I will draft an exclusive dealer appointment agreement
Licensed US Attorney, Contracts Built for Scaling Businesses
About this Gig
Welcome. I am Eric Matthew North (U.S. Bar No. #115123), a licensed U.S. attorney specializing in commercial distribution.
When assigning a dealer to a specific geographic region or customer segment, clarity is paramount. Vague territorial boundaries or poorly defined sales quotas lead to channel conflict, underperforming dealers, and lost revenue.
I will draft a precise Dealer Appointment Agreement that clearly defines the parameters of your dealer's territory and legally binds them to your performance expectations.
Key elements I draft into your agreement:
- Clear delineation of exclusive vs. non-exclusive rights
- Specific geographic or demographic territory definitions
- Minimum purchase quotas and key performance indicators (KPIs)
- Rights to modify territories or revoke exclusivity
- Protection against dealers selling competing products
Ensure your dealers actively work to maximize your market share rather than simply sitting on a territory. I will construct a binding legal framework that aligns dealer performance with your goals.

FAQ
What is the difference between exclusive and non-exclusive?
An exclusive agreement prevents you from appointing another dealer in that specific territory. Non-exclusive allows multiple dealers.
How do we handle dealers who miss their quotas?
I draft clear termination and "loss of exclusivity" clauses so you can legally replace underperforming dealers without penalty.
Can territories be defined by zip code or state?
Yes. Territories can be defined by zip codes, states, regions, or even specific customer lists.
Is an appointment agreement different from a general dealer contract?
Yes. It specifically focuses on the granting of territory rights, sales targets, and the boundaries of the dealer's specific appointment.
Can I reuse this document for other territories?
Yes. I provide the final agreement in an editable Word document, allowing you to fill in new territories and quotas for future dealers.
