Back to EpisodesBar Vendor Relationships: How to Get Better Pricing, Support, and Training
Description
Most bar owners treat vendors like a delivery service.
That means they are probably leaving pricing, support, training, product knowledge, and market data on the table.
In this episode, I’m breaking down how to turn your vendor relationships into real business partnerships instead of simple order-taking conversations.
We’ll talk about what reps can actually provide, how to ask for better support, how to use supplier training with your team, and how to negotiate better terms when your state allows it.
Your vendors want you to sell more.
The question is whether you are giving them a reason to help.
If you are only talking to reps when you need product, this episode is for you.
