A new book for wholesaler-distributors shows how to boost bottom-line profits through more systematic and market-driven pricing. The 167-page manual, Capturing Value: Pricing Management for Distributors, counsels wholesalers to develop corporate-level, pricing management.
The book offers instructions on how to build and maintain market-driven pricing using information readily available. Authors Scott E Benfield and Jayne E Baynard also offer insights on:
-
How to bid vendor-managed inventory contracts.
-
How to avoid a pricing war and how to minimize the damages when you can't.
-
How to devise an e-commerce strategy which permits customers to pay for only those services needed.
