Strong Numbers announces beta partner program for pricing product |
| Company to Launch First Real-Time Product Price Ticker
For Retailers and Manufacturers
Strong Numbers today announced the creation of its Marketview Beta Partner Program to assist in the development of the company’s new pricing product. Developed specifically for leading retailers and manufacturers, Strong Numbers Marketview assists companies with optimizing price, predicting the impact of key product decisions and managing inventory. Strong Numbers Marketview supplies retailers and manufacturers with custom feeds of demand-based pricing information, the best measure of what consumers are currently willing to pay for specific products. This pricing information is based on actual transactions and helps pricing professionals to optimize prices and avoid excess inventory. Manufacturers will have a valuable resource for setting the MSRP or MAP and monitoring product lifecycles. Retailers will use this information to help determine initial prices and decide when to discount or liquidate items in order to minimize margin erosion. The pricing information is currently available in four vertical categories: consumer electronics, computers, toys and sporting goods, and will extend to additional categories in the coming months. The Strong Numbers Marketview pricing database covers more than one million popular products and contains comprehensive information dating back to 1999, giving companies a valuable history of product and pricing trends for every season. The pricing information is delivered to customers via a standard Web interface. As part of the Beta Partner Program, users will access the actual and up-to-date pricing information that applies to their specific line of business and will be given the opportunity to influence and shape the development, design and feature set of Strong Numbers Marketview. For information about becoming a part of the Beta Partner Program or to view a demo of the product, contact Mike Papell at 671-314-6688, ext. 24 or mike@strongnumbers.com.
