Distributors face several common, daily pricing challenges impacting their profitability: underpriced insensitive and costly-to-serve items, small customers receiving below-market prices, and an overwhelming volume and complexity of contracts or exclusive price agreements. Fortunately, proven and sustainable remedies exist to address these challenges and recover the 200-400 basis points of margin they typically cost distributors each year. Join SPARXiQ’s Greg Smith in this webinar for an in-depth discussion of these problems, data-driven analysis of these problems, data-driven solutions, and client case studies that will help your company drive profitable growth – all day, every day.
