The Outlook for
Wholesale Distribution in 2012 A Survey of Key Business Objectives and Challenges Among Mid-Market Wholesale Distribution Companies
2.
White Paper
Executive Summary During the last quarter of 2011, NetSuite undertook a survey on the state of business within the mid-market wholesale and distribution (WD) industry. The results were both positive and striking. Despite the challenging environment of 2011, over 69% of respondents were optimistic about their prospects for the near term, with close to 99% believing business will either improve or remain steady into 2012. A majority (65%) of mid-market WD businesses are focused on achieving a balance between revenue growth and cost savings, with another 30% focused on just revenue growth. Profitable growth through new products, new channels, efficient automation and streamlining of business processes is the mantra for 2012. This optimism continues from 2010, when our survey found that companies were focused on both revenue growth and cost savings. This year’s survey makes it clear that mid-market WD companies are ready to grow their businesses sustainably in 2012. © NetSuite 2012. www.NetSuite.com R0112
3.
White Paper
Methodology NetSuite’s online survey of mid-market WD companies in North America was designed to better understand the industry’s economic health, business objectives, focus areas, key challenges and its use of software to support business processes. Participating WD companies met the following criteria: • Engaged in wholesale business or in the business of finished goods distribution • Annual revenues of less than $500 million USD. More than 80,000 contacts received an invitation to participate. With more than 250,000 U.S. businesses self-designating as being in the WD business, this was a significant undertaking and builds on an earlier industry assessment by the National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW). Among our respondents, 31% identified themselves as decision-makers regarding purchases of customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions at their companies. Almost 46% were influencers or recommenders of CRM and ERP. The remainder was split among users and implementers with no specific decision-making role. Expectations for Growth Optimism for growth is high in the wholesale distribution industry, according to our survey results. More than 69% of respondents expect their companies’ growth to improve throughout 2012 compared to last year, a continuing trend of improvement from the trough of pessimism during the recession and the year following. Almost 30% expect their growth to remain about the same while less than 1% expect it to deteriorate, a remarkably low percentage that reflects a consistently positive outlook among wholesale distribution companies.

White Paper
Business Focus on Growth and Cost Reductions To drive their distribution business, the majority (65%) of respondents are focused on achieving a balance between revenue growth and cost reductions. About 28% of respondents are zeroing in on revenue growth, while only 7% are looking strictly at reducing costs. Growth is definitely back on the agenda! The survey illustrates that distributors don’t view pure cost-cutting as a sound strategy. Clearly, distribution leaders see significant growth opportunities and are aggressively pursuing them, while strategically reining in costs.

5.
White Paper
Key Priorities The majority (81%) of wholesale distribution leaders identified revenue growth as their number-one priority for 2012. This is closely followed by the next two priorities: keeping and delighting customers (73%) and ensuring profitability (70%). Respondents also identified reduced business costs (57%) and employee productivity (49%) as key priorities for 2012. The selection of these priorities suggests that revenue and profitability continue to be front and center for wholesale distribution companies. Additionally, companies recognize that it is more expensive to acquire new customers and thus continue to remain focused on maintaining and growing their existing customer base. Keep revenue growing Keep and delight customers Focus on profitability Reduce business costs Better enable my employess to perform Reduce paperwork, data entry and redundant processes Improve supply chain communication and integration Get better visibility in to company performance for decision-making Reduce receivables (get cash faster) Reduce inventory on-hand Enable employees / partners working out of the office / at other location Enable employees / partners with 24/7 access to key business systems To find out more, contact NetSuite Inc. at 1-877 NETSUITE or visit www.netsuite.com. © NetSuite 2012. www.NetSuite.com The Outlook for Wholesale Distribution in 2012 5 | 16
6.
White Paper
Plans to Grow Revenue A solid 61% of respondents are looking at adding new products or product categories in order to drive revenue growth. Adding in additional sales venues or channels (56%) came in at a close second. Less than 25% are considering price increases as the way to increase revenue, suggesting continued price and margin pressure among wholesale distributors. To find out more, contact NetSuite Inc. at 1-877 NETSUITE or visit www.netsuite.com. © NetSuite 2012. www.NetSuite.com The Outlook for Wholesale Distribution in 2012 6 | 16
7.
White Paper
Plans to Control Costs Almost two-thirds (65%) of wholesale distribution leaders cited improving employee productivity as their key strategy for reducing costs in the near term. In addition almost 54% are planning to modernize, streamline and automate business processes, which bears directly on employee productivity by relieving them of manual data and order management chores to focus on value- added customer and revenue growth initiatives. Directly related to continued cost increases for fuel and other commodities, 36% of respondents are looking to how they can reduce transportation costs. Indicating the relative health of the industry, a very small percentage of respondents are considering laying off staff or cutting salaries, hours or IT budgets.

8.
White Paper
Priorities for New Technologies Asked which new business technologies they are exploring, the largest percentage (46%) cited ecommerce as a potential way to improve business productivity and efficiency. Consistent with the earlier result of distributors looking at additional channels to drive revenues, distributors see ecommerce as a way to fuel growth without substantial increases in cost. Ecommerce was also ranked highly in last year’s survey, in the second position. Initiatives for cloud computing or Software as a Service (SaaS) came in a solid second with 42%, as more distributors take a serious look at the cloud model to reallocate IT budget and more easily manage their business. This is a major change from a year ago when SaaS was cited by just 21% of respondents, in fourth place on our list. Coming in a close third and consistent with the focus on customers was CRM technology (41%).

9.
White Paper
Requirements for Business Software When asked about the most important software requirement for business operations, 36% of respondents named support for all business processes. The old piecemeal approach has proven itself to be too costly, too complex, too fragile, too limiting. Wholesale distributors appear to be dissatisfied with point tools and single- purpose solutions that often require costly integration, maintenance and upgrades, and that can hinder employee productivity. Meanwhile, 26% view functionality specific to wholesale distribution as the most important requirement for software. These distributors recognize that software with built-in industry best practices offers a considerable advantage over generic applications. Which is the most important software requirement to run your business Integrated shipping, ecommerce, and self-service. Anytime, anywhere access to software Integrated ERP/finance and CRM Designed for wholesale and distribution Support for all business processes To find out more, contact NetSuite Inc. at 1-877 NETSUITE or visit www.netsuite.com. © NetSuite 2012. www.NetSuite.com The Outlook for Wholesale Distribution in 2012 9 | 16
10.
White Paper
Requirements for Profitable Growth Close to half (44%) of wholesale distributors view increasing sales efforts (without dramatic cost increases) as the most important requirement for profitable growth. This is consistent with other survey results that show distributors looking at technology such as ecommerce to increase their reach without the added cost of a direct sales force. Maintaining or increasing product margins is also highly regarded as a method for profitable growth among distributors (21%). Lastly, distribution companies continue to be focused on inventory management (16%) as a way to ensure profitable growth. Increasing sales effort without dramatically increasing the cost Maintaining or increasing product margins Managing inventory investment and replenishment Pricing and cash management Better coupling of demand and supply Reduction of IT expenses To find out more, contact NetSuite Inc. at 1-877 NETSUITE or visit www.netsuite.com. © NetSuite 2012. www.NetSuite.com The Outlook for Wholesale Distribution in 2012 10 | 16
11.
White Paper
Inventory Management Strategies Asked about how they managed inventory, 31% of respondents said that they are relying on demand planning as the key strategy. Companies are using demand planning to better adapt to volatile market conditions, fast- changing customer requirements and long (or erratic) lead times in global importing and exporting. Vendor management is also critical (25%) as well as turnover management (24%). Given that the industry has cost efficiency at a top priority, distribution businesses are clearly looking to demand planning as an engine that can reduce costly stock-outs and help them maintain optimal inventory levels.

Aligning Business Operations with Strategic Goals According to 40% of respondents, having complete information is key to aligning their business operations with their strategic goals. As in many industries, distribution businesses depend on quality information. Performance will rise or fall depending on the accessibility, timeliness, relevance and quality of information. This emphasis on complete information aligns with the top-ranked characteristic of distribution software—that it support all business processes. Distribution leaders appear to be looking to understand their operations in a comprehensive, unified business model.

Consistent with other studies, 28% are still unfamiliar with SaaS and another 33% are evaluating its viability.
