Is complex pricing sabotaging your profits?

Pricing should boost your profitability, not chip away at it.
Pricing should boost profitability, not chip away at it. But too often, wholesalers get tangled in complex pricing structures that quietly damage their bottom line. Multiple price lists, endless discounts and customer-specific deals sound great in theory but can quickly become difficult to manage.
When pricing gets too complicated, mistakes are inevitable, margins shrink unnoticed, and teams waste precious time untangling the mess.
At Orderwise, we think pricing, forecasting and cash flow management should be clear, simple and connected.
The 'hidden' costs of disconnected pricing and forecasting
Complex, manual trade pricing and disconnected forecasting doesn't just waste your team's time; they directly impact your cash flow and profitability:
- Lost revenue: Small errors, overlooked discounts, or incorrect pricing quickly add up, eating away at margins without anyone noticing.
- Customer frustration: Inconsistency in pricing leads to confusion and lost trust. Once trust is damaged, it's tough to regain.
- Wasted hours: Hours spent manually checking prices or correcting invoices could instead be spent growing your business.
Why pricing complexity spirals arise
Wholesale pricing is rarely simple. Bulk discounts, seasonal promotions, customer-specific deals and market changes all add layers of complexity. Without the right system, these layers pile up, multiplying risk and reducing agility.
Things get even more difficult when customers qualify for multiple discounts at the same time. Which price applies? Who gets which deal? Manually working this out is time-consuming and leaves room for error.
