Beyond PIM for B2B Industrial Manufacturers

There is now one interconnected digital shelf for buyers to discover, research and shop for your products.

B2B buyers want to explore products online, find the most up-to-date digital catalogs, review specifications, and compare options.

Distributors are launching ecommerce sites and marketplaces at a rapid pace, moving beyond traditional, local branch-based distribution.

You must provide in-depth and up-to-date product content for the entire channel, including distributors, manufacturer reps, customer service and sales to stay competitive.

Deliver engaging product experiences for every channel, distributor, and end customer

You need an integrated platform that can:

Deliver engaging product experiences for every channel and every buyer

Store and manage data

Connect content with syndication

Purpose-built Digital Shelf Management for Manufacturers

Manufacturers’ product content resides along the digital shelf in various formats in all channels - distribution, reps, internal, and Internet of Things (IOT). Customers make decisions to buy from channels based on that content. When a customer searches the distributor's site, the page and position of the product can make or break a sale.

Manufacturers need control

Manufacturers need to control brand and content within the channel and optimize that information to outrank competitors. Manage your digital shelf to:

Enrich product content and digital assets
Syndicate to every channel
Analyze performance to improve and optimize for sales
Maintain data governance at scale
