Overcome the Complexities of Online Commerce With Magento & P21

Distributors and manufacturers face stiff challenges; from the need to minimize operational costs to keep up with existing customer demands. To address these challenges, their online solution must be fully integrated with their existing ERP solution that can provide their organization with the tools necessary to grant customers and staff the ability to gain real-time visibility into every area of their distribution channel. With a proper online ordering environment, your customers can find products faster and prepare themselves better down the line.

The predictions of e-commerce as a way of doing business and as a possible threat to existing full-service distribution are day by day, becoming increasingly accurate. B2B buyers are more and more voicing their preference for an e-commerce solution for commodity purchases. In a recent Forrester survey of B2B buyers, the prediction is that by 2020 there will be one million fewer sellers in B2B ranks as buyers simply don’t need them.

DCKAP is a certified Magento Solution Partner. For over a decade we’ve built standards-based, high-performance e commerce sites that feature seamless integration with ERP’s such as P21 out of the box. Simply, DCKAP understands the value of your ERP system, and more importantly, how it should shape your ecommerce strategy.

The question we attempt to answer via this webinar is what does today’s manufacturer or distributor need to do to compete with well-financed e-commerce platforms that are challenging the commodity sale?
