Membership in The School Place offers several financial benefits.

Gross Profit Sharing from On-line Sales

The majority of the gross margin generated through each on-line sale is distributed to the referring dealer (or to the dealer geographically closest to the consumer if no referring dealer exists). The remainder is reinvested in pay-per-click advertising and ongoing expenses relates to operation of the web site.

Volume Discounts

School Place members receive volume discounts on all qualifying future purchases through Educators Resource. Members receive volume discounts on all purchases up to 47% off retail price, based on membership tier. Discounts are applied to the most popular vendors.

Just-in-Time Delivery

Just-in-time delivery ships the product to your store just before the consumer purchases it. This is accomplished through buying frequently in smaller quantities. With 95% fulfillment rate and 24-hour shipping, members can reduce their inventory dramatically, resulting in reduced cost and increased profits.

Special Terms

Members are eligible for additional special terms, including free freight allowances, co-op marketing allowances, and year-round extended terms on large orders.
