Put a number on the grind
Pick a role, adjust the benchmarks to match your business, and add everyone on your team doing that job. One Handler serves all of them — which is where the number stops looking like a per-seat tool.
Where the line sits
What a Handler takes off a Vendor Manager
7 of 13 responsibilities a Handler can own outright — and 6 that need a person, which is what the reclaimed hours go back into.
Handle-able7
- Handle-able: Supplier onboarding data entryCollecting supplier details, bank information, product data and compliance documents and entering them into the platform follows a defined checklist. A Handler owns it end to end, taking onboarding from days to hours.
- Handle-able: Product listing creation and updatesTurning supplier spreadsheets, PDFs and images into the marketplace's own taxonomy and pushing listings via API or admin is structured and repeatable — a Handler does it at catalogue scale.
- Handle-able: Catalogue QA and nightly auditsChecking pages for broken images, missing attributes, wrong pricing and SEO gaps is pattern matching. A Handler audits the whole catalogue overnight — a check that is never economical by hand.
Stays human6
- Stays human: Supplier relationship strategyDeciding which suppliers to prioritise, negotiate with or offboard takes commercial judgment, relationships and a long view.
- Stays human: Contract and terms negotiationNegotiating pricing, exclusivity, returns and trading terms needs human authority, trust and negotiation skill.
- Stays human: Escalation and dispute resolutionA disputed invoice, a missed critical delivery or a product recall needs judgment and a decision made fast by someone accountable.
