Ballin' on a Budget

By: Kim Teti

​I’m always trying to see where I can cut costs in my daily spending or get the best bang for my buck. I avoid the grocery store when I’m starving so I don't average out at 10 things per aisle added to my cart. I’ll go shopping when products are on sale, and I’ll try to figure out when stores are likely to have sales and do my shopping then – because who doesn't like a good discount?

All of this is relevant because suppliers come in all shapes and sizes. Some are on the mom-and-pop side of the spectrum and some are big corporations. The nice thing is that there are solutions for controlling your budget, no matter how big or small your business is.

A few what-ifs: What if you could reduce shipping costs? You can. You just need to access info on where certain companies do business and all the locations your products would need to be sent to. What if you could see what distributors’ pay habits were and if they were late on payments to reduce your risk and time spent? Another what-if ... what if you could easily determine prospects by seeing which distributors are actually interested in products in specific categories?
