FAQ

Quick answers

Short answers for the questions that usually come up first.

Why show retailer markup opportunity?

Because wholesale pricing only works when the reseller still has room to mark the product back up to retail.

Does this replace a full wholesale pricing policy?

No. It is a planning calculator that helps you pressure-test a proposed discount before finalizing terms.
