Purpose

This page outlines best practices for maintaining accurate, complete, and reliable pricing data on Furnish Near Me. Consistent pricing helps retailers merchandise your products with confidence and ensures your brand is represented accurately across every connected retailer shop.

Pricing data is one of the most important factors in how your products perform on Furnish Near Me. Retailers depend on this information to set prices, plan assortments, and present your products to shoppers.

Providing thorough, accurate pricing not only helps retailers but also strengthens your brand’s position in the marketplace.

Outdated or missing pricing is one of the biggest causes of retailer frustration. Make sure your pricelists are refreshed regularly so retailers always see your latest information.

Recommendations:

• Update pricelists at least quarterly, or whenever price changes take effect.

• Notify FurnitureDealer.Net before major updates or product line adjustments.

• Provide updated data files in the same format each time to streamline processing.

Why it matters:

Timely updates prevent confusion, pricing errors, and lost sales opportunities. Retailers will trust and prioritize brands that maintain current data.

Providing multiple price types gives retailers flexibility and confidence when pricing your products.

Whenever possible, include:

• Wholesale Cost – used for accurate selling price calculations.

• MSRP – provides a reference retail value if wholesale isn’t shared.

• MAP – helps protect your brand’s advertised price integrity.

Example:

A manufacturer that supplies wholesale, MSRP, and MAP for every product gives retailers full pricing context—enabling faster quoting, better merchandising, and fewer questions from sales staff.

If you’re not ready to share wholesale pricing, start with MSRP and MAP. Some data is always better than none.

Consistency helps ensure your updates are processed quickly and accurately.

Tips:

• Use consistent column names and SKU identifiers across versions.

• Include the same set of price types (e.g., cost, MSRP, MAP) in every update.

• Avoid rounding inconsistencies—provide clean, numeric values.

• Clearly label each version (e.g., “Standard Wholesale Q3 2025”).

Why it matters:

Predictable, consistent files reduce processing time and minimize errors during upload.

When releasing new versions or restructuring your pricing, communicate your intentions clearly to the FurnitureDealer.Net team and your sales reps.

Include details such as:

• What’s new or different from the previous version

• Which retailers or programs are affected

• Whether any older versions should be retired

Example:

If you’re consolidating multiple regional pricelists into a single national version, note that change so FDN can align retailer connections correctly.

Even with automated version management, it’s helpful to review which retailers are connected to which pricelists.

• Confirm preferred or regional assignments are still accurate.

• Reassign inactive or legacy dealers as needed.

• Coordinate with sales reps to verify correct assignments in each territory.

Regular reviews prevent outdated program links and keep retailer pricing aligned with your current business structure.

Your pricing data is only as strong as the processes behind it.
Coordinate between your internal departments—sales, finance, marketing, and operations—to ensure everyone is aligned on pricing strategy and timing.

Tip:

Establish an internal contact responsible for pricing updates and communication with FurnitureDealer.Net.

A single point of contact helps maintain consistency and reduces turnaround time for updates.

When you maintain clean, current, and complete pricing data, you make it easier for retailers to represent your products accurately.

That leads to:

• Fewer support questions from retailers and reps

• Faster adoption of new products

• Greater retailer confidence and loyalty

• Stronger, more consistent brand presence

In short:

Accurate pricing data builds trust. Retailers who trust your data are more likely to feature your products, promote your brand, and sell more of your merchandise.
