    Affiliated Distributors & Salsify Syndication Partnership

    Give your distributors the clean data they need to run their businesses and drive digital growth.
    Salsify has partnered with Affiliated Distributors to help manufacturers and suppliers create, manage, and publish great content to AD members.

    Reach 225+ Distributors With Ease

    Salsify makes it easy to build, manage, enrich and publish your content to AD.

    • Accelerate Your Time to Market

      Speed is a competitive advantage online. The faster you can get your content to your distributor partners, the faster those products are available to sell to your end-customers.

      “This solution enables you to syndicate your product content directly to the AD Network of independent distributors in one click.”

    • Manage Your Product Content

      Success online requires a balanced Product Information Management (PIM) solution. Manufacturers must standardize, centralize, and control core data while giving business teams the autonomy to manage, enrich, and optimize downstream product experiences.

      Salsify gives you the ability to centralize, manage and enrich your content with ease, for AD and beyond.

    • Publish Accurate and Complete Product Content

      AD’s proprietary data process ensures your product content is enriched and standardized for distributors.

      With one automated connection to AD, you can provide your distributors with clean, high-quality data that drives sales and accelerates speed to market.

    Salsify and Affiliated Distributors Solution Features

    • Upload, Organize, and Manage Product Data Faster

      To power their businesses and drive sales in today’s dynamic, digital environment, AD distributors need complete and accurate product content. But where is your content? Many manufacturers like you have content spread across their ERP, spreadsheets, and even print catalogs. This may make it difficult to collect, organize, and publish to AD.

      Using the right PIM solution can help simplify your product data management process. Your team can easily locate accurate data whenever you need it and quickly distribute relevant data to your partners from a single place.

      With Salsify, you can build a central source of truth for all of the product data required to win on AD member sites, including product images, spec sheets, videos, and content. Also, gain automated formatting capabilities to ensure assets will always be delivered in the optimized aspect ratio and size. 

    • Optimize Syndication to 225+ Independent Distributors 

      Clean data powers modern commerce. With Salsify & AD, you ensure that you’re arming your independent distributors with the robust, clean data they need to run their businesses and drive sales of your products, directly from your product content source of truth - Salsify.

      With the AD syndication channel, you’ll be providing your product content to AD for direct access to AD’s network of over 225 independent distributors across verticals like Electrical, Industrial & Safety, Pipes & Valves, Plumbing, HVAC, and Bearings & Power Transmission—all through a single, automated data feed.

    • Adapt Core Data for Any Channel Partner

      Syndicating content to multiple distributors with different requirements can be a complex process.

      Every product detail page (PDP) experience is different, and the requirements are constantly changing. Distributors are continually trying to edge each out and differentiate their experiences for shoppers, and they’re rapidly — without notice — changing their requirements.

      Map and transform core product data to each channel partner to ensure content stays consistent and accurate across every channel while adhering to each channel’s unique requirements and best practices.
