Marketing channel management plays an important role in the corporate marketing mix. Starting from suppliers, products need to go through a series of processes and activities to reach the hands of consumers. As a carrier, the channel bears the function of realizing the normal and efficient operation of these activities. In a long period of time, the other three strategies - product, price, promotion - of the marketing strategy mix occupy a more important position than the marketing channels. Many companies usually consider the marketing channel strategy only if the marketing objectives can not be achieved by product, price and promotion strategies. But we can imagine, any business, even if its products have good quality and diversity, its price is very competitive, or its promotions are very eye-catching, cannot pass the products and service to consumers without the sound and well-developed marketing channels, thus can not achieve the value of its products and services. In addition, in today's competitive market, product performance is not much different, the price difference between products is smaller and smaller, and the promotions are in lack of new ideas. The only factor that cannot be easily imitated and copied is channel. Therefore, the marketing channel plays an important supporting role for the other three corporate marketing strategies.With the deepening of China's market economy, the telecommunications industry has been in rapid development.
