The Problem

Chemical and ingredient suppliers lack the visibility and insight needed to fully understand their customers and identify the best growth opportunities.

01

Messy, Incomplete Customer Data: Key information like account hierarchies, applications served and buying behavior is scattered, inconsistent or missing entirely — leaving sales teams with blind spots.

02

Product Data Trapped in Silos: Technical and commercial product details remain buried in PDFs and across disparate systems, making it impossible to connect customer needs to the right products.

03

Customer Reluctance to Share Details: End-customers often avoid disclosing what they manufacture, limiting a supplier’s ability to uncover high-value opportunities or negotiate effectively.
