How good of a partner are you to your vendors?

Strong vendor relationships are a secret to success! Many designers do not think about their vendors until there is a problem. This approach does not allow to maximize the partnership. Getting to know your reps, your customer service people, and marketing team can enhance your bottom line and the customer experience you provide to your own clients.

Learn Liz and Cheryl's eight best tips for getting the information you need from your vendors and not getting just want you need but how to make it a win win for the both of you.
