With a lot of barber shops and salons closed during the pandemic, many of us have had to let go of our regular maintenance routines. The opposite is true for MDM.com. We’ve spent the last several months creating a better looking and more user-friendly homepage for you to view MDM’s market-leading content and exclusive industry data. 

Starting with the navigation bar at the top of the site, we’ve made readily available the topics, news, data and events you care about the most. All of our content is divided into six key categories, visible under the Topics menu: 

• Strategy 
• Sales & Marketing 
• Research & Analytics 
• Operations 
• Technology 
• Leadership 

If you’re looking for the latest and best content, you’ll notice each topic’s landing page leads you to editor-curated articles and blogs on that subject matter that we recommend reading first.  

Then, within each topic are subcategories that dive into more specific coverage. You’ll notice at the bottom of each article the topics and subcategories that apply to that article, such as COVID-19, Remote Sales or Earnings, so if you’d like more similar content, you can simply click on that subcategory. 

As you scroll down the homepage, you’ll find all of our latest content, followed by quick links to download the most recent white papers and reports. Below them is a lineup of our multimedia content — podcasts, webcasts and spotlight videos.  

You’ll notice the top navigation bar follows you as you scroll down, providing easy access to navigate throughout the site from anywhere on the homepage.  

New Features 

If you’re looking for information on a specific company, we’ve created a new Companies page, where you’ll find an alphabetic listing of all of MDM’s company-specific coverage. We are continually growing this coverage. If you don’t see listed your company or another company that you’d like to learn more about, please reach out to us at editor@mdm.com. 

Additionally, our annual Market Leaders listing of the top 150+ distributors in the U.S. has a more user-friendly format that is reorganized to bring you the most relevant information on these industry leaders. In fact, to make the best use of this feature, you will notice that we did not publish our August 10 issue of MDM Premium. Instead, we will have a double issue for August 25 that will include the 2020 Market Leaders listing. For now, feel free to check out the new streamlined 2019 list on the revamped MDM.com. You will find it under the Top Distributors tab in the navigation bar.  

We hope you enjoy the new look of MDM.com!
