Trade Only VISION is a fully integrated business management system through which distributors can manage all of their key business processes. When researching products, distributors can now check the ‘QCA Compliant Vendors Only’ option to quickly and easily narrow down their selection to those products and suppliers which have been granted QCA Accreditation. The Quality Certification Alliance is an independent, not-for-profit organization which provides a solution to the growing requirement for consistently safe, high quality, socially compliant and environmentally conscientious merchandise. To be QCA Accredited, manufacturers and importers must complete a rigorous and ongoing assessment of their compliance programs. Martin Varley, President and CEO of Trade Only Inc., commented: “In our team’s extensive experience of the promotional products industry we’ve seen over and over again the importance of working with quality suppliers, and QCA Accreditation is the next logical step. As a distributor it ensures that you’re protecting your clients’ brands by providing the best possible product for their campaign. Distributors that are using Trade Only VISION for their product research now have a simple and effective means of sourcing from QCA Accredited suppliers, protecting their reputation and their ability to service a long term relationship with their clients.” Brent Stone, Executive Director of the Quality Certification Alliance, adds: “We are extremely pleased that Trade Only shares our commitment to improving the industry’s ability to deliver safe and compliant products. Fortune 1000 companies continue to raise the bar on product safety and compliance expectations, along with their ability to vet their supplier chains to ensure they exist. “’Trust but verify’ is an accurate description of the position these companies and the distributors who serve them take, and the ability to quickly determine which suppliers can be trusted to deliver on this promise and protect your brand equity is critical in our fast paced industry.” For Further Information Contact: Liz Allen, Marketing Manager Email: liz.allen@tradeonly.com Telephone: 866-564-6249 ]]>

Of all of the ways Trade Only market our services, email marketing is the most cost effective, but it’s also the least reliable. Direct mail, advertising, and exhibiting at shows all offer pretty much guaranteed means of ensuring that our messages are viewed by the target market – you! However, B2B emails have an average ‘open rate’ of less that 20% - and the ‘click rate’ is closer to 10%. This is despite 50% of businesses making sure that their emails are targeted by geographic and demographic criteria, just as we do. It’s clear that more must be done to further refine the message and the people to whom it’s sent. ]]>

The question we're asking this week is whether it's better to deal with many suppliers or just a few, and I'd better declare a bias at this early stage of events - I favor dealing with a smaller number of suppliers where possible. Why? Well, in the first instance, the more I deal with a single supplier, the more likely they are to offer me discounted prices and longer payment terms. ]]>
