The B2B Wholesale Manual: Buying Smart

Stop Paying Retail

If you are buying paper from a stationer, you are paying for their rent, their AC, and their profit. If you use more than 20 reams a month, you are ready for wholesale.

Step 1: calculate Your "Real" Volume

You probably use more than you think. Accounting, HR, operations — tally it up. If you hit 500 reams a year, you can negotiate.

Step 2: The Bulk Discount Ladder

Wholesalers work on volume. - 500 reams: Entry level savings (20%) - 2000 reams: Free logistics (additional 5-10% saving) - 5000 reams: Priority pricing (maximum saving)

Pro Tip: Pool your order with a neighboring business to hit the 2000 ream tier and unlock free shipping.
