Dollars Into Profit: Solutions to Grow Your Bottom Line 

Available on-demand

Every distributor’s sales dollar takes a long journey from the top of the P&L to the bottom, where it turns into operating income after being eaten away by the cost structure.  

Distributors know that to get more of those sales dollars to turn into profit, they need state-of-the-art technologies:  

• Demand Generation: CRM, ecommerce, marketing automation  
• Pricing/Margin: Pricing analytics, price management, accurate costing  
• Vendor Management: Rebate and co-op management; efficient payables 
• Financial Management: Accounting, AR, AP 
• Inventory Management: Forecasting, purchasing, receiving 
• Data Management: Products, customers, employees, suppliers  

Distributors must have systems to manage these areas to maximize sales opportunities and cash generation.  

Developing and implementing these architectures takes expertise. Watch on-demand to hear from our experienced panelists, who will help you make the most of them.
