Sourcing products from multiple distributors and suppliers means more choice, higher margins, and the ability to shop around for the best price, and immediate availability. However, it's not worth your sales reps' valuable time to spend their day researching multiple 3rd-party catalogs and Web sites for the right deals.
ChannelOnline's powerful sourcing and procurement tools enable you to compare real-time pricing and availability from multiple distributors and suppliers in one place. Your sales and purchasing agents are able to source products easier and guarantee faster delivery to end-customers by ordering only from stocked warehouses. You can create purchase orders for any distributor or supplier and have your products blind-shipped or drop-shipped, with access to full shipping and tracking details.
