital management system. Covering core modules including order management, inventory monitoring, commission calculation, contract archiving, and sales dashboards — upgrading distributors from "record-keeping" to "business management."
Compliance Framework Export
Adapting the compliance design framework built in Joincom's hospitality and e-commerce operations to the telecom industry. This includes real-name authentication processes, consumer rights protection, data privacy management, anti-money laundering review, and compliance checks and process optimization.
Anti-fraud Mechanisms
Leveraging data-driven anti-fraud capabilities built in offline promotion operations to identify high-risk patterns such as cashout orders, fake activations, and abnormal cancellations. Using a rules engine + AI-assisted identification approach to reduce financial and compliance risks for distributors.
Flexible Workforce Compliance Coordination
Through the LingGong platform, providing compliant settlement services for distributors' part-time promoters and field sales staff — so distributors can focus on sales while delegating workforce compliance coordination to a specialist platform.
