With prices fluctuating due to inflation across the world, one of the most important risks to manage for businesses is to secure better cost efficiency and a consistent delivery of products, so their businesses can continue with less disruption. Annual (or long term) deals are a great way for businesses to do this. Here’s why!
Get the best discount locked! As a purchase manager or business owner, P&Ls can be a constant factor running at the back of the mind. Annual deals often help you secure the best possible discount on products and services that can in turn help reduce some of this worry.
Pro tip: At Dettol Pro Solutions, when you do an annual deal, you can lock in the discount for the whole year. As long as you’ve locked in those discounts, if the discount rates later drop, you’ll stay unaffected, as you will have secured the discount rate offered at the start of the contract.
BOX: Myth busted: “Annual deals mean I’m tied to one vendor”
Not necessarily! Look at how we do annual deals at Dettol Pro Solutions; there are no up-front payments or exit penalties. You can exit the deals at any time without penalties or operational headaches. We’re so confident of the quality of our products and delivery, we don’t think you’ll need to exit, but if you do, we believe in making even that an easy process for you!
Business owners and leaders know this: the longer you have done business with someone, the better they understand your needs and your processes. This means, they can serve you better and you have less frustration, and if any issues do come up, they can be resolved more efficiently.
Sourcing products and negotiating deals for your business isn’t the only thing you do, and we’re sure you don’t want to have to repeat this process every few weeks for products you need regularly. Consolidating your sourcing reduces internal workloads and soft costs, and not to mention, you can benefit from leveraged spend and better economies of scale.
Access to expertise is a great hidden benefit of annual deals. There are numerous examples of businesses that have benefited from expertise in the areas of accounting software and services, legal services, marketing platforms, and more. When you partner with a brand that has expertise in an area, you also get to enjoy the benefits of that expertise and opportunities to help you stay ahead.
Pro tip: At Dettol Pro Solutions, one of the best benefits of the annual deal is the access to cleaning and hygiene expertise in a constantly changing environment. This means you can have access to cost-and-operationally efficient cleaning protocols, hotspot guides and more!
Businesses can have a much better view of the budgets and spends when they’re in annual deals. Whether your needs go up and down, you know you can rely on a preferred discount thanks to your annual deal.
When you have a long-term relationship with a trusted partner, you can be assured of more reliable and consistent delivery. Your needs are locked in ahead and your partner can therefore have a good lead time to ensure availability and timely delivery.
Buying from trusted authorised sellers or directly from a brand helps prevent landing up with fakes or worse still your customers complaining about it.
Pro Tip: At Dettol Pro Solutions, fulfillment is always through our highly trusted distributors, helping you remove any worry you may have about authenticity of products.
If you are a supplier to other businesses, then it makes sense to opt for bulk buy along with a secured annual discount rate, so that you do not run out of supplies when needed. Getting supplies in bulk can help you in those peak seasons. If you stock supplies before season kicks in, you can offer "hard-to-put-down" offers to your customers!
For business owners, your time is probably best spent in developing more customers, more revenue for your business. For purchase managers, you’re buying a variety of products and services for your business. In both roles, an annual deal with a trusted partner gives you more time to focus on your core responsibilities that help your business grow.
At the end of the day, being in an annual deal with a trusted partner gives you more peace of mind, that your needs are being handled expertly and efficiently. How does it get any better!
