We’re on a roll with the Top 100 Greatest Supply Management Tips of all Time! contest. Voting was heavily contested on the first two tips offered up by Supply Excellence readers.

And why not? The tips were valuable. And the author of the best tip gets a free pass to Aberdeen Group’s CPO Summit in Boston this November.

Let’s keep the momentum going today by rating the following submitted tip:

So, perfect your sales pitch! And be sure to tailor and refine your messages to meet the hot buttons of unique stakeholder groups.
