The rise of unauthorized sales of discounted products in marketplaces today is eroding the prices and margins for many businesses. Distributors and retailers have to reduce their prices to match the discounts on online marketplaces, and distributors and retailers are in turn demanding lower prices from manufacturers.

Whitney Gibson, partner at the law firm Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease and head of the internet brand and reputation group discusses this issue and ways brands are fighting back in this #PricingPodcast.
