The MAP Playbook

Choosing the right products and the right prices for them can be a difficult task. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you write a flawless MAP policy.

Where do you start when it comes to drafting a MAP policy?

Do you use MSRP as a starting point? Or will you establish an entirely independent price? What will you do to combat MAP violators? We’ll help you create a template that can help you establish a policy that will be easy to sell to your reseller network and will be respectful of your brand value.

MAP Enforcement Case Study

Skullcandy enforces strict MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) policies regarding the price points at which their authorized sellers are allowed to list their products on their respective websites and marketplace listings. To enforce this, Skullcandy was manually monitoring their resellers’ sites. It was tedious, costly, and extremely inaccurate, especially since they could only check the sites once every few days. This often meant that resellers could continuously change their prices and violate Skullcandy’s price policy without getting caught.

Read on to see how Skullcandy was better able to protect their brand with automated MAP monitoring and unauthorized seller detection.

Insurance and Customer Communications Management (CCM) – Give Consumers What They Want

For a long time, insurance companies were in the driver’s seat when it came to customer communications. Not anymore. A combination of rapidly expanding digital technology and changing demographics has transformed the interactive landscape and the customer engagement model.

Digital consumers are changing the rules of the game. The customer is now in control more than ever before, with numerous purchasing options, vast online research tools and multiple touch points. For many transactions, consumers increasingly prefer digital channels, which make content universally accessible by mixing media (graphics, text and video), tailoring messages (providing discounts, location or demographic information) and adding social connectivity (allowing communities or friends to build around themes and needs).

This paper will explore the significant shift in consumer communication expectations, the traditional hurdles that insurers face and how these can be overcome with a broad CCM vision based on practical, achievable business goals. The fact is that insurers have not kept pace with rapidly emerging customer needs. It is critical to be relevant and speak to the customer in their voice. If you can’t communicate with customers in the way they want, someone else will.
