“We had three parts to the challenge, which was to simplify the process without ‘breaking anything’ or incurring implementation costs, have better reporting, and reduce unmanaged tail spend. These were the challenges we faced when we realized we could do business differently with Amazon Business.”

"We just started with Business Prime. In prior years there was an option for free shipping, but schools wanted to get products shipped faster and they were selecting options with shipping costs.

Now we are seeing a significant savings through Business Prime’s free shipping options.”
