Learn how to build a reliable program that stops unauthorized resellers and reclaims control of your products on marketplaces.

Understand How Resellers Acquire Inventory and How To Stop Them

Why is Marketplace Reseller Management So Hard?

Amazon prioritizes customer value over brand loyalty, rotating among available sellers. If another seller’s product is less expensive than yours and offers the same delivery promise through Prime, that one rogue price cut can drag down your entire channel. Learn what levers you can pull to become more competitive and beat out other sellers for the buy box.

Discover the Inventory “Leaks” That Lead to Unauthorized Resellers

Resellers can obtain inventory from a plethora of places, including 2-step distribution or return pallets. Despite how product was obtained, explore your enforcement options and which policies align best with your brand’s needs.

Which Policies and Enforcement Methods are Recommended?

Authorized Reseller Agreements and MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) policies are common, but the best approach to reseller management and enforcement is with a UPP (Unilateral Pricing Policy) agreement. Read about which parties this type of policy impacts and how to enforce it in our comprehensive white paper.

How To Effectively Run a Long-Term Reseller Management Program

Even with the best policies, organizations need to be aligned for long-term reseller management success. From internal team members and departments, to legal counsel and automatic tracking software, get access to our top partners for MAP & UPP tracking, reseller discovery, and automated enforcement workflows for ongoing brand protection.
