Keith Hopper:

  …rooting the VRM opportunity in us vs. them, emotionally-driven arguments is an unlikely way to pave a path towards better relationships between customers and vendors, and I believe better relationships is ultimately the goal of VRM. The more I learn about VRM, the more I hear about the importance of benefits for both the buyer and the seller.

  1. Yeah, that’s good.

    A lot of thinking around the VRM value proposition to business is in the Buyer Centric Commerce Forum work from a couple of years ago – the Mitchell / Henderson work is very useful in today’s context.
