As a job shop, you rely on your buyer relationships. You want more business, and new buyers are where you are going to find it. Keeping buyers satisfied is key to job shop success. Trends show that the buyer profile is changing, and their expectations also have evolved. Paperless Parts surveyed 350 Parts buyers, to understand their expectations, so that job shops are better equipped to meet them. Join Paperless Parts as they reveal the survey results and give you insight into what your buyers expect from you. They will discuss the profile of the buyers today and:

- What characteristics a buyer looks for in a job shop
- What expectations buyers have of their supply chain partners
- How to gauge price sensitivity and upsell where appropriate
